RT @AlexKennedyNBA: Source close to Dwight Howard: "The reports are inaccurate. The Lakers haven't been informed of anything" WHY WON'T THIS END!? I won't believe he is coming until I hear him say it. I hope he comes, because I've already talked a lot of smack to my laker friends, and some to mavs fans.
Kennedy is a 21 year old wannabe reporter desperately trying to leak a big story. This is nothing. We got Dwight Howard.
It's not over until the Rockets announce it officially. The media will rush in order to try and be the first, or once a couple of media sources push it they will rush in order to appear like they aren't out of the loop. Until the Rockets announce the trade it's not done.
I am a cautious one as well, especially with Dwight, BUT: If the reports were false, I am 100% sure any if the big guys would report it - Dwight, LA, Houston, Woj - someone would stop all this madness. Yet, everyone seems to roll with it. And if the reports were false, Royce wouldn't have been traded shortly after and no reports of Asik wanting out would've come up. So as cautious as I normally am - I think this is pretty safe now...
Unless Dwight tells Kupchak that he's coming back to the Lakers the OP should be banned for starting this thread. I will feel better once Dwight announces it and signs the contract, however.... C'mon, it is Dwight, after all.
