    From @APMarkLong

    Full @Shaq quote on @DwightHoward leaving #Lakers for #Rockets: "The Dwight Howard thing, it was expected. We've all been in LA, and not a whole lot of people can handle being under the bright lights. Everybody wants to do it, but when you get there, there are certain pressures. I think it was a safe move for him to go to a little town like Houston. That's right, little town. I said it."

    Apparently this was said at some NASCAR event in Daytona Beach

    Shaq is kind of right.

    If Dwight wants to play on a team with a future, then Houston is the place for him to be. Much 'safer' than being in LA.

    It's too bad he couldn't bolt to a little town before 1995.

    Mine with us, we're glad to have him. Shaq just wants to make his playing career look more impressive.
