Trade Dwight Howard for Tim Duncan?

No, will never happen. Mark my words.

I take you base your hypothesis solely on the fact that Howard is younger than Duncan.

That alone could never be the sole reason for a trade.

Of course you'd trade Duncan for Howard. The Magic are title contenders because of Howard even if it isn't obvious to you. Do you honestly think a team featuring Hedo Turkoglu and Rashard Lewis would be a finals contender without Howard?

Howard is the best young center in the game and he'll be contending for championships for the next decade.

Duncan on the other hand, while still great, is struggling to stay healthy. He can't have many years left.

I'm not surprised you said that. You're a Mav fan after all.

Youre an idiot.

Its a thing called loyalty. Timmy stayed with us when he couldve went to Orlando to play alongside Grant Hil. He made us relevant in the NBA, he got us four titles. He has taken pay cuts to help out the team financially.

Now explain to me why the fuck we would trade him? I dont give a fuck if the Cavs call and tell us theyll trade LeBron for Duncan, my response will be 'fuck you'. Click. This man deserves to retire a Spur, and have a statue of him made at the entrance of the AT&T Center.

Please put down your pipe before starting a new thread!

:downspin:

this question doesnt deserve to even be posted dwight will never be near duncan even when duncans in a casket

I wouldn't even think about it. Howard is an awesome talent but what Timmy has brought to the Spurs in the past decade will never be forgotten. Furthermore, his tank isn't empty yet. Nonetheless, out of respect & loyalty, I wouldn't even consider a trade.

Its more like I wonder what Howards production will be when hes 27 and in his prime and Duncan's retired.

If Duncan had Howard's physique he would have been the greatest of all humans to ever play basketball.

What a stupid thread. no one would ever trade timmy.

So it appears that most would not be for this trade right now??

If Allen Iverson had Lebron James' physique, he'd probably still be making max contracts and having a couple of rings.

If Matt Bonner had Howard's physique, he would probably be an all star.

If Duncan was 8 inches smaller, he probably wouldn't be an NBA Player.

Should I go on :wakeup

Dirk is the guy who should be dealt. That is when the Mavs will be able to start to built a real team. A defensive minded team, until then the Mavs will just be second rate. :lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2:

Howard's offensive game is way too raw, even as beat-up and worn down as Timmy is his offensive game is still miles ahead of Howard's...all he does is rely on his athleticism and the fact that he's bigger than alot of players. Timmy has the whole package. Howard may get the nod on the defensive end, but Duncan is no slouch on that end...even at his age he is still one of the best defenders and rebounders in the league.

Give me Timmy over Howard right now. A couple a years Howard will be better, but even at his peak Howard will not come close to the player Duncan was in 02-03 when he won back2back MVPs.
