On February 23, Beijing time, the Brooklyn Nets officially announced that the team has signed free agent Goran Dragic. As soon as this news came out, it immediately triggered many fans to discuss. After all, the Warriors, Bucks, Bulls, Nets, Clippers, and Lone Rangers have all been involved in the race to pursue Dragic.
However, the current head coach of the Nets, Stephen Nash, as Dragic's former big brother, the relationship between the two can be said to be both mentors and friends, and Nash is also aware of the ability of his little brother. According to relevant sources, he made a huge contribution to the Nets' recruitment of Dragic.
Dragic is a typical European defender who feels stable on the pitch. For some reasons this season, Dragic has only played five times for the Raptors, averaging only 8.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 18.0 minutes per game.
Of course, Dragic's ability is not limited to this, he averaged 13.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.4 assists last season when he was in the Heat. He shot 43.2 percent from the field and 37.3 percent from three-point range.
Dragic is 35 years old this year, though he's unlikely to play an All-Star like he did at his peak. But with his years of experience in the game, it is still possible to lead a second team in the team. As he grew older, Dragic's career was also a few seasons away. His goal this season is clear, to join a team that can compete for the championship, which can be achieved with the depth of the Nets' roster.
