that's just dragon juice squirting out of his nose

 

[Jonas_steven]

I feel sorry for goran's face this year!

 

[Arizona_Sting]

ouch

 

[BPNAZ]

an outcome like tonight is what we should continue to expect going forward

there still isn't a bonafide go to guy on this roster. And while the whole, "its a different guy every night" is nice on paper, when you get down to it, in the long run, its not gonna add up to a lot of wins

should still win somewhere around 30-34 games

 

[BPNAZ]

also, ill say it again tonight, and ill continue to say it. Guys like Marcus Morris should NOT be on this roster next season

and same goes for Channing Frye. He's had his time here. He can't shoot anymore

id like to see Suns find a suitor for Dragic too. He can't shoot, hes a nice PG, but hes also shown lately he can't stay healthy either

Dragic hit 2 clutch 3s tonight. This is the first time the Dragon has been injured he hardly gets injured. Hes the only one with Basketball IQ on this team did you see how lost they were at the end of the game? 2/3 from 3. Coming off a Facial contusion, ankle sprain (still in high tops) and coming off of his wifes labor in which he couldnt go to practice on Monday or shoot around on Tuesday. And which he barely got sleep because of the labor?

Dragic is a fucking warriors were probably 7-1 or 8-0 with him........................

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

Is this dude seriously blaming Dragic for this loss. Do you see how bad Bledsoe was in the 4th without Dragic? All the pressure is on him. While Dragic was clutch tonight. With Dragic the suns win by 5.

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

I notice something else when Dragic is in. Hes able to call plays on the fly while Bledsoe throws some lob 18 feet outside the basket to Tucker. We wont win close games unless our highest IQ guard is on the floor. Dragic is also in much better endurance than Bledsoe. If hes going to be a max contract player he cant be on his hands and knees late letting Lillard drive right by him.

Im seriously starting to question this guys knowledge Bledsoe has been the go to scorer every night and the biggest surprise in the NBA so far hes playing like an allstar. I just dont think hes ready to take the game on by himself late he was horrible in the 4th quarter without Dragic. He needs Dragic in the 4th because hes not a great decision maker down the stretch he puts his offense in awkward positions and gives the ball to the worse offensive players like trying to get it to Tucker. Rather than pointing to space the floor or directing a play he just drives and dishes to Frye who was 0 for who knows what.

Bledsoe has played like an allstar but hes not experienced enough or smart enough yet. To run the offense late when you need a basket. Thats where a second point guard is clutch Dragic can run a set, or space the floor because hes very good at running the offense and then give it to Bledsoe. Bledsoe just doesnt know what to do late, and cant make the right decisions the one thing he can do is take the big shot but when it comes to creating offense for others late hes lost.

All of Dragic's injuries have kind of been freak accidents. He'll be fine, he's a tough kid.

 

[The Derski]

I really wanted to win this only because Blazers fans were talking a lot of shit on the ESPN convo. If Dragic doesn't get hurt we win by 5+.

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

He can make all his shots when he shoots with confidence those 2 3s he hit is what he can do on a regular night.

We also would of won just because of Dragics defense hes such an underrated defender. Green cant defend worth shit.

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

If Dragic plays vs the Nets its a blow out. No way the old ass Nets can keep up with Dragic, Bledsoe, Green, Goodwin, Plumlee. Etc.

 

[The Derski]

Yeah the Nets look horrible this season.

 

[The Derski]

And the T-Wolves look really freakin good.

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

Im not really a fan of Green late in the 4th quarter to be honest. His basketball IQ is way to low. And he cant defend at all.

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

Williams appeared to be fine following the collision, but Dragic was forced to the locker room and required stitches on his head. In addition to being away from the team recently for the birth of his son, Dragic has already dealt with toe, ankle, facial and now a head injury in this young season.

Why is this fucking happening this year?

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

I really dont want to go through another year of tanking. I hope Goran develops his consistant shot that he had in 2012 at the end of the year in houston or even last year at the beginning of the season. He shots with confidence on those 2 3s.

I just want to make the playoffs its been to long. Plenty of things we can do to land a superstar.
