Dragic in the Forum Header

[slinslin]

Why exactly is ASFN trolling Suns fans with a header including Goran Dragic??

 

[leclerc]

Priceless. Send out the dragon!

 

[Chaplin]

I posted it in the Announcements forum for the new changes.

 

[elindholm]

"Trolling"? Like we're upset that he's now a role player making $25 million a year on a .500 team? I agree it's weird, but I don't consider it "trolling."

 

[Mainstreet]

When it is convenient, I'd like to see Devin Booker in the Suns forum header.

Was Dragic there before the changes?

 

[ColdPickleNachos]

If you really want to troll Suns fans, put Brandon Knight in the header!

 

[TJ]

Steve Nash, please.

 

[AfroSuns]

Steve Nash, please.

Agree! if possible, rotate Phoenix Suns legends.

 

[sunsfan88]

Steve Nash, please.

^this would be most appropriate. We had Larry Fitzgerald up there for ages, now its time to have 2 time MVP Steve Nash up there.

 

[TJ]

Bump.

Seriously, can we address this, or put up a poll?

 

[Covert Rain]

I love the idea of rotating Suns legends. That sounds cool.

 

[Shaggy]

The header design was done almost 2 years ago. We are going to have the changed soon.

If you don't have time I can design it for you. I Like Nash or the Rotating Idea... I can also put Booker-Nash-Majerle...

Admin can just let me know if you need a free service.

Yeah something similar to the Cardinals header would be cool.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Maybe you should replace Dragic with Dragan.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Bump again..

 

[Mainstreet]

I think Nash or Booker would be appropriate for the header.

Either looking back or looking forward.

What ever happened to Iceman and the other guy who own this site? I don't see them posting much. Did they get bored and move on to something else?

Shaggy posts on the movie board every so often.

I was listening to John Gambadoro a couple weeks ago, and he says one of the Suns insiders told him it was Goran Dragic, not Jeff Hornacek, that asked for Isaiah Thomas to be traded. Then he said when the Suns were committed to trading Thomas, Dragic went public with his request to be traded. The Suns reached out to Dragic and realized they had to trade Dragic. So he said that whole thing blew up on them. Dragic was one of my favorites, but less so after what Gambo said.

This is conjecture on my part, but maybe Dragic realized playing more two guard was really because of Bledsoe, and not so much Thomas. Maybe that was the change of heart. You know the Suns had to tell Dragic they had a Thomas trade in the works.

If true, this fits my theory the Suns had already committed to trading IT when Dragic demanded a trade. No wonder McDonough was furious.

 

[Yuma]

Yeah, supposedly McDonough's brother said he was forced into the trade, and that he really likes IT. He supposedly regrets that trade the most, according to his brother. I heard that on the radio here during an interview with one of his brothers. That whole family is amazing in the top jobs they hold. Their dad was a famous, too.

"McDonough is also the son of Boston Globe columnist writer Will McDonough, as well as the brother of ESPN/Monday Night Football sportscaster and former Boston Red Sox sportscaster Sean McDonough and current Arizona Cardinals vice president of player personnel Terry McDonough.[3] Ryan is also married to Valerie as of July 24, 2015.[4] - From Wikipedia"

I think most of that was known at the time. Dragic had just had his most successful season of his NBA career and actually liked Bledsoe and that combo. The Suns record that season with both Dragic and Bledsoe together was like 19-6 or something like that.

Then despite Dragic and Bledsoe's success, the Suns went and signed and drafted PGs (Thomas & Ennis) and I think that pissed off Dragic and he was even quoted later on in the season as saying how he hated playing SF and that he didn't like the 3 PG lineup. Dragic was always a poor defender so it made sense why he would hate playing SF cause that would make him even worse. Also dragic was gonna be a free agent so he knew he would lose touches to Thomas and Bledsoe and that wouldn't help him much on his next contract. Bledsoe didn't care about this because the Suns had just signed him to a long term extension for near max money.

I figured you would edit Ulis out of the equation.

IMO, the Suns traded for IT because he was was an absolute steal on a bargain contract. Tyler Ennis was a threat to no one. I think the Suns were looking for an opportunity to trade him.

I do think Dragic wanted to be the primary ballhandler thus his desire for a trade.
