        Another one I thought of is Vince Carter. Not 5 in 5, but he had 4 in 4. Went from Nets to Magic to Suns to Mavs from 08/09-11/12. Starter on all those teams, playing 25+ mins a game.

        Kevin Willis from 94/95-98/99 went from Atlanta to Miami to Golden State to Houston to Toronto. Averaged over 13 points,almost 9 rebounds in 30 minutes a game. Don't know reasoning for him going from team to team though. Those years are literally summed up in a few lines on Wikipedia lol.


        Regardless of reason anyone bounced from team to team, still can't think of any starter in Howards situation. Willis was closest I could find and even then, he was 32-36 during these years. Howard is 30-34 during these moves and posting about 15 and 12 a game.

          Won't matter.

          He went from Chris Mullin to Chris Hemsworth.

          All the new booty in Chicago is going to negate all that progress this off season.

            Lol. It's not even July yet. Early to start the annual "dude got way bigger/slimmer in the offseason" photos yet. Looks like someone used The Rock's IG filter on that one tho.

                If BK is creating 2 max slots, then I'm sure they're almost certainly targeting Kyrie Irving next summer. Who they wanting to pair up with him?

                    Don't see anyway in hell Klay leaves GS. He's given zero indication he wants to be the main guy and there were even reports of him willing to take a steep discount to stay in GS.

                    One talking head on FS1 threw out the idea of Kyrie and Jimmy Butler. That'd be a hard pass if I was GM of BK. Maybe Kyrie and Kawhi if he doesn't sign an extension wherever he ends up?

                      There's a reason that makes sense, but the name should still probably be the "2018 offseason" thread.

                        When talented young dudes decide to just hit the gym one summer, the results are terrifying.

                        I remember those first pictures of Giannis before his MIP year. Dude went from Bol to swole and hasn’t looked back since.

                          Kings seem like they’re about to do something stupid.

                          Yahoo: There is legitimate indecision within the Kings front office between Marvin Bagley and Luka Doncic. One league source used the term “torn.” Teams I’ve spoken with are operating under the impression that Sacramento will select Bagley at two.

                          The Kings also have been enamored with Michael Porter Jr. Throughout the predraft process and he remains in the conversation at 2, a league source says. But, more so as a wildcard, given how highly they think of both Bagley and Doncic.

                              Kyle O'Quinn opted out. He'd be a nice backup C for a playoff squad.
