Juwan Howard Case Summary
Power Play for Howard “Successful negotiation involves the management of tangibles (e.g., the price or the terms of an agreement) and also the resolution of intangibles”. (Lewicki, Sanders, and Barry 2005 p. ) With regard to Juwan Howard, the Washington Bullets all-star free agent forward went into negotiation with David Falk over a $100 million contract that was offered by NBA. The negotiations that took place were complicated as all parties involved had to decide what the others move was going to produce. In the end Juwan Howard implemented value by comparing and contrasting the teams’ offers with respect to his personal value. Howard conducted integrative negotiation procedures to produce a “win-win” situation for all parties concerned.

The bond with the fans would not be broken, either. The intangible for the team would be a loss if he decided to leave. It is not easy to find a player of this caliber and the team would not be as strong.
From the perspective of Miami Heat, they had not been able to sign a contract with Mourning, who was their first choice and now they focused on Juwan Howard. He would suit the team perfectly and would help Miami win. Wes Unseld the manager of the Washington Bullets wanted Juwan Howard back. This would lead to more wins for the team and more respect. The contract was a great deal of money and the risk for the manager is he may lose his job. Pat Riley the Heats manager believed that the contract would be a problem. He wanted Juwan Howard to be part of the team but he was investigated by the league because of empty promises that may not happen. This really hurt his reputation throughout the league and the offer for Juwan might not happen if the heat did not get Mourning on the team also.

    This is not surprising to hear that the Sixers are interested in the former point guard's services. A couple of weeks ago, Zach Lowe of ESPN.com mentioned in his column on the Pelicans that the Sixers will take a hard look at Holiday in free agency. However, it doesn't seem like the Pelicans are willing to let go Holiday at this time because they still believe that they can compete for a playoff spot.…

    Before recounting the history of Sam Hinkie, I must first admit that I am an avid Philadelphia 76ers fan, and I am going to be naturally biased. However, as Patricia Nelson Limerick noted in her historical piece of writing, there will always be a writer and a reader. Depending on who the writer and reader is (and other factors such as the past, the environment, etc.) will drastically alter the emotional effect. Along with my personal experience and a few first person accounts of Sam Hinkie, I will attempt to provide a brief – albeit personalized – history of the man who has the money and power to control a professional sports organization with a “push of a button.” Unlike Patricia Nelson Limerick, I am attempting to debrief my reader to my personal biases (and that of my first person sources). Everything I utilize from statistics to factual occurrences will be entirely truthful and nonetheless provide an entirely personal account and history of Sam Hinkie. It will not only show him as the man who makes front office decisions, but the path he traveled down to arrive at his current position and what makes him different than the normal general manager in the NBA. His decisions and the ultimate results could change the business of sports entirely and that is what makes his decision-making process so interesting.…

    Lebron James Desicion

    In case you haven't heard, one of the best basketball players on the globe had a one hour special to announce his free agency decision in the summer of 2010. LeBron James went on ESPN on July 8th to tell the basketball world he was taking his talents to south beach to join the Miami Heat. “The Decision” as it became know, brought LeBron quite a bit of hate not only from fans from Cleveland (the team he was previously on) but from fans all around the league and even some players. The main reason for this is because he was viewed as selfish and egotistical in making a one hour special just to tell people where he was going to play basketball next season. Most people see the surface of the situation but don’t take into account everything that went on outside the publics focus. Even events like this have a lot going on in the background that the sports industry should take a look at.…

    As the 2013 season began to move on, the Lakers were not doing as well as they planned to. With an injury to their all-star point guard Steve Nash in the first game of the season, the Lakers were stuck because now they didn’t have a dominant point guard. It was all up to Kobe Bryant and Dwight Howard to score. Now everyone knew how Kobe played, he would shoot an insanely amount of shots every game and even though he does make a good percentage of them, it was not enough to bring the Lakers to victory. Kobe was not passing the ball enough therefore no one else was really scoring on the team. Kobe is good but he cannot do it all.…

    I am a huge college and NBA basketball fan like millions of other Americans. I love to watch my favorite college players go to the NBA and follow their career. The NBA has allowed high school basketball players to choose if they want to go directly to the NBA or go to college since 1971. In the late 1990’s and early 2000’s it became more common for high school players like Lebron James, Kevin Garnett , and many other players choose to skip college and go directly into the NBA. Many people wanted a change in the rule, because they though the teenage players were too young, immature, emotionally and physically not ready to be in the NBA. In 2005, the NBA commissioner David Stern changed the rule and made it mandatory for US born high school players to be at least nineteen years old or one year removed from high school before entering the NBA draft. The rule basically raised the age limit to enter the NBA the rule would become known as the “one and done rule”. The rule change has had many positive and negative effects on the sport of basketball, colleges, coaches and players and become controversial.…

    Chris Webber, Jimmy King, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, and Ray Johnson manifested a transformation of style through oversized attitude and clothing. Since then, it seems to me that whoever got a chance to know these guys from the stands or sofa has been aching for a taste of that envelope that they pushed back in the early nineties. Every kid whose favorite show was Saved by the Bell and whoever seriously competed in basketball wants to be the one who pulls his shorts down past his hips when his mom told him to pull up before his game and play so well that he receives no verbal assault on the way back to the car. I'm left wondering what these five guys were really about, and why they decided to revolutionize the attitude of the game they played. After all, they seemed to plan the revolution on a whim—or even more possibly—out of habit.…

    For the past 7 years high school basketball players have had to be one year removed from high school and at least nineteen years of age if they have wanted to participate in the NBA draft. Before this time, high school basketball players had the option of leaving high school after their senior year in hopes of playing in the NBA. College was not a requirement for these athletes. This became very controversial when many players were coming to the NBA straight after high school and turning out to be “busts” for NBA teams. Many players couldn’t handle the big leap from going to the prom, to making millions of dollars and competing at a very high level. Eventually the NBA made a rule that all high school graduates had to be at least one year removed from high school and at least nineteen years of age. With this new rule, athletes started going to college for only one year before participating in the NBA draft. This is what sparked the…
