Dragic: The Nets have to win this year, there's no excuse.

Golan Dragic, who has just signed a base salary contract with the Nets, participated in the team's first training session, after which Dragic was interviewed by New York Post reporter Brian Lewis.

"What else do the Nets need to do to win the championship?" Brian Lewis asked Dragic.

"There's no excuse, the Nets don't have any more excuses, they have to win the championship this season."

Dragic said he accepted an invitation from head coach Steve Nash to join the Nets after buying out his contract, mainly to win the championship. "After I became a free agent, 6 teams invited me to join, and if I hadn't been persuaded by Nash, I would have chosen to go to the Bucks. The nets were eventually chosen to sign because the Nets had a better chance of winning the championship. ”

After Dragic signed with the Nets, Croatian legend Dratzen Petrović, who had played for the Nets, gave him an autographed No. 3 jersey.
