With the exception of joining the Bulls, I don't think Howard will help any team to the promised land.
And even if he did join the Bulls, not sure if what Chicago gives up will make them contender-worthy. Because, if there is one team in the NBA that plays as a unit from top to bottom, it is the Bulls.

Seems that Monta Ellis is heading to Milwaukee along with Kwame Brown and Udoh for Andrew Bogut and Stephen Jackson

LeHoward has a better ring than LeBosh.

i thought Ellis was more injure prone than steph(well Monta has been in the league longer). I think they choose curry over ellis because of his youth. Ellis has been there for awhile now.

So Dallas finally pulled out another win. Unfortunately, so did Houston against Oklahoma, speaking of which, the coaching staff is catching some hell for letting Durant play those final 2 minutes after coming down & hitting his head on the court; might be a possible concussion tomorrow.
And how about the Lakers? That was a good game. Good comeback there to take it.

Wow, Howard is an @$$. While I've maintained for years that he was the ONE player I would build a team around, the way he's handling his future is awful.
He's now asking the Magic to keep him for the season and then roll the dice in free agency.
If his ultimate goal is to go to NJ (gotta ask again: WHY?!??) with that team losing NOTHING because well, he'll be a free agent, then this is a selfish request for a team that's given him everything to make him happy.
Um, I hope Orlando for their sake are not that retarded and honor his request.

If the Magic do not trade Howard after his latest request, then NJ won't have to give up ANY assets (i.e. gut their team) to get him because Howard will join as a free agent.
Keep in mind that any trade with Orlando will have included the poison-pill deal of Turkoglu's. And NJ, if indeed they are in play, will have to dump a number of first round picks, Lopez, and likely Brooks to get Dwight (and Turkoglu).

I hope the Magic do it too. Otherwise, its Shaq 2.0. At least the Lakers got Lamar and Caron Butler for Shaq. Caron turned into Pau Gasol (eventually) and Lamar got 6th man of the year and took one of the ugly Kardashians off our hands.

Dwight wants to play with his fwend, Dwill. He's not really in it to win it all, IMO. Friendship is more important.

While I can continue to mock LeBron for doing what he did, at least he did it in the name of winning by joining the best possible combination (well, arguable IMO as Rose would've been just as good with him) to win the Title in Miami. Howard? Motive seems completely different.

You would think they would've learn from what Shaq did years ago to them. I think they should trade him
Am i agreeing with Yummy? must not.
Yummy you idiot, this idea is brilliant!

Yum just paid Lebron a compliment, A-spec just agreed with Yum.

Just in: Mike 'Antoni just resigned as the Knicks head coach. I guess Lin wasn't good enough to save his job...

The Knicks record with Caramel back in the line-up says it all. And look at the Nuggets now.

I was joking, but he has had worse head cases or locker room cancers than carmelo. Getting him and LeSTAT to play defense, 'tis another story...

Maybe...I can see the triangle. Mike and Kobe made a living off of weakside triangle isolations. But those guys had plenty of skill and determination, not so sure about Melo....
However, I can't see him working for the Knicks owner though. Who knows, I think he's pretty happy fishing and boinking Jeannie Buss...but I do think this is a rumor that'll come up from time to time.
I also read Jerry Sloan...
