    There was a rumor that CP3 was heading here and had it not been for the Clippers getting Rivers he was set to join Harden and Dwight.

    I think we'd already have a championship then. Chris would have set both of these guys right, especially Dwight. Shame that didn't happen if that was true. Shame for Chris too because the Clippers are the Cubs and Browns of the NBA.

    So you support a player who admits he quit on the team because he didn't get the ball in the post? TNT played Howard and Howard seems to be playing you.

    These people dont do well with facts. Howard (if he can) will play well with another team for a little while then it will go south just like every other place he's been. There are some people on this site that hate Harden so much it forces them to blindly love Dwight, lol. It's actually pretty sad.

    I think that was just another case of the Rockets being used as a tool again. Very few believe he was telling the truth when he said that.

    CP3 is a very dirty player (and most of us hate him for that), but that dirty play is just a manifestation of his overwhelming need to win. Rockets need that. CP3 would have been a great addition.

    CP3 one of the dirties players in the league yet the media LOVES him. There should be some course on this stuff. Media Navigation 101.

    Dwight has blown up every locker room he's been in and gotten 4 coaches fired

    When you've been in the league this long, the hate you get is well deserved

    He's not dirty enough to get past the second round despite being given every chance.

    Funny thing is reading general boards and such people are eating this up. Some poor team is going to get Dwight and as Ron Artest said...

    Sounds like it's always going to be the same. He still thinks he should be a focal point on offense and as long as he thinks that then this problem will always be there.

    Yup same thing over and over. This offseason has been very illuminating regarding Dwight. Every day something new comes out that points to him being a cancer and yet you still have people defending him. It really is sad. Whether he are we or successful next season I would rather not have him, Brewer and several other never don a Rockets jersey again.

    I don't have to watch the games to keep up with the Rockets,. I'm just saying there are bigger things happening in my life than the Rockets. So at this point, I won't drive to Toyota Center to sit through a 2 hours of watching a team pretend to play basketball. Seriously bro, I will not make any contribution to the 22 million Dwight will be owed if he opts in.

    I like Dwight as a person, I respect him because he chose us over a lot of good teams. I just don't enjoy watching him play basketball anymore. I don't want to put my son and I through that type of torture any more. He actually hates basketball now after watching Dwight this past year. I had previously planned to get him on the 6&under team at the Y this summer. Thanks Dwight. :rolleyes:

    Whats up clutchfans! Why so many unnecessary threads in the "Game action and roster moves" section? The best thing about the cyberex dwight thread was we were all in "it". But I think the Rockets org. was not keen to it. The only relevant topic right now is the coach search.

    It's ridiculous because he even got into an on-court argument with Steve Nash about running the pick n roll. How has he refused to accept the fact that he's just not that great in the post? Dwight said players need to put their egos aside, but it seems as if he hasn't taken his own advice.

    Go figure, SVG and Kobe were right all along. Get this guy out of here and let the healing begin for us.

    Just saw the video..wasn't as great as people made it out to be, imo...dwight basically repeated stuff he's already said and the rest is what you'd expect him to say. Charles said a lot of nothing, like always.

    Harden will be on next for his rebuttal.

    What's interesting is that Dwight has been here for 3 years and this is the first interview where I really feel I "got to know" him.

    Inside the NBA should do more of these.
