We're looking at a point guard in the first round. Sounds like theyre ready to move on from Kemba. Would love to see him and Monk play a full year together...assuming Monk gets some serious run this year.

I wouldn't say we were Magic fans but they're close and we lightweight followed the team & rooted for them.
When Dwight decided he didn't want to be there anymore, he just became a complete joke. He can be one of the most unlikeable pro athletes I can remember.

Because, when the first move of your new job is nearly the exact same move that got you fired from your last job, there's a good chance you're a criminal or deviant, and that guy has got the goods.

Talked about it on here before: Dwight should be a great fit for the team. We'd just need him to rebound, block shots, and catch lobs (though his leaping at what it used to be, it'd still work).
However, between West and Livingston's comments and things people close to the team are saying, there were problems with the locker room last season. Particularly with guys new to the team who "had to be shown how things are done here." Only new guys last season were Young and Casspi; one got pretty marginalized by the end of the season (mostly because he stunk while Steph was hurt) and the other got waived.
Which is my long way of saying that the word is that the coaching staff wants to be very careful with who they bring in this off-season. And if goofs/space cadets like Nick Young were causing problems and having the staff longing for the steadying veteran presence of Matt Fricking Barnes, I don't know how a noted locker-room cancer like Howard would go over.

On an expiring contract and at this stage of his career, he will be humongous to everything they do. He will also give all of himself for that one chip.
I also really liked Casspi, and thought they missed him a lot in the playoffs. I understood the waiving, because they needed back up PG's. Dwight will mean everything on that team, and if I was the league, I would do all I can to prevent it.

Honestly this is all the Hornets could get for Howard? Taking on a shittier contract, two second-rounders and some cash? Probably would have made more sense just to buy him out and move on if they were so determined to dump him. They got worse from almost every perspective with this deal, apart from adding a couple of picks they wouldn't have had any trouble acquiring anyway if they were determined.
The Nets obviously set up their 2019 summer and also get an asset here. They won't move it to take on salary but might be an attractive piece to the right team (low-salary team that whiffs in free agency, trade deadline rental for a decent team with some dead expiring salary to match and picks maybe).
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I'll always remember the Dwight Howard Nets era though.
-The time I saw on Twitter that Dwight Howard was getting traded to the Brooklyn -The time I went to OKS to see if someone had already posted it -The posts about Mitch Kupchak's infatuation with Mozgov and speculation that Dwight would be on Golden State by the end of the season. -And now this reply
It just doesn't feel real yet.
