I don't quite get the "Bledsoe vs Dragic" vibe that is happening with some fans. I've seen it here and other boards. They're both awesome players with different strengths, I personally feel like Bledsoe is the better of the two but Dragic is a freaking awesome player. Dragic is a much better pure scorer and better with his shot selection than Bledsoe. I think Bledsoe is a better passer, althought not much better than Goran and neither of them are particular strong distributors. But I give Eric the nod overall because of his defense. He is an elite defender while Goran is below average in that department. As a tandem they're spectacular, I really hope we keep both in the fold. And they also seem to get along very well.

And I disgree with the idea that Bledsoe has no basketball IQ. I just think he tries to force things too much and be a hero. Guys who dont understand the nuance of the game don't dominate defensively like he does and they don't see the angles he fans with some of his passes.

Agreed. This team is so much better with both of them.

Morris twins have to lead the league in travels.

Our offense is so much better when Goran is on the court. Our defense is so much better when Bledsoe is out there.

this is where Horny still frustrates me. He just doesn't know when to call the timeouts to stem the run.

I mean...that Frye shot was really the best shot we could get there?

17 point lead down to 3. Yuck.

as good as Dragic and Bledsoe are, I don't believe either one of them are really super leaders. That's definitely missing on this team. Someone who can calm the team and bring them together when crap's going haywire.

Wow... what a shot by Paul.

The refs are ramming us in the ass right now.

OMG... Frye needs to freaking die (basketball speaking).
