It would be absolutely Hilarious if this happened. Because how much talent does Lebron James need to win a Championship. However: If the magic are looking for the best deal possible, why wouldn't they entertain a Chris Bosh + multiple number 1 picks for Howard. It would suck for Bosh, but at least the Magic would have a star type player in Bosh locked up for multiple years.
Dwight Howard, unlike Bosh, won't be very content to be relegated to 3rd fiddle. Not happening, but I really wouldn't be surprised if Pat Riley somehow pulled it off. Seriously.
How much talent did Magic need, with Worthy & Kareem (not to mention Scott, Green, Cooper, etc)? How about Bird with Parish and McHale (not to mention DJ, Ainge, Walton, etc)? How about MJ with Pippen & Grant (Rodman)? Do you see a pattern? Championship teams need great players. Howard can't come to Miami anyway since they can't afford him, unless you are talking about for Bosh etc, in which case we're back to two all-stars. Steve Nash, though, would be a great fit if they could use him as a shooter.
Two all-star teammates, just like Magic, Bird, MJ, Pierce, and all sorts of people in NBA history have. Reading is fundamental.

Why stop at Dwight? Perhaps, we should have Deron Williams join the heat at the PG when both of their contracts are up! Then they can have 5 all-stars at each starting position! And why stop there? I mean, they should go ahead and try to trade for CP3, Kobe, Durant, Griffin and Amare while at it! I mean, it would be soooooo much fun to have all 10 stars, Imagine the rings! 8 'ships? Pleeeeeeeeease, why stop there? Let's make it 12! Imagine the preseason parades! Now, why be competitive at all, right? Who wants to compete for a ring, to beat the best and not just join the best? Too much work, let's just all team together and roll through the NBA together. Let's all be friends, let's all have tea parties together and win. Who needs self-respect right? Dwight, trying to win like a man is way overated, join the heat baby, every other super star is doing it! Sincerely, Men with cheap manhoods and no sense of pride or competitive spirit.
I KNOW!! What were KG and Allen thinking, coming to join Pierce in Boston so they could try to win a title? You guys act like LeBron joined a championship team. It's not like he was Malone & Payton in '03, coming to the dynasty Lakers in a feeble attempt to bandwagon onto a title. Players can do whatever they want. Usually they put money first, and, due to the CBA, that prevents all-star teams from forming. If that weren't the case, then they would have no problem teaming up to win every year. Winning = fame and bigger contracts.
You seriously going to tell me if Riley gets offered Howard for Bosh and two future 1st round picks, that he would turn that down. Especially if the heat don't win the championship this year. The reason the deal can be made is salaries and type of player. The heat, if that trade Bosh for Howard aren't like they are adding salary. It would be a 1 for 1 deal. The magic like the deal because bosh is locked up for another 5 years, so they get a high level player that they don't have to worry about contract wise.
