    Dwight, please make up your damn mind so that the rest of us don't have to wait for your shenanigans.

    Sincerely,
    Everyone

    Makes you wonder if Howard really ever cared to go to NJ. If he is willing to leave them hanging on the edge and the possibility of DWill not being there... What the hell is he doing!

    That's just stupid!

    Why would you give up all that just to have this dude for 2 months?

    EFF NO!

    If it was just Scola and Martin i'd say go for it, but Lowry, Morris and a 1st rounder for a rental????

    LOL!

    ROFL!

    I would only do a trade like that if he signed a 5 year the same day the trade went thru...

    Otherwise....HAIL NO!

    Rockets continue to be proactive in trying to acquire Dwight Howard, source tells SI. Hou-Orlando talks continued today.

    If I'm Orlando, no signed doc by 2:15pm...pack your bags. No threats just the facts. You can't take a chance on getting 0 back and if what he says is true, then there is no reason for him to not go ahead and sign.

    Of course that me be what he wants...to get traded, then walk so as to not look like the villian.

    You guys are as sensitive as DH12. If you have a chance to trade for the best big man in the game....you do it, regardless (almost) of who you have to give up.

    Well according to mannix the rockets are in hot pursuit. You people who claim you don't want him anymore because he is indecisive of where he wants to play are dumb.

    Not if your just going to rent the guy!

    No reason to give significant long term assets for him if his going to be gone in two months.

    PG Lowry
    SG Lee
    SF Parsons
    PF Patterson
    C Howard

    Championship contenders this season, no doubt. We win a chip, Dwight stays, we have a dynasty. I believe!

    After this is all done, Dwight is going to be the kind of guy that you love if he's on your team, and hate if he's playing for someone else. Seeing as I am personally an easily won over homer, I'd prefer the former.

    Personally I think Howard to Houston is inevitable at this point. NJ won't bid, GS moved its pieces already, and LA doesn't seem to be interested anymore. We will get him and we will probably get him cheap.

    All of our waiting and we are going to wind up with one championship run and then he will bolt in the offseason.

    Hard to root for a guy who just purposely tried to **** over his team but you take what you can get. Atleast we can finally suck for luck after this year.

    Yes!

    Although I would give up Martin and Scola, given that I don't believe either are in the long term plans for the Rockets.
