    Howard's camp doesn't give a damn how he gets to la, whether its Houston or Cleveland. Its just the ending they like

    lol.. ok, man. I give up.

    I said you're right - he DOES NOT want to play here - now. His heart is set on Brooklyn.

    Read my other two responses.... not gonna' re-type 'em.

    Having an OPINION is one thing. Forming an opinion based on MEDIA REPORTS that have been proven over and over again to be inaccurate isn't smart.

    To state it is YOUR OPINION that he will walk is fine. To state "he is going to walk - haven't you listened to ESPN and all the sources... he won't stay - he is guaranteed to walk 100%" is not an opinion.

    It's like saying after Obama was elected "I guarantee you Obama will bring the troops home inside of a year". Well, he said it... so it must have been true, right?

    Did it happen?

    Come on, man.

    We're not arguing the fact that he does NOT WANT TO BE TRADED TO HOUSTON.

    That is likely a fact. The difference of opinion is what he will do when he has to make the decision to walk away from the extra year and thirty mil... IF he STILL wants to do that in a year.

    Obviously, Morey is pretty confident he won't - and/or he can change his mind in a year, based on his ability to build around him and the history of players LIKING the city after coming here.

    Why in the world would you hate Adrian? He's the only legit reporter out there.

    Howard's camp knows Cleveland doesn't have the assets to get a deal done. Houston does. That's the difference.

    Dwight Howard met with Magic officials and is still demanding a trade and will not sign an extension to stay with the Magic.

    "Dwight remained unchanged in his desire to be traded and has no intention of signing another contract or extension in Orlando," an unnamed source said of Howard's mindset. Expect talks with the Lakers to resume in the near future, while other teams may get back in the hunt for Howard. It's also possible the Magic wait until the trade deadline in February to move the big man, but it's clear that he has no intention or desire to stay with the Magic. And if Howard does make it to free agency in 2013, Dallas is the clear favorite to sign him due to their cap space.

    If Hennigan thinks holding out longer will get him more, he's DEAD WRONG. The closer the trade deadline gets and teams know Dwight will walk for NOTHING, his price will go down as Orlando will become increasingly desperate to unload him.

    even doing a Bynum trade they get to dump 1 contract, in this new cba just dumping a contract is better than allowing emotion into the negotiations and saying ok we are gonna keep you out of spite!

    Howard's camp has consistently warned Houston not to trade for him, that he'd march right into Dallas' cap space next summer.

    And the offers won't get any better. At some point Hennigan has to accept the fact that he won't be getting anything close to equal value in return for Howard. With these latest comments, Dwight has ****ed him over, and taken away any type of leverage Orlando had.

    I for one hope we don't trade for this prick. He's just going to be pulling the same **** with us if we do. Rather stay with what we have and move on.
