Bulls would probably give the Magic whatever they want (outside Rose)if Howard had them on hist and take on Hedo & Duhon. Since they aren't its a moot point. I am not sure Howard would like the very cold weather there and seeing Rose be in the spotlight through out his career (even though they are like brothers according to both athletes and Adidas said they have no problem with them in once city either.) over him.

You can turn around and trade Deng for Ellis if you wanted since reportedly that's one guy the Warriors would trade Ellis for.

Howard did say he'd play for chicago, didn't he? although that was probably just to deflect criticism of him not wanting to play for a winning team and the "addidas theory"

"If God wants him to" according to him.

Noah/Asik
Anderson/BBD
Deng/Q
JRich/JJ
Nelson/Duhon

i'd enjoy watching that team, but i wouldn't expect it to do much more than a 2nd round appearance. unless Anderson becomes super-sayan efficient.

wow that team would STRUGGLE to score. i would rather watch lopez/anderson combine for 50 pts per game and draft some good perimeter defenders than watch deng become our number 1 option.

Swing BBD for taj into that trade, spin it by saying it helps them keep dwight. . .
then We'd have some money in 2013 though. . .add a good free agent and that team is even better. . .

I'd trade Asik and J-Rich to GS for Monta

Because, as we've seen, it is SO simple to trade with Golden State. . .

Asik is another player the Warriors covet from the Bulls reportedly. Warriors insiders say they would trade Ellis for Deng or Noah. Not sure Asik + Charlotte Pick + Brewer is enough though (most likely not). I can't imagine how tough it is to deal with the Warriors' front office.

[arkknight1988]

im at the point where i don't care what move is made as long as jj and anderson stay with orlando. those guys play hard every night.

Either they are oblivious to how the rest of the league thinks (which wouldn't shock me), or they are just putting on a front.

Sweet, a little over a week left before all the juicy stuff starts happening. Maybe the wait won't be as bad as I thought...

[Nyce_1]

Deng/Noah/Asik/Taj/CJ/Picks

For

Howard/Turk/BBD/Duhon ????

I'd do it. Then maybe a Jameer/Asik for Monta deal as well.

Monta/CJ
JRich/JJ
Deng/Wafer
Ryan/Taj
Noah/FA

Maybe our backup center will be Vazquez

[OTownHoopstar23]

If we can even get CJ Watson, we are a better team..he's no
Monta but he sure is an upgrade over Nelson and doo doo

No. Watson is not an upgrade over Jameer.

Funny how many people complain about Otis s trades and post even worse trade on this thread.

So far i have not seen a single trade that make us a better team.

I think we should keep the core team as it is, finding a back up C would be cool thoug

Well, when you have to trade the best center in the game, you wont get equal value from anyone.

[ZeusIsLoose]

If the Magic beat Pacers, Bulls, and Heat in the next few games, you better believe Howard aint going anywhere.
