What if the Raps are in the mix of acquiring Dwight Howard or somehow confiscate a move so we can get Dwight Howard to play in the North of the Border and really turn this pathetic franchise around since Vince Carter's era.

Why Toronto: I know this sounds crazy but getting D.Howard has been my wet dreams ever since the Magic acquired Howard in 2004 nba draft. Howard is a beast and I know he would flourish under D.Casey's system since we are all about defense. We may loose two lottery picks along with an established quasi-allstar player in A.Bargnani but I think E.Davis has proven that he may just fit the role as a starting PF for this team, what we lack is the interior presence like Dwight, although we might have to give up on Big V for the trade to work. With this trade and some of our players come off the book, we may have some salary to sign either Wilson Chandler or another free agent this summer to play alongside DeRozan and Howard. Let the new era begin for the Dinos and not to mention we get V.Carter back so he may finally decide to retire as a Rap and a chance for a playoff push at the second half of the season with his old buddy D.Howard.
Why Orlando: By trading Howard and Nelson, the Magic is no longer getting their lucky charm, its time to put the magic show for a rebuild, they acquire some really nice young pieces and a promising allstar-caliber player in Bargnani and with a few picks to come in mind, they are looking to retool the team with some young fresh faces for generation to come, let's just hope Stan Van Gundy is patiently enough to coach the young Magic for a playoff run.
Why Dallas: The Mavericks are to look to defend its title but with the aging Kidd and lack of depth support, they need to add some arsenals to keep the title alive, by acquiring Nelson, a good decent PG, Kidd won't have to play 35 minutes when playoff comes around. Amir Johnson is a decent shot blocker and defender to come off the bench for Nowitzki and getting Turkolu, a veteran sharpshooter, suddenly, the Mavericks seem like a promising team and could aim for the 3rd or 4th spot in the tough Western Conference.
