What Pack said. Nets have no incentive to resign Howard (and honestly I'm of the belief he gets waived or flipped again by deadline) when they have Allen who has shown great promise this off season. By the way Pack low-key I'm happy for you family.

That was mostly a health/age thing though no? I cant think of any starter/all-star caliber player who cant stick with a team because of his attitude/personality.

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.
