    The Rockets were the first topic on Pardon the Interruption on ESPN. Wilbon says he hopes the rockets get both dwill and Howard.

    lol Deron Williams is a superstar. Honestly, Id take him over chris paul. and Lowry is not even close to deron.

    Wilbon has always been an advocate of the NBA being a better league when Houston is good because of the media market and that Houston is an organization with history.

    Hasn't Williams himself said he hasn't set any locations yet and nobody knows besides himself? Not buying this rumor; not buying him playing for us either though.

    He's already aware of that, yet it doesn't seem like it was enough to keep him with the Magic (max money and no state income tax). I honestly feel he's going to do something to weasel he's way out of Orlando, and not have to go to Houston.

    What can he do? There's no way the Nets can top the Houston offer. Just not enough assets. Neither can Dallas. Unless another team comes out of nowhere with an offer to trump ours, the only way Howard can get out of it is to sign a full five-year extension in Orlando.

    You VASTLY overrate Dragic.
    D-Will is a STAR. Dragic is a competent starter.

    Williams is focused on the Nets or his hometown team in Dallas, though he is known to be open to joining the Lakers if they were able to pull off a sign-and-trade with Brooklyn. SI.com

    I've never seen you make a dwill wallpaper. I have seen you make one of dragic. Therefore, Dragic is better
