Dwight Howard can become a free agent yet AGAIN but there likely won’t be a “Dwightmare” this time around.  With his nagging injuries and decline in production, teams aren’t banging down his door quite like they were before.  Howard has also said he wants to remain with the Houston Rockets but the Boston Celtics have reportedly engaged in trade talks.

Meanwhile, the Celtics have engaged the Houston Rockets in talks about a possible deal for Dwight Howard, the Daily News has learned. Howard can opt out of his contract this summer, and considering his back and knee issues, it doesn’t make much sense for Boston GM Danny Ainge to use the assets on a player with declining skills and a battered body.

Boston, which either owns or controls the Brooklyn Nets’ next three first-round picks, are positioned to make a major move either before the trade deadline or this summer around the draft.
