To do that, Dwight would have to be willing to sign there as a FA. Then LA would agree to get something for him. Would he? No.
You're looking at it as separate unrelated transactions. Paul, Howard and Smith are all watching the playoffs from home now, they have plenty of time to talk to each other and figure things out. It would take a coordinated effort on their part because the Miami Plan requires the max players to take a small pay cut.

It also requires the Lakers to agree.
They know that.
So what is their incentive to comply?
ETA: Said another way . . . for Smith and Dwight and Chris to team up, the trade you described for Howard , or something like it, must happen, and the Lakers know that. They would agree to the trade if Howard would leave regardless since they'd get a good haul instead of nothing. But why would they agree to it if he wouldn't go there without their help? And who's to say they'd be the best suitor? Houston can put together a good package for Dwight, for instance. It's tangled, and not so clear cut. I'll admit, I have no faith in Atlanta's ownership, etc. either.
