    So the mods aren't going to close any threads any more. I see.

    LOL.
    This is basically like our mediocre lineups that we used to get the 14th pick every season.

    your crusade is getting tiresome. Ironically, you're one of the worst there is. In summary, nobody cares about how much you like to b**** at our fans in every thread. As a matter of fact, since it bothers you so much you can make it easier on yourself by leaving.

    That'll never happen, regardless of anything else.

    Death, taxes, and bad posters on ClutchFans.

    Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb, Steven Adams for Harden...

    Aaron Afflalo & picks for Howard...

    Then we'll have the pieces to trade for two superstars like Harden & Howard...Oh wait...

    Well, if we are so quick to shop the cornerstones of our team I would think that other teams would see that as a red flag (or a white one depending on how you look at it).

    This is all hypothetical speaking

    People need to stop being so sensitive about each and every thread and thread title.

    There is a good possibility that we won't win a ship when Dwight's contract ends.
    So we gotta think ahead

    If we continue to lose, they won't be worth much.

    Flawed superstars who can be gameplanned against. They need to go a team which is better-coached.

    DAL likes Dwight though.

    How about a straight-up Tyson Chandler (plus picks) for Dwight Howard trade? Tyson can defend the rim and have his garbage points without demanding the ball for iffy post-ups.

    Howard earned his superstar title when he took the Magic to the finals and was at one point considered the 2nd best player in the NBA only to Lebron. Those days seem to have passed him by, though. He lost his mojo somewhere along the way and I'm not sure if its entirely physical or mental at this point, perhaps a combination plate.

    Harden was anointed a superstar too quickly by our fans and Bill Worrell, when in reality he is perhaps the worst volume chucker the game has seen since Allen Iverson. In Iverson's defense, at least he could defend.

    The problem is it is hypothetical. Most teams are willing to unload all of their assets for superstar players. I would imagine if this were to happen, we would trade them for Kevin Love and Kyrie plus fillers since this is the closest thing to making sense. But it will never happen and would be a horrible trade.
