Anyone watch their games to actually see what is going on with them? Looking to be blown out four of the last five games if Indiana keeps it where it is.
Yeah looking through the schedule. Looks like they've only won two games against quality opponents(Portland and LAL). If they keep this up I can definitely see DH being moved at the deadline.
Lol. There are many teams that can brag those rights. They just need to keep the sucking above the 5th pick.
If they are giong to move him it would probably be best that they also suck so in return they get solid talent for him and a high draft pick. Making the finals shouldn't be looked at as a negative but honestly they year they made the title might have gave them false hope on how to build around Dwight Howard. They never did it the right way.
Dwight Howard said in a interview "I look at guys and they don't look like they want to play. I told them at halftime, 'If you don't want to play, just stay in the locker room, because it don't make sense for a team who we should beat to just demolish us."
Exactly. I think Dwight's lectures about playing hard fall on deaf ears because he is the one that is trying to be traded. It is easy for a "leader" to preach about ignoring distractions and playing hard while ignoring the fact that his situation is entirely different from theirs. The reality is, it is easy for Howard to ignore the trade speculation and play hard because he knows that he will likely end up in a better situation, whereas all of his teammates know that their team is likely to suck after a trade. How can that not kill team chemistry?
YEa DWight is stupid if he is oblivious to the effects of cohesion and team chemistry when you demand a trade, say you did all you can and there is no where to go, basically he openly to the public said that his teammates are not good enough to win it all, he wants a new cast or a new home, takes out all trust you have between your teammates and then you expect it not to effect how they play with you. That is basic human nature, this guy, lebron the new age of wusses. Lets go Rose/Durant...
I always laugh when people use Rose and Durant as an example. Some of you act like Lebron and Dwight left after their rookie contract.
I'm crossing my fingers D12 goes to the Clippers. I would drive Griffin and Jordan to the airport....
You really would? Griffin's the only reason the Clippers even became relevant. Given that, if I was a Clipper fan, I wouldn't trade him for anything. Honestly, why should we expect stars to stay loyal to a team when moments like these show that fans really aren't loyal to their stars?
Jameer didn't play today. Didn't catch what was wrong with him, injury or maybe he's sick of the whole Dwight saga himself. I think they know Dwight is leaving.`
