    Great to hear. Howard is definitely a part of the rotation, if not the starting lineup, and his presence alongside any post player will be beneficial. He picks his spots well, and is wise about his shot selection. Having a healthy Howard is definitely a boost to our power forward lineup.

    Good news, considering the mess at the point guard position. By the end of the season, Howard became a crucial part of the team last season and did a great job developing a better rebounding game to help Yao out in the low post. He's a pretty good offensive powerforward when needed and will obviously provide a boost in the second unit for us.

    He should start. His consistency at PF will help us get off to quick starts. I like what he did last year, and he showed that he can still play in this league

    Losing him last season was big part of why we lost to the Mavs in the playoff series and i hope he can continue to stay healthy.
