    3 teams are on the clock now,

    Magic, Lakers and Rockets will be trying to be the first team ever to make the playoff since Dwight left those teams.

    Good luck.

    Who cares? Making the playoffs is meaningless If you can't dial it in when it counts most.

    I think they get a very good deal on Howard. They won't be contender, but they could have deep playoff run. I won't be surprised if they reach conference final.

    People are going to miss Howard if/when we strike out on Horford. Wish we could have gotten Howard back at that price, team took a big step back this off season by loosing him without a similar level player replacement.

    Dwight was a good guy here and did a lot for the community as well as the team. He said all the right things and his bad reputation seems to have been exaggerated.

    DD is a classless hack.

    Unfortunate to see him go, but i think this move shows dwight isn't about winning anymore. looks like he gave up on trying to get a ring. In many articles posts, and even a lot of my own personal conversations, a lot of them revolved around the fact that dwight wanted to win a ring. And what championship team would take dwight without him taking a pay cut? And the answer was none. Maybe he saw that, and just decided to settle. ATL isn't even a team you can say who will for sure make the playoffs next season, and that says a lot for being in the east.
