Diaw's asking for $10 million a year, so I would assume that would be around the figure that Howard would ask for (both young, versitile, defensive guys). I can see Vince costing a bit more simply because he's Vince. Howard would be my best bet. He's a young defensive guy that can mold and gel with the young guns of the Magic. You really can't go wrong with him or Diaw though, I'd just stay away from Vince...
I agree with the majority about getting Howard. He just seems like he would fit in nicely with the Magic. Diaw is great and such a versatile player, but who knows how he'll play outside of Phoenix. Like Gators said, with Howard, we know what we're getting. I wouldn't want Vince either.
One thing that pisses me off lately is how everyone is saying that Orlando will get Vince. It is his hometown and everything, but everyone blows the thing way out of proportion.

It's just like how everyone went crazy about the fact that Magloire wants to come play for T.O. and how he might get traded there. As for the topic, as I said earlier Howard is the way to go; young, athletic, strong, wont demand too much money, wont need to have the ball alot.
