Thats the only way to explain how he is playing!

So he's been high all series?

I hope Steakhouse and Josh leave after this season.

This season was painful to watch Josh play in. I hope something changes one way or another before next.

We can't trade Josh this off-season. His value is too low. We should have traded him at the trade deadline for player that would work with Kidd or not trade for Kidd at all.

There's no reason, none at all, why Josh is playing so poorly beside Jason Kidd. I don't know what his problem is, but he's absolutely killing this team right now...26% shooting for the series now. Unbelievable.

Why is it a surprise?

JHo doesn't give a s h i t, his body language and play should tell it all.

And Kidd hasn't done much this series either, in fact, if anything EVEN MORE load has been put on Dirk

Worse than playing badly, not making shots, it's his atitude! He doesn't care!

No one can guarantee us that his value won't fall even further. Not sure who we could get for him at this stage, best option is probably to hope he changes his atitude and plays well next season.

Would you trade him for Richard Jefferson, if money wasn't an issue?

^As a Nets fan I wouldn't trade Richard Jefferson for Josh Howard.^

Howard is a more perimeter oriented version of RJ, and his boneheaded plays in the clutch (that Miami series was brutal) has always caused me to dislike the guy...

I think unloading Josh Howard for Corey Maggette would be a good move for the Mavs though.

Sure Maggette isn't that good on defense, but he's pretty consistent on offense and his explosiveness is just what the Mavs need right now.

Plus when Maggette runs the break he doesn't back the ball out and take jumpers like J-Ho.

people put me on ignore because I had JES12 disease and wouldn't let Howard's pot smoking go. Now, it's the norm - it's vogue to run him down because of it. Yet, some posters still have ol' YDM on ignore. They never will see the greatness of my posts then. Oh well! :rofl:

I'd rather hope Howard re-focuses this off-season (off the pot) than trade him for Jefferson or Maggette.
