Goran Dragic could make the triangle offense run to a tee all by himself. The Knicks are hoping the lure of the Big Apple will be enough to get Dragic to consider joining Carmelo Anthony this summer.
According to Mitch Abramson of the New York Daily News, Dragic will “definitely” consider the Knicks this summer.
“Oh yeah, definitely,” said Dragic, who earned All-NBA third-team honors last season. “You know Phil, he was a great coach. He won so many titles and he was coaching so many great players that of course it’s interesting and I would love working with him. Because probably he’s making all the moves — I’m not sure — but he knows what the team needs and what direction the team needs to go. In the past probably, he makes some decisions, who the Lakers bring in and the Chicago Bulls and (he) did an amazing job.”
Dragic said he intends to keep his options open for free agency.
“I think so it’s a possibility, but not just New York,” Dragic said. “I’m a free agent. I want to explore my options but so far I’m really happy in Phoenix. They give me a lot. I like the city. I like the fans and I like the organization, so it’s going to be a tough decision to make, but I’m going to start thinking of that at the end of the season.”
