<div class="quote_poster">Karma Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">My point exactly. Therefore, how is Howard more valueable to the Mavs than Dirk is? If Dirk was not on the Mavs, would Josh Howard's game be better or would it be exposed? Howard is great, but Dirk is the franchise; that's the difference between them.</div> Howard would be as good as he is right now with or without Dirk. Without Howard and Terry, Dirk won't be nearly as good a player as he is. He gets to play one on one every night and rarely gets double teamed 'coz of his surrounding talent. Howard and Terry help Dirk put up great numbers more than Dirk helping Howard and Terry put great numbers.
Sorry to burst your bubble Mavs fans but that will be the day when the Lakers trade KObe to Dallas or any team in the western conference... and for peanuts??? Sorry. Kobe is not going anywhere anytime soon.
