We are all hoping, praying, and fantasizing about it. How do we make it happen?

Collect tradable assets like we began doing with the Wallace deal. It will have to be a Carmelo like situation, but if we've got several talented pieces to send them and take on CP3 + Okafor's contract I think we're in business.

As for Howard, I think that is less likely. If we get Paul, we would be left with nothing to trade for Howard really. The trick would be finding a way to get Paul while still leaving a ton of cap room. Being that we would need to take on Okafor in the CP3 deal, I doubt that happens. It would be interesting to see ideas though.

One step in the right direction is not hiring Stan Van Gundy as coach. That's all I've got.

We have a 0% chance at Howard & a 10% chance at Paul imo, I believe we'd be better off picking up assets off other teams for nothing that are trying to clear cap space for those guys.

I think we should go for it. In my opinion, Paul or Howard would mean a winning record in the East, no matter what's the supporting cast.

I wonder if we can get some "3rd team" trade deal going on with Miami and ORL?

We can say "go for it" as much as we want, we will not be signing either of those players.
