I want $15 million a year!
Why only 10 tbh ?
I want $15 million a year!
I want a BJ from Kate Upton.
And the owners will be complaining that they're bleeding money in the next CBA.
10m for Dragic?
lol.
Sources: Rockets, Dragic far apart
By Marc Stein
The Houston Rockets are pessimistic about their chances of re-signing point guard Goran Dragic with the sides far apart in negotiations, according to sources close to the process.
The Rockets met with Dragic on Monday in Houston and were hopeful of reaching terms quickly with the Slovenian, who averaged 16.3 points and 7.3 assists in 32 games after the All-Star break following an injury to Kyle Lowry.
But Dragic left town without a deal, sources said, leading one source close to the process to say that the lefty's expected return to the Rockets is "not going to happen." Dragic is scheduled Tuesday to visit the Phoenix Suns, who dealt him to the Rockets at the 2011 trade deadline.
Dragic is said to be seeking an annual salary of at least $10 million and, according to sources familiar with his thinking, expects to be installed as the starter wherever he lands.

If Dragic lands with Phoenix, DOK will be in heaven. Makes drafting Marshall over Henson even dumber.
Ugh, don't leave Gogi
And if the Rockets pony up that kind of cash for Dragic, they'll regret it less than 24 hours later. They're going to soon regret that 25 mil they just ponied up for Asik.
@ GM Morey
If Dragic has to take less money (like 7-8 mil), I'm sure he can get it from a contender or at least a 2nd round playoff team and I'm sure he'd rather do that.
Signing Asik was a sign that the Rockets are not counting on anything better than a borderline playoff/1st round exit team in the West.
Morey
Negotiating the Asik deal before talking to Dragic was just plain stupid. You can't offer 8M/yr to a guy who averaged 3 ppg and then successfully play hardball with a guy who put up 18.0/8.4 as a starter for your team last year.
^ Exactly.
Why Dragic wasn't offseason priority number one for the Rockets is unexplainable and inexcusable. Morey may be a whiz kid and certified stats guru, but as far as common sense, he's truly a dumbass.
Another season of 40 wins and no playoffs is in store for this team.
What's worse is re ed ass Rocketfans over at CF would rather let Dragic walk and have Asik.
No kidding. They might potentially sign Dragic, Mayo and Beasley (they have the cap room to). If they did that and drafted Henson, they're an exciting young team with potential to make the playoffs.
If Kyle Lowry is starting at PG, I'm done with this team and declaring for free agency.
I'd be pretty upset if we essentially choose Asik over Dragic, especially since we signed Asik first because We can go over the cap to sign Gogi.
Houston's managers ... what the ? Asik >> Dragic in their opinion? Dragic should be priority nr 1 this offseason, no question about it. Paying a scrub 25 mil and not willing to offer a good contract to the guy everyone loved there -- hm...
What the do they want Beasley and Mayo for? That's going to be Warrick and Childress all over again. Beasley just sucks and Mayo is a role player who never lived up to the hype (I remember when he was considered a prospect at the level of Rose
Yeah, I don't care for Beasley at all and Mayo is just ok for now.
Rockets will visit with Jeremy Lin tomorrow in Houston, according to source.
The Rockets will offer a deal similar to the contract Dragic turned down, source said.

you Phoenix
Not to mention they traded Dragic + a first rounder for Brooks
Don't get me started on det
I'm at least glad to see they're going after Dragic and not afraid to admit mistake
I just wanna hear Lance Blanks have a press conference about how Michael Beasley has a great brain and is a great human beingWhat the do they want Beasley and Mayo for? That's going to be Warrick and Childress all over again. Beasley just sucks and Mayo is a role player who never lived up to the hype (I remember when he was considered a prospect at the level of Rose
