Good luck, JC, wherever you end up.

He's going to Houston to play with Howard. I think it's going to be just them two on the roster because the Rockets are going to amnesty Scola and send everyone else to Orlando to acquire Dwight.

Then next season when Howard walks, Calderon will play alone.

The Raptors have not been relevant since the days of Vinsanity. Granted this is the off season and we're lacking news :o)

And still win more games than the Bobcats this year. It's a miracle!

For 1/2 season at best. Don't forget that part, since If Dwight does somehow end up in Houston he won't be staying unless his back is so jacked up he has no choice, in which case who'll care anyway.

Dwight will have lingering back issues the rest of his career. Forget his athleticsm. It's gone. Amare and Larry Johnson are prime examples with the latter compeled to retire. In light of that Howard will get all the money he can get from whatever team he goes to because his playing days can be cut in a blink. Whichever team gets him he's bound to reup with them...

I do like Jose, but he really is a low end starter/back up caliber player and he makes too much $

I haven't seen his contract but if he's a good defender we should trade him for Fields. He'll get minutes at the 2 and third string point. With Kid's age and Lin's weak bones he'll sure see some action...

I always forget how good Larry Johnson once was. But you're right - bad backs and big men don't mix.

I think his back is a problem and that's why Orlando is in a hurry to trade him. It wouldn't be a good thing to have him suit up and show the world that he's hurting and limited in his game.

Houston beware!

Fields is gone - They will not match his offer
