2011-2012 NBA Thread: The Chris Paul and Dwight Howard sweepstakes

[Man0warr]

That article is only based off 10 teams because those are the only ones paying for the technology to track it.

Parker's French national team backup would give him a run for his money.

[Dimmauk]

Parker's time from opposite free throw line to layup is still unbroken. 11 years in the league and he is still super fast, and that includes playoffs!

Fuck roddy b.

[kisada]

yeah i'm actually kinda surprised that he's maintained a lot of speed so late in his career. most players get hit pretty hard on speed.

[Rhinox]

Lolololol no

[Andalusian girls]

My source still tells me that Orlando is keeping Dwight unless someone offers up equal talent level.

Not getting an all star for role players and back ups.

letting the best center in the league walk for nothing again is prolly better anyways

[Dimmauk]

I hear that Jsmoove and pau will get traded. Maybe they switching teams.

[Rhinox]

If I'm Orlando I'd take the gamble. They'll have the last laugh when Howard misses out on 30+ mil.

[Rhinox]

Besides if you're Orlando why would you want to be in nba hell? If you're not gonna be a top 3 seed then it's best to be bobcats bad.

[Cail]

plus orlando has what? 4th seed atm? (dont feel like looking) if they can get another player in a trade or soemthing, theyd be pretty good

in an open sprint i gotta think its wall vs rose for FASTEST MAN ALIVE

[Cleverness]

The Magic don't really have alot of assets though to get a key player unless they try to trade picks. Apparently Howard wants Nash to come over but who would the Suns even want that it'd be a fair trade? The Magic are a high seed because of Howard, but any team with a good big guy capable of holding him back some always screws them over when they play well. And they are weighed down by Turk's terrible contract. I can't really imagine how the Magic can be this stupid with Dwight, you literally went through this exact same shit at the exact same position before. They don't have any other likeable assets to trade to put effective pieces around him, cause trying to put average/subpar people like Gilbert Arenas obviously didn't work. Get whatever the fuck you can at this point.

Better than taking on some shitty contracts. If I'm Orlando I either want a deal like Denver got for Melo (bunch of young guys + picks) or just let Howard walk, save the cap space, and burn it to the ground and start over. Including the GM.

Not being able to put enough talent around Dwight and screwing up on failed trades again and again should get him fired.

[Moss]

I would keep Dwight and make him turn down a max contract rather than getting much less than he is worth in a trade. In the first scenario you at least have a chance of keeping him. They need to make a sneaky good move for a decent player that can make a difference.

[kisada]

if they're gonna let him walk they're WAY better off trading him, even for a pure TPE. this year's draft is ridiculously stacked and not getting into the lottery would be complete fail.

Ever wonder who the fastest PG in the NBA is?
