Seems like a nice fella to me. Kinda reminds me of a certain old-timer by the name o’ Skibby MaRue.

Howard should tell his agent to find out through shady investigating tactics whether Chris paul will sign long term with the Clippers.

If I’m Howard, I want to lead the transformation of a historically disgraceful franchise, in a dream city, into a dynasty.

Howard, Paul, Griffin, long term would be a young trio of outrageously complimentary players. Pick up a few shooting specialists and mix them into the drink, you’ve got yourself a deadly cocktail.

L.A. Would eat this up. Legacy, cash, and lebron, wade, and bosh…boom, roasted.

But that’s just me.

I don’t know why adidas is so opposed to Dwight and D-Rose playing together in Chicago. Chicago is by far the best option for the Magic, and a shoe deal should not influence where you play. People say “but Wade and LeBron both endorse Nike and play together in Miami”. Well, seems like 80% of NBA players wear Nike, and besides LeBron is Nike central and Dwyane Wade is part of the Air Jordan brand. If Howard wants to win, he should strongly consider Chicago. And even though it’s just one city, imagine the irony of the two biggest adidas stars playing in the city that Jordan created his legacy with Nike.

i hate the Orlando gets no respect even though they are winning games, and good wins at that. 4-0 on the current road trip beating a Portland team who was previously unbeaten at home and a Knicks team that people predicted to win it all. Orlando has been, and still is, a title contender. Nobody wants to realize this because the media just wants Howard to go somewhere else.

“… but this roster is not going to win a title come the playoffs and everyone knows it.”

Yeah, they should just close it up and quit trying. Sports are predictable.

Face it. Orlando is just a company town owned by Disney. There’s not much else there in such a small market, to keep any stars wanting to be there. Maybe they could give them life-time passes on all the rides – yeah that’ll attract’em.

There are only five players i wouldn’t trade to get Howard right now given the current structure of teams in the league: Kobe, Durant, CP3, Wade, and Rose.

I would cringe in trading LeBron or Blake for Howard, but ultimately I think the chance to pair Paul with Howard or Bosh and Wade with Howard is just too good to pass up.

Why all the hate for Orlando? None of the teams he wants to go to have any better chance at winning than Orlando. Cry all you want they are a top five team

I won’t dislike D-12 no matter where he ends up even if its LA I think this guy is a class act he’s always smiling and joking when he’s off the court and then the second a game starts he’s all business. I want him to win too.

The clippers dont have any one to trade to the magic besides griffin and cp3 to get howard and if it came to it i would package griffin in a deal to get howard and cp3 togather.
