    Jesus Christ, it looks like we're never going to get back the budding All Star and "next Scottie Pippen." Instead we're left with an immature basketcase.


    http://blogs.dallasobserver.com/spor...er_humbled.php

    Spent my Saturday afternoon down in DeSoto at the first annual Josh Howard Foundation celebrity charity softball game.

    I wish I could report that Josh is sorry for his recent arrest in North Carolina for drag racing. I wish I could report that Josh regrets his late-season admission that he smokes pot. And I wish I could report that Josh is atwitter about the upcoming basketball season, ready to redeem himself after a horrible post All-Star break that ended in his total flameout against the Hornets in the playoffs.

    But, sorry, I can’t report any of that. Because the truth is – in his first public comments since the July 31 arrest – Josh was merely pissed at the media.

    Though myself and The Ticket’s Donovan Lewis were at the ready, we get to blame CW33 reporter Sandra Hernandez for lighting Josh’s fuse. It’s not like she went all Becky Oliver or even Brett Shipp on Howard. She did, however, ask this question:

    “With the recent events you’ve been involved in, do you still consider yourself a good role model for kids?”

    Not fair to call it an incident. So far the video hasn’t made it past CW33’s newscast. But no doubt Josh became agitated, even physically and emotionally aroused.

    “I don’t know nothing about what you just said,” Howard snapped as he initially walked away from Hernandez and her cameraman, only to return seconds later. “That don’t make sense for you to … that’s the last thing you should axe me. That’s not what it’s about out here. It’s about giving back to the community. That’s the only thing it’s about. Nobody don’t have time for that, man. Like, for real.”

    Howard, of course, has a point. With his foundation's second charity event in the area this summer, he was again signing autographs and raising money for children. But he also missed a golden opportunity to lace the positivity of his appearance with an apology for his irresponsible actions last month.

    While Howard was being calmed by former Mavs’ teammate Greg Buckner, two of his publicists efforted to nip the scene in the bud. “We’re gonna cut off the interview right now!”

    To his credit, Howard returned minutes later and talked to Lewis and I about all things not marijuana- or handcuff-related. But when asked about new head coach Rick Carlisle and the upcoming season, Howard sorta mumble-grumbled:

    “It’s still summer, man.”

    Not long ago I loved Josh Howard. These days I worry about him.

    Too bad we can't trade this guy because about all we could get in return is a big bag of . He probably needs a change of scenery at this point to be effective again.

    best we can probably do is trade him to a team that is under the cap for a 2nd round pick, a D-Leaguer and cash considerations

    You know you want Bonner. This is the franchise that embraced KVH, and Austin Croshere. He'd make a fine third jewel in the goofy white jump shooter Triple Crown.

    I'm sure Donnie would love to take on Bonner to have a wanna be Dirk coming off the bench. last season wasnt the same w/o a spare white PF coming off the bench to replace Dirk

    Could have had Artest for him.

    I'm not even shocked or pissed by this. It's just expected at this point.

    I said from Day 1 that Josh Howard would learn nothing and that they'd better trade him ASAP for whatever they can get. This team will fail miserably with this ing piece of trash on the roster.

    This all started spiraling out of control right around the time they traded Devin Harris.

    more like getting bounced in the first round against GSW or maybe blowing 2-0 lead in the Finals....I'm mean there are so many its hard to pin-point one specific event

    In effect the Mavs lost both Devin Harris and Josh Howard for Jason Kidd. Neither one has contributed to the Mavs since the trade. No wonder they look so ordinary these days.

    J-Ho has done some mistakes but he is right on this one.
    He is doing a charity even and a journalist go after him and asked him a BS question.
    Josh is spending time to allow some kids to have a good time. Who ing care if he isn't a role model ? He isn't saying to kids do like me.
    this journalist.
