08:15 AM ET 02.01 | Over the past few weeks, it seems Dwight Howard has expanded his horizons to include the Bulls and Celtics, but some of that may be reading too much into his recent comments. Magic General Manager Otis Smith told the Orlando Sentinel that Howard's camp has not indicated to the Magic that the superstar center has expanded his list of preferred trade destinations beyond his original three teams: the New Jersey Nets, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks. Unless Howard says he would be interested in signing a long-term deal with the Bulls, it's highly unlikely a trade gets done between Orlando and Chicago. ... Magic officials have said all along that their preference is to try and keep Howard.

Wizards should allow the Magic a 62 point game. (S) <-- Sarcasm Button .Sign with the Nets. Lakers and Mavs are too old and the Lakers will probably win only one more title with Kobe. The Mavs on the other hand haven't proven they can win more than the one fluke...Go to the Nets and build your new team!

We'll Take Him....

speaking for myself-I don't fault dwight for wanting out or wanting to stay......What I do fault him for is being a freakin teenage girl and flip flopping back and forth between what he wants to do.He is a grown MAN- make a decision and stand by it.

Well said. Because of this, the "DwightMare" continues.

IMO, if this goes past the March 15th deadline, he is going to be with the Mavs. Cuban has been positioning Dallas for this very deal. And Cuban, like him or not, will do the things necessary to acquire players for the Mavs to repeat and Howard to win a ring.
