DoK tried to tell us, but we didn't listen.

This guy is clearly the best at what he does, and what he does is pretty fucking awesome.

Major props to DOK. He called this one a LOOOOONG time ago.

I, particularly, was very mean. I said the guy didnt even belong in the league in the pre-season and I was DEAD WRONG.

Draggy played like GOD tonight.

He's not that good. He's just like JJ Barea and Roddy Beaubois: annoying little pest that no one guards (because he's not good), so while not being guarded, he makes a bunch of shots. Anyone can do that.

I'm so proud of Dragic. I was always concerned about how he'd react to playoff pressure and he delivered. Hell they didn't need nash back in until it was freethrow time at the end. Hell Amare didn't even need to come back in. Wow.... Then again, I think all the pressure was on the spurs so perhaps that helped Dragic relax a bit since he had trouble the first 2 games, but Jrich picked up the slack in that case.

Wow.... Everywhere in the media I keep hearing 'Dragic' Also I didn't know 'Dragon' was an official nickname.
Dragic not Tragic

Has someone youtubed this? I only remember parts of last night tbh, but I remember seeing Dragic get interviewed at the end of the game and commenting on how bad ass his voice is.

It's gotta be youtubed pretty quickly, but basically Dragic nailed a 3 late in the 3rd quarter, kicked off the 4th quarter by dream shaking Dejuan Blair's fat ass, and scored 23 total 4th quarter points.

Sounds like Parker's first years...

Goran Dragic doesn't actually make shots, the ball jumps into the hoop out of fear.

For some reason, Goran's current look makes me think of.

Goran was always capable of doing what he did in Game 3. He's the fastest guy with the ball on the team, even faster than Barbosa. He's also the strongest and longest PG on the team, which means he's just a bad matchup problem for either of the Spurs PGs.

His biggest knock coming into the league was his shot, which he's more or less corrected in spite of his awful form. Now his biggest knock is he's pretty mediocre running the two-man game when he has to pass. So how you defend him is make him hit mid-range shots, because he's unlikely to give it up 10 feet and in off the dribble.

The biggest difference for him this year has been confidence and stability. It's why Phoenix's second unit was so good. He stopped trying to be Steve Nash and stuck to his strengths, which is driving, scoring, or kicking to the wings. He creates ball movement on the floor with his feet and penetration. But stop him short and he'll lose confidence and stop shooting.
