MIAMI – Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic spoke Saturday about the team being forced to move forward, for the time being, without Chris Bosh who failed his team physical this week following bouts of blood clots over the last two seasons.
Dragic reacted to Friday's news of the failed physical by saying, "it's tough, but this is basketball, this is sports (and) you never know what the future holds.

We're gonna be a young team and we need to work hard and compete with other teams and hopefully we can do that.
I feel for Chris.
We are playing basketball and unfortunately he can't do that right now.
I wish him all the best, but we already survived last year without a lot of key players so hopefully we can do the same."
Dragic spoke to the media on Saturday at The Miami Heat Store at Dolphin Mall where he was on hand to meet fans and sign autographs.
He was also asked about Dwyane Wade leaving the Heat via free agency and Dragic said, "I was surprised, but I wish him all the best in Chicago."
