He would've gotten more than one year and a good portion of the MLE from some team this summer had he not torn his ACL.
Probably not, and it's got nothing to do with the national anthem, it's got something to do with the fact he can't stay healthy and has questionable production when he is healthy. If 2006-2007 Josh Howard did what he did, he'd still get a multi-year contract.
That word doesn't mean what you think it means. Which specific sponsors declined to do a promotion with Dallas after Howard dissed the national anthem?
Duh. Nobody wants to pay Howard $11 million a year.His option is not going to get picked up next year.
Not while he's rehabbing a torn ACL. That's basic logic that you learn in school.Will he get a new multi-year contract or not?
Assuming he comes back and is the same player he was before hurting his ACL, he'd get more than one year and a sizable portion of the MLE from some team. I'd say 3 years, $12 million is something a healthy Howard could get in this market. If teams are so scared off by Howard's antics, why did the Wizards trade for him? Why did the Mavs hold onto him for almost two years after he dissed the anthem instead of trading him back then?Don't avoid the question
Excuses.
He's torn his ACL, plenty of players recover from this and he'll be ready for training camp.
I told you guys a year ago that Josh Howard wouldn't get another multi-year contract when we first discussed this.
Outside of Toronto, of course, since they don't care.
Plenty of players recover from a lot of things. Doesn't mean they all get multi-year contracts before they've shown they can recover.
More excuses.
It doesn't matter how good Josh Howard is, he's on his way out of the NBA; due to his national anthem stunt.
And I've said this before; y'all didn't believe me then and you don't believe me now.
But you will in a few years.
Lets say tomorrow Lebron James makes a public statement that he doesn't have to sing the national anthem because he is black. Would he not get a multi-year contract offer this off season?
That's LeBron James. He will get his contract after a few apologies. Same with the MJ's, Kobe's and Duncan's of the world.
Guys like Josh Howard, Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood, <mid level player> would not survive something like that.
lol why is not singing the national anthem such a problem? Josh Howard is pissed because this country has always been racist towards blacks, so he's not singing the national anthem. Big ing deal.
If he does it and nobody notices; nobody cares.
But it's a public relations disaster if you get caught. And the team loses potential sponsors because of it. These fat-cat owners don't want to lose money.
Just look at Abdoul Rouf and Craig Hodges.
They're exactly what happens when you are public about being un-patriotic.
Un-patriotic guys are batting 100% when it comes to leaving the NBA. And Josh Howard is on his way out.
agreed. Even if someday Lebron relapsed to his habit of marijuana smoking, it'd be taken as a MOVEMENT followed by millions rather than something shameful.That's LeBron James. He will get his contract after a few apologies. Same with the MJ's, Kobe's and Duncan's of the world.
Guys like Josh Howard, Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood, <mid level player> would not survive something like that
I'm sure he is relieved he tore his ACL. Now he has an excuse. NBA is better off without losers like Howard in the league.
LOL@ Wizards
That's an idiotic thing to post.
Who are you, Dr. James Andrews? He's probably looking at a 9-12 month recovery period. Nobody is signing him until he passes a physical.He's torn his ACL, plenty of players recover from this and he'll be ready for training camp.
Your whole premise is re ed. If he gets healthy, he can get two years and a sizable portion of the MLE from some team.I told you guys a year ago that Josh Howard wouldn't get another multi-year contract when we first discussed this.
Outside of Toronto, of course, since they don't care.
"Smokedawg baby! Remember that ! Been smokin since I was two!!!"
I'm used to Mavfan excuses.
More excuses. Typical from Mavfan.Who are you, Dr. James Andrews? He's probably looking at a 9-12 month recovery period. Nobody is signing him until he passes a physical.
Nobody's gonna pick up his option year and nobody is signing him to a multi-year contract.
Let me know when he does. Until then; he's done.Your whole premise is re ed. If he gets healthy, he can get two years and a sizable portion of the MLE from some team.
I know, Mono, I know.
I know, Mono, I know.more spin control from Allanon. You said halfway thru his rookie year that he had already "peaked" as a player, and then tried to retract that by making up that "role player" bull .
Bull Mono. I know you're bitter that Randolph is a role player, like good 'ol Allanon toldja.
I can find the thread if you like. Want to call me on it?
You feeling like getting owned again by me tonight? I'll put in the work to own your ass
How can anybody be this obtuse? Look it up on dictionary.com, I don't think you know what it means.
I don't think you know what "excuse" means. Three days ago he was looking at Washington not picking up his option and having to settle for a portion of the MLE on the open market. If Brandon Bass can get 4 years, $18 million from Orlando, then Josh Howard can get more than 1 year and the vet minimum since he's a former All Star and was playing well in Washington.More excuses. Typical from Mavfan.
Now he's looking at a 9-12 month rehab followed by having to prove he's healthy. Once he does, he's looking at a portion of the MLE, just like before the trade.
while he's rehabbing a torn ACL.Nobody's gonna pick up his option year and nobody is signing him to a multi-year contract.
Your premise is that teams won't touch him because of him dissing the national anthem. That's dumb.Let me know when he does. Until then; he's done.
I guarantee you Josh Howard three days ago could've gotten 3 years, $12 million from San Antonio.
Excuses and changing the subject, eh Findog? Still bitter about that Hey Allanon thread?
More Mavfan excuses to go with your 1 ring.blah blah
Let's not make excuses.. Show me when Smokey gets his multi year contract.
Until then, he's on his way out.
Find it, it's right there for everyone to see. You said he peaked as a player, dirk4mvp and I called you on your bull , then you tried to back out of it by saying you "meant he'd never be more than a role player". Let everyone see how re ed you are.
Either that or everyone will see the extremely late post edit.
Alright, let's make this exciting.
I find it, you put "I'm Allanon's " at the top left of your your sig for a YEAR. I don't find it and I'l put "I'm Mono's " at the top left of my sig for a YEAR. In REGULAR sized text, no small print. You must enable your sig.
Stick your sig where your fat mouth is. Deal, Mono?
