Probably not. I'm just thinking about big men that could help us. I'm not a really big Howard fan but he would help us. Mos teams wouldn't trade a guy like that, but Maybe maybe maybe Houston would if they got a lot of picks/assets.

Howard is still a dominant Center, but I'm wary of tacking on a player who relied so much on athleticism, and is slowly getting up with age, injuries, and lack of a real post game is what has been the downfall for Howard.

I hope not .

He is very fragile now .  Seems to get hurt all the time.

Howard , Melo , Josh Smith all now looking for a title team to glum on too.   On the backside of their career .  Howard's days of being THE MAIN guy are numbered.....too many young bigs that are set to embarrass him very soon.   Example ..Whitside , Drummond, Oakfor , others and others yet to arrive.

Howard's best may have come and gone already.

After we have established a core contender ......adding these players to come of the bench to win a title is OK.

We still need a core first.

The only way I would want to trade for Howard is if he picked up his option for next year as part of the deal. I don't see that happening.

If he looks relatively healthy I would target him as a free agent if he opts out.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

The reason I ask, is that I really really like what we have at the 1 2 and 3. And so far, aside from Amir I don't really like what we have at the 1 and 2. I think Smart can be the 3rd best starter on a championship team and AB can be the 4th and Crowder can be the 5th. So im interested in any guys that are 4s and 5s that could be a 1st or 2nd option.

No way, and I don't think he is the solution. The team needs shooting!  I am pretty happy with the front court and the guards.
