Might as well start trading off those assets and rebuild.

We'll give you Calderon and 2 In n Out burgers for KP.

Throw in some monster fries and find a pasture field for Calderon and I'll think about it.

KP's not go'n anywhere for about 10-12 Yrs.

when Phil gives Rose that 5yr $150mil extension, it will be the biggest troll job in the history of sports management

I believe that 150 mil. figure is bogus.

Not sure what's gonna happen but something's gotta give.

Dwight

Just six months after the Atlanta Hawks signed hometown kid Dwight Howard to a 3-year, $70.5M deal – It seems if the Hawks front office is already ready to unload him to somebody else, according to ESPN’s Zach Lowe.

The New Orleans Pelicans need help at the five-spot and they no longer want franchise big man Anthony Davis there, so they exploratory talks with the Atlanta Hawks and it centered around Dwight Howard.

Two of the worst offensive players on the New Orleans Pelicans (Omer Asik and Alexis Ajinca) are traditional centers and Pelicans management is desperately trying to fix that so Davis can return to his natural position as power forward.

Unfortunately for them, the Hawks later yanked all of its key players, including forward Paul Millsap, off of the trade market, as they intend to compete in the Eastern Conference and make as deep a run as possible in the playoffs.

Howard is averaging 14 points and 13 rebounds a game.
