Looks like Goran Dragic may singlehandedly keep the Suns out of playoffs this year, or at least contribute greatly to that cause. Oh the irony. Steve Kerr must be enjoying this.
Steve Kerr seems like a good guy, so I don't think he would relish seeing this team's two captains in our current situation (keep in mind, Kerr said that Nash is the most meniachal person he's ever been around when it comes to improving his body and his game, and Kerr spent enough years alongside Michael Jordan that this statement says a whole lot about Kerr's respect for Nash).
But, it's been nearly two years since Kerr left. If he ever got any satisfaction from looking at the team he built and then looking at what his successors did.. I suppose an apt description would be.. they took Kerr's team, wrapped it up real tight in a tortilla with some refried beans, spoiled vegetables and mystery meat well past the expiration date, ate it, and splattered the digested waste onto the floor at the US Airways Center...? In any case, he didn't have to wait this long to be vindicated. He was a member of the commentating crew for this game:

This clip, featuring Hakeem Warrick, Hedo Turkoglu's ragged corpse, some homeless dude in a surprisingly realistic Vince Carter costume, and Josh Childress starting at center, was taken just 5 months after Kerr decided not to take a pay cut as the Suns GM.
But on the subject of Goran Dragic: the Rockets don't even need him. 15 years ago, they began their flawless execution of the "AZSPortsFans Message Board Secret to Success" Plan. They sucked, got Steve Francis, tanked a season or two, got the first pick in the 2002 draft, picked up a franchise 2-guard with Tracy McGrady, and have ridden Yao and TMac to like 8 titles, and all the while the Suns have been foolishly trying to get better by winning basketball games.
