Not according to the Suns GM who said they never received a list of teams.
tbh if the Sperms had just kept Dragic instead of traiding for Malik Hairston, this would be a much calmer situation. Who knows, Enrique might be in LA with Rin, teaching him his ways.
harlem would then have the goran dragic troll and it would be a very different spurmtalk.

Keep wishing Cubby.
He's a toss up to go to LA, which I think the Suns suspected, likely with Kevin Love, who lives LA and would be an ideal pick-n-pop mate for Dragic, which is likely why they were seemingly so flippant with the Lakers 1st. They needed a miracle to get it this year. Add Dragic and Love to Kobe, Randle, Hill, and maybe a Stanley Johnson and that "top-5" 1st is like 12-18 range.
The Heat would be lucky if he doesn't re-sign. Dragic is a talented player but he's not young or good enough for a max contract. They didn't give up much for him anyway aside from the draft picks. The Heat aren't known for building through the draft and Miami is a desirable destination for many FAs so I don't think they'd lose much if he leaves tbh.
Not even Slovenia has a large Slovenian community, so no.
I agree on this here. You know some team will give him his payday though, it is bound to happen and they will regret it later, but it will happen.
Seriously? Whatever you do for a living, do you do it for the money or so your company can be best in class? If you could be best in class by taking less money and living in a ty Be@ner filled city, wouldn't you? Isn't best in class what every worker really wants?
I don't give a anymore, he's Miami's problem, and soon to be Cubby's.

He would be a good fit with the Lakers and they can trade Lin. I bet he signs there in the offseason.
Lakers will be a playoff team with that lineup, but they won't win an NBA le. Love should stay in Cleveland.
Lakers won't be a playoff team again until Kobe retires, and they build through the draft.
Love ideals LA. He covets being "the guy" as does Dragic, who's openly stated he views LA as an ideal. They are both high usage pick-n-pop and are efficient at it. Throw in two top-7 draft picks and even more CAP space in 2016 when the CAP increases and Kobe and Hill's deals are off the books, and you have a strong foundation. Cleveland offers winning, but at the expense of numbers, reputation, fun. In LA he'll be a hero, not a scape goat.
Can't have too many high draft picks. Just a few, otherwise they cannibalize each other's development, production, etc.
Two back-to-back top-7 picks in two strong drafts plus valued FAs, and hope for more CAP space in the future is a smart play.
If the entire goal of your company was compete for a trophy that earned you national recognition and ample opportunity for fat endorsement deals, you might.
Have fun with that, Miami! LMAO! Enjoy paying Dragic $20m a year for the next 5. I'm sure he'll be worth every penny when he's 35.
The entire goal of an NBA franchise isn't to win championships. It's to make money. The majority of NBA players never win a ring, and the majority of the ones who do don't get many endorsements (think Matt Bonner or Danny Green). You have to make hay while the sun is shining in your career (no pun intended). Waiting around for a ring is not always a good investment.
The biggest NBA money makers where endorsements are concerned often haven't won a ring. Chris Paul, Blake, Melo, Durant, Westbrook, Curry... Kobe has and Lebron has, but who else?
I'm a big fan of Dragič and really happy for him - but I don't think I'll be able to root for the Heat...
With less than 2 million of us it's difficult to have a large community anywhere - even in our home country
A serious answer would be that the largest Slovenian community outside of Slovenia is in Cleveland, an estimated 50,000.
Well... Heat was the only good organisation out there where he could still do something in his primer. Allthough... this thing with Bosh now is extremely unfortunate.I'm a big fan of Dragič and really happy for him - but I don't think I'll be able to root for the Heat...

Lakers and Knicks are both years from assembling any decent team out there. And Indiana is also going nowhere with their current roster even with George healthy.
I never liked Lebron... but Riley, Spoelstra, Bosh, Chalmers and especially Haslem are all "likeable".
Wade... I can live with him
