shoulder

it was a torn pectoral muscle

It's not his chest though... probably where his shoulder is connected http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/74558 ... der-injury

Next up for Atlanta? Trading Josh Smith. He felt the team wasn't committed BEFORE the Joe Johnson trade. Now, there's no doubt he wants out.

Would you guys forgive Howard if he apologized and we traded for josh smith?


I would, I can accept the fact that he's a complete idiot as long as he is still the 3 time dpoy, which last time I checked he is

He's not my friend or anything, so I think I'd be fine with it as long as he admitted his mistakes and stopped acting like a jacka$$. By now it's quite obvious he's an idiot.

I never took issue with Dwight. He was given an ultimatum to stay in ORL and play with Hedo or get traded to BRK and play with D-Will and he gave an honest answer.

I'd gladly welcome Dwight on this team.

I don't want Dwight anymore. I don't care if he comes crawling back. I want a new roster and new direction.

If Dwight stays, the Nelson era is certainly over.

I wonder what Dwight does now...

This was great trade for both teams imo. Nets have a very good team, especially if they sign a good 4.

DWill
Joe
Crash
Ilyasova
Lopez

The East next season is Miami and then bump. BRK has a chance to do some damage in the East, even more so if Dwight leaves the conference.

Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA
The Atlanta Hawks will have a lot of money to spend next summer. This deal allows them to pursue Dwight Howard and Chris Paul.

In Before "Sources say Dwight Howard wants one last championship run in Orlando & explore options in 2013" :lol:

:rofl:

Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if this came about.

Rob Hennigan said Dwight's "preference" was to be traded to BRK. I wonder what his alternative option is...
