    Good trade for Hornets. Miles is garbage and move up 10 spots in the draft.

    Atlanta, not a good value deal except Marco. Fans won't be happy.

    Coaches know how to use Dwight Howard. The issue has always been whether Dwight Howard knows how to use Dwight Howard.

    Also, I continue to have trouble telling the difference among the Plumlee Brothers and Zeller Brothers. I wonder if they themselves even know who is who's brother and who plays where.

    I do like how Mike is building Charlotte. Dwight and Marvin might be Rick Mahorn and Charles Oakley, nasty. Kemba and Batum are very creative players and MKG (pre-injury) was, in my opinion, the best defensive player in the league.

    They also have Frank the tank, who I like I ton.

    Wow. So the Hawks had to give up the #31 pick overall and take on the same amount of salary for 2 players that plays 15 minutes just to get rid of Dwight???

    Plumee has 3 years left that pays $13 millions a year, while Dwight contract is only 2 years. They rather take on 3 years of $13 millions a year, $37 millions annually, and give up #31 pick overall just to get rid of Dwight.

    Do you get it Dwight? No one wants you. They have to give up a draft pick and take on a horrible contract just to get rid of you!!!

    LOL DWIGHT

    "NO MATTER WHO THEY TRADED ME FOR I"M STILL A CHAMPION AND THE BEST CENTER IN THE NBA. I'm WORKING on my 4 points SHOT IN THE OFF SEASON"

    He's got tons of money and did that without improving his game. I think he's fine

    Woj should just once break a trade with

    "Adrian Wojnarowski
    Breaking: Team A trades Player X for Player Y, and a Plumlee to be named later."​

    Does this mean that the Hawks are about to let Millsap go? He's older and they just traded a still somewhat useful Dwight for two rather useless pieces.

    Wow traded for 2 bench players and the Hawks had to give up a pick to get this done. Your career is pretty much over after a deal like this.

    Hawks already put it out there that Millsap would have better offers than theirs, FWIW.

    I don't think Phoenix will be all that bad. Booker could be an all star this year.

    On paper they look pretty good. But the roster is the same of the past season when they were meh...not sure Dwight is going to make that much of a difference...if any at this point...we'll see i guess.

    I thought Bud was looking to work with Dwight and the team to figure out how to play better few weeks ago...i guess he didn't find a way lol

    They have on paper one of the best defensive teams vs. Golden State. They can employ a very effective defense that does a lot of switching.

    Also have the #11 pick, wonder if they could trade up to get Monk

    Kemba
    Batum/Monk
    MKG
    Marvin/Frank
    Howard/Zeller

    Solid

    man, if he just signed in golden state the warriors would have had a weakness and their super super team probably would not have existed with kd.

    I agree, but he knows his role as the rock one said.

    that right there is the difference
