Sources: Houston has started contacting teams about trading Dwight Howard

Slowly put down the keyboard and step away from the trade machine...because you must be high if you think hinkie would do this trade.

 

Read it too... i am not surprised by this article at all. I actually believe it to be true. I wonder what Clips would say if we offered Harden for Chris Paul.

 

Morey would make rash decisions before hours of trade deadline.

 

Ya lets try and trade for Chris Paul because dammit he's a good guy and a real leader.

I mean he's only 30 years old never been on the 2nd round plays on a stacked team with two other Max guys but did I mention he never been out the 2nd round?

The grass is not greener on the other side. Chris Paul? Really?

He's a great player but he can't get it done with dwight howards clone and black Griffin why would he do better here?

Cmon now get off the Espn hype train.

The sooner you realize every team is screwed but the Warriors the easier it will be for you. KD is awesome so is lebron. Guess what they will be were harden and the rockets will be come June? Without a championship, I guess their failures too maybe they should blow it up.

 

We should never get any former Orlando Magic players again

 

lol if philly does this

 

According to a website on hoops hype, apparently colangelo is making the decisions and is overseeing Hinkie, so don't expect a gimme from the 76ers

 

Lol what?! Harden has achieved more than CP3 has in less years. scorers like Harden don't come around that often! I'm shocked that people really think that maybe trading the guy is the right thing to do because his team is having a down year.

In 89 Jordan led his team to the 6th seed after having been a 3 seed the year before... I wonder if the Bulls ever considered trading Jordan then?

After 89 he led the back to the 3 seed and then after that led them to 3 straight rings! Not saying this will happen with Harden at all but it's WAY too soon to want to ship the guy out for having a down season. I mean it's not like he's getting much help from anywhere either.

 

The ball is ultimately in Dwight's court on whether he stays as a Rocket or gets traded. All he has to do is let Morey know that he is willing to take a paycut and accept that he's not what he used to be. Unless he does that, there will be at least 1 move for sure.

 

You are full of it, Juwon Howard was awesome.

 

You are full of it, the fans seemed to like Steve Francis.

Ok not buying that dwight is going to be traded or as stien put it "top priority"

I just don't get the sense that this is were it's heading.

I know I'm the minority but I think Howard will be playing Friday in a rockets jersey and I also think he will be in a rockets Jersey next season also.

 

I'm sad

 

agree. Stein is as bad as Alex Kennedy. pretty bad.

 

Just becasue it may not happen doesn't mean that Stein is lying. He's no.2 in credibillity.
But I respect your opinion.
My theory is that Dwight is traded to Orlando. :grin:

Vucevic + Fournier+ Ilyasova + Jennings for Howard + Brewer + Terry + Jones.

 

Can players you just traded for be included in other deals?

 

Exactly why this is my crazy theory.
The Magic just before trading for Ily and Jennings renounced rights to be under the cap and so they now can repackage them. They also renounced their TPE.

 

Just put it this way, if Morey doesn't trade DH, it means DH will need to perform better the rest of the season with given teammates. Otherwise, his value will not be getting any higher. If it somehow Rockets perform better, DH may stay. If not, well..its for him to lose his value.
