"It was just a very tough situation for everybody to let go," Howard said. "I'm finally glad that it's over with. Myself and the Magic organization, we can all start over and begin a new career. Today is a fresh new start for all of us."

But forget the impact Howard’s trade is currently having on the Lakers odds.  The move resulted in Orlando’s odds going into the triple digits at 100-1.
