    Sorry, I don't periscope or facespace or mybook or chatsnap or anything else. Only twitter.

    Anyways, Dwight was stuck in Houston traffic and hopes you all have a great day.

    I've been watching them.

    He's been getting on Periscope for like the past couple weeks every other day or so talking to the fans.

    Cool of him to do that.

    I was only kidding, anyway. You'd overheat trying to process everything he says. :p

    We need you in good shape to start the season!

    It rustles my jim jams to no other that he does it whilst driving.

    I guess he thinks he is too big to get hurt in a wreck.

    It's too bad a huge chunk of the NBA (fans, media) has bought the lie that Howard is a jerk.

    I wasn't against getting him here but I was worried about that back. I think should be his best season as a Rocket since we have a true PG. Those free throws though :rolleyes:

    Its an app on your phone and someone can broadcast live video from their phone to the world and other people can post messages in real time.

    Watch the video. Dwight broadcasts live during the day and you and everyone else can ask questions or make comments and he's reading them and responding.

    It is it's own thing.

    To the poster above, very strict rules on anything sexual related.

    I'm not sure if people understand how this works...the videos disappear like a day or two later. You can check out the link I posted in the OP and see the latest video. He posted one this morning before practice.

    I can't imagine they're going to let him continue this for too long, at least not inside the locker room. I'm sure they notice he's on periscope most of the time, but it's just a matter of time before the camera catches something it shouldn't.

    Nothing too crazy today, mostly Dwight talking, while getting stretched out. They do mention Qyntel Woods being "bad(ass)" and they talk about how players don't work out because of the system sometimes.

    Dwight also mentions how TA was called Bambi in orlando, in his younger days....that one time the wind was blowing really hard and it started picking up TA. :grin:

    I got a program that can download the videos off of Periscope so that they can be uploaded to Youtube.

    I did it with one video but just a few hours after I uploaded it Youtube took the audio off and said there was some kind of copyright claim. I was like wow... that quickly?

    I mean, who would have made a copyright claim? The artist of one of the songs he was playing in his car?

    If it's the one i saw, IIRC, it mentioned music, so that's what i assumed

    It's probably Daryl trying to make sure nothing gets leaked lol

    Gave a quick hello to Clutchfans today..

    He said he didn't apologize to Kobe for the elbows, but he regrets doing it and shouldn't be reacting like that.

    He also said someone told him that Coach looked like this guy lol

    Howard said his brother passed away, anyone else catch this? I was thinking maybe he didn't mean literally, but a close friend, since no one has reported it...but he said it twice. He said he'll likely miss the fan fest to attend the funeral this weekend.

    I heard him say that too but like you said there isn't any information on it.

    Yeah I thought it was bizarre. He didn't seem all that sad about it either. My guess is that he didn't really talk to him that much to begin with.
