    If the deal goes though I wonder if we are going to keep J Howard from what I understand (I could be wrong) Howard
    and McGrady don't get along at all and his play is not much different from Mo Taylor no defense but rebounds a little better
    and he can score. So what should the Rockets do we keep or trade him?

    Good point. I'm not sure that J Howard will be useful to the Rockets either. Many coaches don't like him because he's a whiner and we already have Mo Taylor off of the bench. I say we use him as trade fodder and get a good PG (aka Brent Barry). Then the Rockets will be set. Of course, assuming this trade with Orlando goes through. Damn Weisbrod. :mad:

    I think you are thinking of Howard and Gooden - who had a hard time being on the court together (they seemed to get in each others way) - the Magic acquired and signed Howard to play with T-Mac so I believe they are fine together

    It is written that an insider shall never real their true identity or the source of their information, if they do they will be rendered impotent.
