    I would be...

    There's maybe a .0003% chance that happens, and that's probably generous

    Not possible, Miami is wayyyy over the cap limit, into luxury tax hell. If they removed Bosh or Wade, they'd still be 8 or 9 million over the cap (roughly). They'd need to somehow get rid of 2 of the Big 3, without getting anything in return, and Dwight would have to take about a 50% pay cut.

    Cap is 58.044 mil, for now

    I see. Thanks guys. Has me excited a bit 'cuz Miami was the last team I could think of that would seem attractive other than staying in LA. I thought Brooklyn but not sure if BK is willing to part with Lopez since he's improving. Guess we'll see.

    So anyone have a guess at the odds now that Houston gets Howard? Cybrex? Spoons? Ricksmith ? Lol

    That's very optimistic, perhaps a little too optimistic.

    I'd say:

    Lakers 70%
    Rockets 20%
    Other 10%

    James Harden and Dwight Howard just started following each other on twitter today.

    Must've have been a nice pool party. I wonder if Harden's pool is shaped like a beard?

    Harden just did yesterday. Dwight doesn't follow Harden though.

    Really? I've been watching a lot of tape on Josh Smith recently and he seems to play like Howard-lite.

    no they dont play nothing alike. josh smith can actually shoot the ball in a somewhat competent basis unlike howard.

    Why are we going after Howard instead of Josh Smith? They are both free agents, aren't they?

    Because Dwight is a game changer, Smith is at best, a third wheel.
