How, D20 has worn out this welcome in the ATL. Good move for the Hornets.

Pretty solid move for Charlotte. They aren't winning championships but Walker, Howard, and the #11 pick (especially if its Monk) should be enough to get you to 4 or 5 in the East for the next handful of seasons. That sounds like no man's land but for a franchise that's an afterthought, its a necessary stepping stone.

This is the dumbest possible move for Atlanta to make. They take the contract of Miles fucking Plumlee...Are you kidding me???

Great move by the Hornets.

If I'm Jordan, I'd sit Dwight down and tell him "hey let's be real now, you're not the 20 and 14 guy you were in Orlando anymore. But that doesn't matter. Go out there next year and win DPOY again. Reclaim your spot as the best defensive big men."

Charlotte is going to have an excellent defense with Dwight anchoring the middle especially if someone can convince him to just focus on being a defensive beast. Add Batum and MKG who are long wing defenders with Kemba. They're going to be a nasty defense. If they somehow added a Draymond type of power forward, they can be this era's Pistons (04 version)

That's only if Dwight can become Ben Wallace

You know that old saying about the 2 greatest days of a boat owner.
The day you buy your boat and the day you sell your boat.

It's the same thing when it comes to Dwight Howard.

Your 2 greatest days with Dwight is the day you trade for him and the day you trade him away.

DWIGHT HOWARD would have been the #1 overall pick in a league wide dispersal draft from 2007-2010.

Even more than Lebron, teams would have picked a young athletic Howard.

Father time destroyed this guy so quickly in a blink.

So I don't think the Hawks saved anything in salary.

Good move for the Hornets. They have a pretty good cornerstone there in Walker, a guy like Howard will help them a lot.
