I know, I know, he's supposedly gone.  He did something egregious that he can't make up for.  Burned bridges, yada, yada, yada.

But...

What if he not only stays, but the guys who had beef with him are gone?  I know, or think I know, the issue with him was something he did to hurt the team as a whole, not individual guys specifically.  But what if the main dudes who didn't gel with him were the seniors and Lydon?  He has weaknesses on the court but he showed, to me at least, that he can play better when he's the complimentary guard instead of the lead guard.  With the possibility that we could play a 'small' lineup with Battle at SF next season, Howard at SG could actually work out pretty well with only slight improvements needed to his already considerably better shooting stroke.  He's a capable passer who just needs to work on ball security and decision making.

Thoughts?  Can he get his head right and contribute next season or is he truly a lost cause?  He's a 6'5", former top 100 recruit.  I'd like to think there's still some upside left.  2 season nowadays seems like an eternity.  10 years ago, a player 2 seasons into his career was just scratching the surface of his potential.
