Sources: Houston has started contacting teams about trading Dwight Howard

Agreed... Just don't see it happening for anything less...

 

Adding Dwight to any of the other top 3 teams (CLE, SA, OKC) would put them near the Warriors level, the problem is I don't know what any of those teams could/would give up (only the Love thing makes sense, but I doubt the Cavs would do it).

 

I want a deal based around Dwight Howard and Tristan Thompson.

James Harden,

with a frontline of Motiejunas, Capela and Thompson would be young and devestating.

 

I hope this happens. And mosgov isn't no scrub either.

 

Wouldn't that mess up our cap space? I'd rather go after free agents than pay TT $16M/year.

 

Just googled James harden and Kevin love and a picture came up with both of them and Scotty brooks and durant can be seen in the picture as well. It's happening lol

 

I think Howard is more or less disgruntled by what schemes the Rockets have available for attack. But he rebounds so effortlessly.. 14 or 15 a game is considered average for him or on the barely trying these last couple of games.. His standard level would be around 20 rpg. You can't find that anywhere in the basketball world. He routinely embarrasses his closest competitor DJ.

 

What is most impressive about Mosgov is that he shoots like 75% from the line. He wouldn't be a liability at the end of games.

 

Bobby Marks says that Portland has a good young Center which is wrong. They don't. He overestimates Plumlee.

But interesting he says no deal happens. I don't see why it won't. Better take one asset than Dwight leaves for nothing and signs in Dallas or BKN for the 4 year max.

 

They have Meyers Leonard, GOAT! :grin:

 

He was Dirk 2.0 the entire game. Draining jumpshots left and right with ease.

 

can someone calculate the whole amount of $ for a 4 year max by a team without bird rights including the % raises next summer?

 

You would need years in the league as well. Are you talking about Dwight?

 

yes please. I really hate math.:grin: I think the rises% is lower for a team with non bird rights.
I will rep whoever calculates it. I want to see how much per ,flat we have to pay /5 for him not to lose $.

 

I second the idea of a package centered around tristian Thompson.

 

Harden is ****ing jacked!!! No one can complain about him being out of shape any more

 

Mozgov, Thompson, verajo for dh, tj, and ariza

 

Why can't we just keep him and run pick n roll all game long? Who is the one deciding not to run pick and rolls? Harden rather ISO? Dwight only wants to play back to the basket? Coach? I know Morey knows Dwight has always been one of the the best roll men his entire career 2nd only to Tyson Chandler. I know Morey knows Harden is one of the best to run the pick n roll, because i remember him mentioning this as a big reason why he liked Lin as Lin was also good at running it. The plan was to have both Harden and Lin as an option to run it with Dwight rolling to the basket and shooters on the outside.

Can it really be Dwight that is such an idiot to think he is some superstar post player? I remember him wanting more post touches and not liking the PnR much, but he has to be mature enough to do what is best for the team right? He has to know that is his bread n butter and will help him get about 20ppg every game and a nice fat max contract. Is this Morey's way of treating his players like assets and hoping it brings his value so low that he can sign him long term for cheap and then put Dwight back in a place where he will look like a star again and then trade him when his value is sky high again or just keep him at that point? What is really going on in this situation?

 

Im i alone in hoping the rockets dont make the playoffs..so we keep the 1st that we gave to denver for lawson..also i would take the celtics deal for howard..get 2 1sts from them..have 3 1st round picks for next year to work with..gsw is obviously winning it again..great time to quickly rebuild..

 

I have an excel tool at home I built, can do it when work is done
