No
He's not a superstar anymore. But will expect superstar pay and treatment. Not a good fit for us.
From Duncan to Howard :lol
Would that be the biggest drop off for intangibles in nba history?
I rather have Hibbert.
Younger, cheaper and more coachable
spurs should just go after andrew bynum
:lolQuote:

My other concern would be the absence of Tim (and likely Manu) in the leadership department CANNOT be replaced by Howard. This is obvious. But when Howard begins his diva routine or complaining about shots or smiling and not caring after losses, how will this affect other players? What a contrast to Tim. LMA, for example, has ditched the diva stuff and come on board and fallen in line. I somehow can't see Howard doing the same as he's failed to do so everywhere he goes. Will LMA's inner diva re-rise if Howard is allowed to play around and bitch? Without Tim there it is more likely. Pop can only police so much. Fortunately Pop and RC know this.
Howard had things perfect for himself in Orlando. He torpedoed it. He was then unhappy because Kobe and the Beard took up too many shots (surprise, surprise). Well Kawhi and LMA would eat first in the Spurs. Unless he's grown up and learned to accept that he's an aging DeAndre Jordan, he'll never flourish anywhere. Even in SA.
And if somehow the money to pay for Howard would materialize (and it won't) I'd rather use it on Al Holford if Timmy retires. Or beg David West to come back. Or throw it at a stud young point guard.
Solid take Bill :toast
Thanks man!:boboQuote:

The defense might be even better than it is now though....Damn....
Yeah, issue #1 it's clearly his discipline and fit into the Club. Also, I'm not sure that Pop wants to deal with the Hack-a-Player problem. Although the NBA is aimed at changing these foul rules this Summer.Quote:

He has been with 3 different franchises and has had incidents/on-court dysfunction with all 3 of them:lol..drama follows him everywhere, not to mention that he's a pedophile with 50 kids..
