He may have the right but doesnt know what loyalty is unlike dirk and he wouldnt have been where he is if it wasnt for magics chosening him over okafor and he should thank orlando for making a slim pf to a dominating center he has orlando down by even thinking of a trade instead of making himself a more offense threat instead we have to deal with hack the howard

Stern wants the Howard situation resolved so he & ESPN/ABC can get to work on somehow convincing The Thunder they need to trade Durant to The Lakers.

it’s Howards right to leave, he did put his time in, but I absolutely hate how he’s handling everything….
you can’t throw your teammates under the bus like he did, it affected his team, especially Jameer who has been somewhat vocal about it and said it bothered him….
Then to complain about how your team was never good enough to win the championship, whatever Dwight, it is the teams job to get you to the Finals, and your job as the superstar is to take it from there and win it… thats what being a superstar is all about, everyone knows it except you apparently

Looks like new jersey is his landing spot, lakers Already have 2 of the top 5 centers in the league, they need to trade gasol or bynum for a legit pg… But whos available?

While I agree with you, and I hope he leaves (for my Lakers) the reality is the only thing that’s keeping the Orlando Magic relavant is Howard.

While I want to steal him from you, the Magic losing him becomes a dead end franchise for the short time. I dont mean to talk trash on the Magic or anything, but there’s too many teams with not enough major marquee talent on those teams.

To me if the Magic lose Dwight, the East is a little be less interesting.

I’m a Magic fan and I agree 100% with Stern. Orlando has had 7 years to convince Howard to be a Magic player for life and they dropped the ball. I hate to see him leave but he has put in his time and earned the right.
