"Nothing Has Changed" With Howard

Photo

In a tweet from the Magic locker room in Sacramento, Sam Amick reports Dwight Howard "said nothing has changed about his situation," and in an interview with Josh Robbins, Otis Smith says the same thing.

"Has anything changed with Dwight's situation?" Robbins asked. "No," Smith responded.

"Has he pulled back the trade request?" Robbins asked. "No," Smith responded.

"Has he expanded his list of preferred destinations?" Robbins finally asked. "Not to my knowledge," Smith responded.

“I think his leaving or going has nothing to do with Orlando,” Smith said of Howard. “I think he wants a bigger market. I can’t do anything about that.” Smith also said he and his family have received threats. As for Howard, he doesn't think he will be moved until the trade deadline, if at all, because the Magic are winning. And add Sam Amick to those who think the Nets have little chance of acquiring him in a trade.

Dwight still wants the trade OR Smith is getting death threats? lol

I feel so bad for that man hahaha He is in the worst situation.

by avilanets85 on Jan 8, 2012 7:01 PM EST reply actions  

nothing has changed

meaning we are still option #1 for him.

But the Mavs & Lakers are still in the hunt.

Howard does not want to stay in Orlando.

How are the Mavs in the hunt?

they have nothing to trade, and cannot afford 2 max FAs no matter what they do. I think Dwight only said Mavs and Lakers to help Orlando with trade leverage, as evidenced by agreeing to re-sign with a team (mavs) that have NOTHING to trade. Why even bother listing them?

So if Dwight makes it to FA

he can choose the Mavs that have Dirk and Marion
or he can choose the Nets that have Deron, Brooks, Lopez, a high pick

not possible

unless Dwight and Deron take a major pay cut. Even if the Mavs somehow dump both Haywood AND Marion, then they’ll still be short 7-10mil, and that’s a REALLY big if. No one wants Haywood’s or Marion’s contract, and you can only Amnesty one or the other

by Murse Mike on Jan 8, 2012 11:43 PM EST up reply actions  

Really?

But everyone here thinks Dwight will be willing to give up $30M guaranteed. So why wouldn’t they both give up money to play for the Mavs?

Dwight and Deron would have to give up the same $30mil

that he’d have to give up to play for the Nets, AND an addition 4-5mil per year.

All the speculation about the Mavs is based on the idea that Deron and Dwight are willing to leave $50+ million on the table to play with Dirk, AND that somehow the Mavs can clear their ENTIRE roster.

I’m willing to concede that Carter, Odom, Boubois, Jones and any picks are all moveable, but I cannot see any team taking Marion or Haywood’s contracts. Haywood can be Amnestied, but Marion is owed 2 year @9mil per. And is any team with cap room willing to pay 9mil for his 8ppg 40 FG% 15 3pt%?

Then compare that unlikely scenario to any in which Dwight is moved before the deadline. And also to what the Nets can offer in Lopez, Brooks, Ammo, a high pick, AND ability to sign Dwight and Deron. Mark Cuban will end up looking really stupid for letting the chance to repeat slip with nothing to show for it.

Eventually, ownership will see the light and deal Dwight here. They moiso’d this up once. They’re not gonna moiso it up again.

This will come down to the Nets organization and Deron/Dwight's families

If the Nets do a good job keeping Deron involved and happy, which it seems like they’re doing, and his family is happy in the tri-state area (a great area for schools), I see the Nets being a perfect fit. Let’s just hope it plays out.

A la the 2010 LeBron/Wade/Bosh union, the summer of 2012 could be insane.

you know he does, a guy as likeable as him isnt some loner villian with an ice cold heart

him and lebron love the fan support, they embrace being able to goof off for the fans. like tonight as this Kings game Dwight was signing autographs on the bench after he picked up his 3rd foul.

difference though is that Dwight will never try to embrace the villian role like Lebron has and does during various road games when fans call him out(like Chris Bosh girlfriend)

the difference is this

you can be a nice fan friendly guy, and be down to earth, but dont let the fans get to you, dont feed the fires by responding to all the negativity, it breeds more negative attention and gives people power where they know you are mentally weak and are bothered by it.

you can respond without sounding like a tool or like you're in high school

its nice he does respond to at least let the fans know he does care somewhat about them wondering about him.

every man should be able to defend himself. athletes have to let a lot slide though but i think he has shown great restraint. we have seen other athletes just come off as blatantly ignorant when responding to disparaging remarks. even Ammo who someone here said got blocked by him because he said Ammo was playing like trash early in the season

No doubt L.A would trade Bynum for Howard

What is the incentive for the magic to trade Howard by the deadline and not a sign and trade in the offseason?

Similar to how the cabs were not left high and dry when Lebron left, why wouldn’t Orlando do that with Dwight? They have the upper hand to pay him the most money and if he wants to leave at least they get something in a sign and trade similar to cabs w Lebron or raptors with bosh.

That's soooooo untrue

Dwight is the best in the league, if not the best for many years, at protecting the rim without racking up fowls. Today is an exception.

If it was so easy to get him out of the game, then how come he’s averaging almost 40min per game and only 3.25PF per game?

You’re just being negative just to be negative, this is def a case in which you have no grounds to say what you said

Averages can also be based on High foul counts plus low fouls counts each game

I’m sure he’s had many games where he has gotten into foul trouble, many many games. You could have just continue reading, yet decided to comment on mines.

much like William Lane Craig, that logic is highly flawed

You’re the one that said it’s easy to put Dwight in fowl trouble, yet it hardly ever happens, as evidenced by a 40mpg average out of a possible 48min.
Players that don’t have ANY foul trouble don’t average 40mpg. If it was so easy, then he’d have to sit very often and thus spend a lot of time on the bench. A 40mpg average easily shows that he’s pretty much never in foul trouble, b.c most starters average less than 40mpg

I think Dwight is hell bent on coming to the Nets

and only said the Lakers and Mavs to help Orlando with leverage. And I don’t think the fact that the Nets are awful so far is important b/c it’s not so much about the past but more about the future.

If Dwight is traded elsewhere, Nets have D-Will (re-signs), Lopez, Brooks, high pick, AND cap room to sign Dwight or a RFA with a front loaded max offer.

And let’s not forget, no matter where Dwight is traded, he will opt out and become an UFA.

A Brooklyn man claims increased security at Lenox Hill hospital because the presence of Beyonce and Jay-Z kept him from seeing his prematurely born twins … this according to a report.

Neil Coulon tells the NY Daily News he has been repeatedly kept out of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) by the couple’s security. He also claims his relatives were booted out of the waiting room by bodyguards wearing headsets.

He tells the paper, “Three times they stopped me from entering or exiting the NICU and it happened once on Friday — just because they wanted to use the hallway.”

A rep for the hospital told the NYDN she hadn’t personally heard of any complaints. We reached out for comment as well … haven’t heard back.

Thanks for this

If i take these points at face value, i take Davis with Barnes 2d. Bulk is easy to add and not that essential (look at Bosh). But you can’t add a motor. People have it or they don’t. So since Davis has one, and Jones doesn’t, Ford says , Davis is the guy.

I think the only reason why Dallas is on the same tier as NY, LA is only because New York and LA have two teams to fight for media’s attention versus one. Imagine if the New York area only had one team- its stature would essentially be doubled by the media. In general though- no city. Not Chicago not LA and certainly not Dallas can compete with New York. It is in a class entirely in its own not just in this country but perhaps the world.

Knicks fan here

I think that the Magic will definitely trade Howard. Getting him in free agency isn’t realistic, because no team is going to risk losing their super star for nothing after watching what happened with LeBron and Cleveland. That said, I think the Nets are probably in the best position to get Howard. If the Lakers offer Bynum though, it might take Marshon Brooks to get a deal done.

by Dylan87 on Jan 8, 2012 11:12 PM EST reply actions  

yeah, he has made some odd moves to put it nicely

But I think that even he knows that he can’t afford to lose Dwight for nothing. His comments about how Dwight wants to play in a bigger city makes it seem like he is trying to avoid the backlash from what is inevitably going to happen. He wants Magic fans to know that keeping him was never an option. Bottom line though, if Howard wants to a Net its only a matter of time. Its pretty much the exact same situation as Melo and the Knicks last year.

You can say what you want about his off court issues

but the man was a star there and gave it his all. Mistake the Wizards and Nets did was to put some young guy as option #1 and captain that weren’t leaders. When Carter and Arena’s got traded from the Nets and Wizards, its been down hill from there on. There’s alot of blame to be passed, but IMO, leadership is missing on that team, all the young players want to play there way and have there own ego’s.

Yet another great game from Andew Bynum and another Laker win.

With every Laker win and every Bynum good game, Nets’ chance of getting Dwight increase, in my opinion.

As long as Lakers are contending, the chances of trading Bynum + Gasol decrease.

I still expect Bynum to wear down by March, and if he suffers more knee ailments, that too would increase chances of ORL not wanting to deal for Bynum.

What Laker fans want though is to trade Bynum for Howard straight up. ORL would be foolish to consider that option until seeing how Andrew holds up to a long season.

Bynum playing awful, Lakers losing = Nets getting Dwight, why would they want Bynum?

Bynum dominating the C position in the NBA, Lakers winning = Nets getting Dwight, why would the Lakers trade this guy?

I bet Hump has been holding back his desire to get that off his chest.

The lawyers were probably telling him not to comment.

However, Kim’s people have been selectively leaking to the tabloids since the beginning.

You can see Kris is happy these days, now that he is “banging” on the basketball court.

I'm sure that is on his Attorney's list. One of many.

I couldn’t believe the reasoning when I heard that charge, and couldn’t believe the tabloids didn’t challenge the claim.

All the leaks by friends of Kim, since the beginning, support the notion that he was being set up. It’s all too obvious if you go back in history.

Surprised some people haven’t figured that out, and still think that Hump was part of the scam.

by jerry25 on Jan 9, 2012 12:07 AM EST up reply actions  

The word was that Kim's stipulation is that everything be done in privacy with the attorneys ....

and she doesn’t want any $ amounts to leak.

She also fears for her “brand” being damaged. Maybe that is the real reason she has been crying a lot lately.

yes they would

The Nets would still need some talent in order to make any schemes work. D’Antoni’s 1st few years with the Knicks were bad too, b/c he had no talent to work with.

People complain so much about AJ, but completely disregard the fact that his Nets teams were lacking in big areas. Pat Riley coached his team to 15 wins in his final season, and that’s a Heat team with Wade

All this losing.....and THE HUMPH!

Before the season began, I had hoped that we would be 4-6 through the first ten games.
So far, I have been disappointed, and the way we have played does not motivate me to watch the games on League Pass. Deron is forcing and shooting horribly. But I must say, the most disturbed I have been, was after the last game versus Miami. I was reminded about why THE HUMPH is not a player worth the kind of money we are paying him this year, on a long term deal. The Humph is just inept at finishing. He must have missed a half dozen easy, close in shots. Layups and very short jump shots. I know he scored well, and rebounded well, but if he had finished those 6 or more plays, we would have been in the game versus the Heat. I love his effort, but he is just not that good. AND at this point in his career, he doesn’t project to get much better. He is not worth a long term deal at more than 5 or 6 million a year.

DEAD WRONG

The numbers don’t tell the whole story.

In several of those cases, he was given the ball as the shot clock was winding down and had to take the shot.

In several of those cases, he was fouled hard and didn’t get the call. Ends up counting as an FGA. There was one dunk he was going for where Anthony smacked his hand and didn’t even get any ball and the refs called it a block.

Hump played within the game and if you watched the game, it didn’t seem like he had that many shots at all.

Even if Dwight does opt in

It would be a bit better than this season and last… Healthy Lopez, more developed Marshon, and a Top 10 pick. Training camp would help too but that would help all teams as well…

He might

But I think his trade demand would remain. If he does this, it’s clear the 5th year is very important to him.

by eLonepb on Jan 9, 2012 9:10 AM EST up reply actions  

Why might he?

I don’t understand how he might opt in,

This off-season, there will be half the league with cap room for a max salary, so if you wish to choose your team, this is the season to do it. And also, why wouldn’t he look to secure his next 5 seasons by signing a contract that guarantees him $100mil?

And what exactly will change about the Magic between this season and next? Is Big Baby going to increase his scoring from 8ppg to a whopping 12ppg, or rebounds from 5 to 7? And somehow J-Rich will magically go back in time and regain his 2005 form. J-Rich, Big Baby, and Hedo are fixtures in Orlando’s starting 5 for the foreseeable future b/c of their contracts. If Dwight is asking to be traded today, then would wouldn’t he opt out.

by Murse Mike on Jan 9, 2012 9:26 AM EST up reply actions  

Because he can only sign a 4 year/76 million deal if he opts out

by mytoemytoe on Jan 9, 2012 10:03 AM EST up reply actions  

Exactly

If he declines the early termination option, he will have another year to try and get traded to a team that will then be able to offer him the full 5 years.

if he does then the nets have to sign someone this offseason

they cant blow another season waiting around. also the team will have more deals expiring in two years than this year so they should be able to sign him outright even if they sign some free agents
