yep but it's not happening.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

I can't believe people voted against it. I am big on Curry and I have some faith that we will make the playoffs but its Dwight Howard we are talking about.

Probably misterearl and holfresh.

Howard is a bonified Franchise player.

He is a player that can win a championship in a few yrs.

Orlando wouldn't even consider this deal.

Nope. And if history taught us anything, the Lakers will pick him up when he's a free agent and win about 34 more championships.

tough call, but I'd say yes because Lee and Howard would be ridiculously good and I do think Howard is a legit franchise player. though he doesn't have anywhere near the offensive repetoir that Eddy does and he probably will never be the scorer Eddy is, but he's a two way player and I don't think we'd ever get outrebounded again.

Anyone who voted for "no" should be banned immediately.

Howard is a legit Franchise player.

Curry is a nice offensive player but useless on the defensive end.

Frye is a poor mans Clarence Weatherspoon.

Weatherspoon averaged 16.2 pts and 8.4 rebs his first 5 years in the league. Does anybody think that Frye gets anywhere close to that?

frye is not going to reach his potential here. frye is a center and he can play in the post. he CAN become a better overall player than eddy if developed as a center. but that's not happening here.

I agree DJ that's one of the more frustrating things I see with this team is the improper use of developing Frye. No doubt if used correctly I feel he's ceiling is far higher than Curry's but because he's diminished to being a flunkie role player he'll be traded away eventually.

I dont know about him having a higher ceiling than curry but yeah I dont think Frye's being used right here. but this roster is totally mis-matched. it seems like we have a bunch of individually got players that dont fit together.

Yeah, I do the deal, and I also would do N8, Q and Jamal for LeBron. And I possibly could be talked into Marbs and Balkman for Kobe.

As we all know, moreso than any other league, winning in the NBA is all about how good your top-tier talent is. That's our biggest problem: We do not have any player that can be reasonably projected to be a true stud. Someone posted a couple of months ago that we have some fine second-tier talent, as good as any team in the league. But that's all our top four players really are. They're legit NBA starters and are very good, but none are superstars now, and none figure to be superstars in the future. Tough to be a serious winner in the NBA if you lack a true superstar.

The point is, Orlando has a 21-year-old stud in Howard and would probably not trade him for anything less than LeBron.
