D. Howard was a beast and a difference maker when he was younger/healthier and the league style of play rewarded big men.
D.Howard is in the same catagory as Vince Carter, just a borderline Hall of Famer.
Second, Webber > Howard. Webber > TMac too.
Chris Webber is one of the greatest PF of all time. He WON wherever he went. Warriors, Bullets and Kings. Warriors and Bullets were irrelevant before he got there, with him, they're a playoff team. Kings were a perennial contender when he was there. He left, and the Kings are back to being irrelevant again.
It's appaling that a guy like TMac who has never gotten past the 1st round is in the HOF and Webber is not.Mamba Mentality

And sadly for Webber his resume is not better than T-Mac, and I don't think it's better than Howard either. Whether he was actually better than him in his prime or not is irrelevant.That is a normal collar. Move on, find a new slant.

Blow it up mode. 3-way trade.
To Clippers: Lowry, Derozan
To Dallas: DeAndre Jordan, Norman Powell
To Raptors: Tobias Harris, Gallo, Wes Matthews, LAC picks (#12 & #13), Mavs pick (#5)
Dallas is apparently really hot for DeAndre Jordan, so they can flip Matthews and a 1st round pick to get him and Powell (... Norm doesn't have to be in the deal to make it work).
If the Clips need a center, we could toss in Jakob and the deal still works.

For all those that get a hard one for Andrew Wiggins:
Sources familiar with the situation told Sporting News that Jimmy Butler is uncertain about playing with Andrew Wiggins — Butler had problems last season with Wiggins, his work ethic and his approach on the defensive end of the floor. Thibodeau has had similar problems with Wiggins in the past, too, and he had some hope that bringing a tough-minded veteran like Butler into the locker room would spur Wiggins to improve. It didn’t.

Clippers: Get an instant all-star backcourt in their prime, who can get them into the playoffs. Doc Rivers is under a lot of pressure to win now.
Raps: Get 3 1st round picks & 3 serviceable NBA players who can all shoot from distance. Can be packaged for future trades. The pressure on Nurse/Ujiri to win 59 games is off, and we still have the option to tank for Barrett. Nurse gets to install his habits with a blank slate, without having to battle Lowry and Derozan.
Mavs: Get the big man they've coveted for a long time and a young athletic wing player to replace Matthews.
Bonus: Derozan goes home, so we reward him for his loyalty and send him with his best buddy, who will love the attention in L.A.
Win. Win. Win. Win.

I think it makes sense for Dallas and for us (though I feel it's better for us than anything else) - though I believe we should be sending another asset to Dallas: maybe Wright?
