    I don't but the way i see our rosters grows and mold in together, there is only one player in our team that i would trade for someone that will benefit this team or maybe a draft pick for next year and that will be JHo. Juwan seems the odd player when he is on the floor. I know the guy is old and has a fat contract this year but whatever it takes as long as we can unload Juwan, it will be great for the best interest of the fans and the franchise.

    Duh, what a brilliant and original idea. Why didn't anyone else think of this?

    The Rockets will not win a championship until they get rid of Juwan and replace him with ANYONE else.

    Juwan sucks, don't get me wrong, but your statement is not only inaccurate -- it's completely shortsighted. I could see Juwan making some big shots in the playoffs with his 10-15ft jumper. You have no clue what you're talking about, sorry.

    And Cham sounds nothing like Tracy.

    Youre not considering matchups. For example, jvg could possibly use him at C if they wanted to go really small with a lineup of scorers. That would be ideal against Phx when yao/deke cant run up and down the floor 200 times a game. Lets tinker with lineups before we decide Jho is complete garbage for this team. Although if I could get a quality player in a package for Rybo/Jho I would seriously consider it.

    I can tell you this...Novak is easily the better option at PF. Hell I even think Novak will play better defense and grab more rebounds besides shoot lights out over JHo. JHo should be nothing more than 12th man on the bench used sparingly and for playoff purposes if he lasts the rest of the year. But with Battier and Novak, I just don't see why he needs to take up minutes that could be better served by Novak, Bonzi or Snyder, VSpan, and others coming off the bench.

    For the money that we're paying him, Juwan is a complete waste. Trade him and Bowen for Mihm and McKie. Bowen and Juwan are unnecessary parts of this team now.

    Juwan Howard doesn't need to become spendable if he can get the five finger discount!

    JH is the only player on our team with nothing to prove. Stop with the hate please. He can contribute. Let's support our players.

    Go Rockets!

    What a great idea! Let's trade Juwan Howard for an inknown commodity! Not smart.

    The real question are:

    Who the hell can you realistically trade him for?

    Is what you can trade him for any more useful to this team?

    Few bags of peanuts, maybe some cotton candy or a case of beer???

    If they trade him it will be like the Derek Anderson deal last yr, just trade him just to be rid of him, or like the Mo Taylor deal
