Are we talking about the same juwon howard? that guy is waaaaaay past his prime. I can see him helping the teams attitude but not directly on the court. I dont fear him as an oponent. he is a class act though and im glad he got a job. even if it is with the much hated mavpricks
I never liked Juwan and his shaved hairline. Screw him and screw the Mavericks. If everyone on the Mavericks team dropped dead, it would not bother me, in fact I would laugh.
They got better when he left. Now he takes the curse back to Big D. He's doing the Rockets a favor folks.
get off his back. If your current boss traded you to a lame sister company, and that lame sister company released you, and then you had a good job offer from the rival company, what would you do? You want him to not work? He played hard for us, and we traded him. What's the big deal? PS -- tinman, did he not play for Miami too? Am I crazy?
What history of the NBA do you read? He never lasted a full season with the Mavs. He was traded from Washington, and the next year they sent him packing to the Nuggets.
he never played for Miami. However, Pat Riley really wanted him. The Heat were going to pay him like $80 million. that jacked up his salary demand to Michael Jordan levels for the Wizards. The Wizards were stupid enough to pay him that much. here's the story from wizards fans: http://www.bulletsforever.com/story/2007/8/25/204018/677 After two excellent seasons with the Bullets (but with the team still struggling), Juwan became a free agent and briefly signed a $89 million deal with the Miami Heat, much to the dismay of Bullets fans. Then, the league voided the contract saying that Miami's violated tampering rules and salary cap restrictions. Given the do-over and after seeing just how furious the fan base was that our most promising player was leaving after two seasons, Washington overpaid and signed Juwan to a staggering $105 million contract.
