    It's gonna hurt when he opts in for $25millon on that fourth year player option.

    Carlisle might actually use Dwight the right way.

    He'll go to the highest bidder. Good for him. I would too. Let's just hope it's not the Rockets, though I don't think we have to worry about that. :p

    they should go **** themselves instead. ruining a chunk of carlisile's last coaching years. he should be here or some other team that has a promising future.

    just go do what they always do, overpay a buncha has beens, and stay away from dwight. dwight can leave but not to dallas. hell no. rather see hi mon the spurs

    All the Rockets have to do is tell Dwight that his minutes won't be guaranteed next season. I'm pretty sure that will scare him away.

    But Carlisle is actually a coach.

    I'd be wary of Dwight going to a team that possesses a coach who turns players around.

    No that was a Mark Cuban Production all the way with Rondo. That's why he's kept his trap shut this year because he was busy wiping Rondo egg off his face.

    Not surprising.

    Cuban would sign Popeye Jone to max deal.

    Dwain price is the source lol. I remember back after the lakers season I sent him a message on Twitter and he told me his "sources" said Dwight to Dallas was done.....I think Dwight wants everyone to love him and he will try and sign with Orlando and his thinking is everyone would love him for it. If that doesn't work out I do think Howard's second choice would be Dallas as long as Parson's is there.

    Why? He doesn't have a no-trade clause.

    Teams would love him on a one-year contract.

    Howard could easily fill the role Tyson Chandler filled during their championship run... the rest of their parts aren't as good, but lets not act like Carlisle would use him just like he was used here.

    It'd be pretty cool for the Mavs to have a big chunk of their cap space tied to players who can't even get on the court (Parsons, Howard, Matthews)

    Dumbest thing in the world is to not get easy buckets for Howard. Oh wait that was our dumb ass. A real coach and a real system that capitalizes on Howard's ability still to play above everyone else? Well damn that's value added. Howard I really hope you go to the East. Don't go to Carlisle or any Western contender (which we havent been for 20 years.)
