Howard won't be traded to Dallas, but next summer? That's a whole different story.
On Tuesday, the inevitable rumors of discontent from the Rockets -- who have improved somewhat since firing Kevin McHale but are still two games under .500 -- were put out there among the NBA blogosphere. Dwight Howard is apparently unhappy playing as the second option next to James Harden, the report from Chris Sheridan said, presenting the idea that Houston was prepared to trade him.
Sheridan has a very marginal track report, which is why I didn't write this post yesterday, but that didn't stop speculation on Twitter and in our own email chain about the Mavericks trading for Houston's aging center if they are indeed looking to ship him somewhere.
