http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1253497-nba-trade-rumors-atlanta-must-stop-pursuing-dwight-howardHe clearly doesn't want to come here, sure he and Smoove are friends but he isn't even on Dwight's top 5 list to play with. Also we would be losing our key centerpiece in Horford, he is the only true star on this team. The only reason the Hawks haven't done the deal is because Horford hasn't even been offered thus far, the Hawks aren't going to get a commitment from Howard so what's the point in losing all of our assets for a rental? If Horford were offered Howard would already be in the ATL, the Hawks obviously have the best offer. Unless Ferry has a secret idea then I don't see the point, other than getting terrible contracts from Orlando ( Richardson or Hedo ) and a complaining superstar in Howard. I can only guess that they want to drive ticket sales for a year, then just start the team completely over next offseason. I like what Ferry has done thus far so I have faith that he will make the right decision. I can imagine talks between Orlando and ATL: ( call it a LOL skit )Hennigan: "so far you have the weakest deal Ferry, you just wanna give scrubs from Johnson trade plus picks... What about Horford?Ferry: "What about Horford? Im not interested in trading him without a commitment from Howard. What about Ivan Johnson? "Hennigan: "Who the hell is Ivan Johnson? Sounds like a scrub."Ferry: "He's no scrub, he is one of the strongest players I've seen... Plus he flicks off Celtics fans."Hennigan: "......... I'll take your offer into consideration."
