I agree with you on this there is no way he should even be on the allstar roster he has also been hurt twice so far this season if he is having an all star season then Al Jefferson is having an MVP season. They need to get away from the fans voting in the starters. Maybe have them vote in the 11th and 12th players on each side or something like that.

I dont think Dwight really bares any of the blame for how miserable the Lakers have been this year. You have to remember that hes not the only weapon anymore, like he was with the Magic last year.

So his scoring is down 4 points, yeah but his FG% is actually slightly up, as are his blocked shots. His rebounds are bound to fall when you add another 7 footer to the mix.

Having said that, I do think that there are more deserving centers for the all-star game. But its really unfair to say that Dwight is responsible for how the Lakers are playing. Particularly when Pau Gasol is putting up career low numbers in points and FG%, and plays about as much defense as a microwaved marshmallow.

I agree Howard is not the reason why the Lakers are struggling all i was saying was that i do not think he is having an all star season and you are also right with Gasol. I think Gasol needs to go to a different team he does not seem happy anymore but he is also on the down side of his career.

Not really because then the Lakers don't have a center... And I doubt BKN even want Howard since they are doing pretty well as is. Plus Min doesn't need a center because they already have pekovic and you can't find a player like Kevin love in a lot of drafts so I ont see them trading him. This trade has a lot of problems with it and it would never happen.

They still wouldn't trade him for a Center when he's a PF though. And since there is no other PF in the game right now that is better than him, they wont trade him unless they get a better deal. If Lakers could give Min Pau Gasol, supply them with a key player from another team (At the SG/SF position), and then a first round pick or two then they might make the trade but i still doubt it.
