    If howard lands here, probably some potential rookies might be traded away.

    regardless of whether an injury was a freak accident or not, if players miss big chunks of seasons due to injuries you can fairly label them injury prone. some guys just have a knack for getting injured whether it be tearing an acl untouched, landing on someones foot, or having a 350lb lineman fall on your legs.

    i swear ive had freak accidents in every sport, breaking pretty much every major bone. i would indeed call myself injury prone even though every injury was a freak accident.. someone with bum knees or a bad back is a bigger risk than someone who has a ton of freak accidents. but both are injury prone..

    Orlando is going to be asking the moon from us for a Howard deal.

    If the lakers get Howard and we get Bynum I wonder what the lakers would do if they still have gasol

    If Morey can pull that off he really is a genius.

    Yes... those are nice highlights but I'd rather have Bynum stay in L.A. and Howard come to Houston than for Howard to go to L.A. and Bynum come here... Why? The last thing we need is yet ANOTHER team combining the trio of superstars on one team, like that of OKC, and Miami.

    The ABSOLUTE last thing I would want to do as a Rockets fan is help a team in our same conference get even better!

    I'm okay with getting Bynum even though I think he's lazy granted he signs an extension and we don't give up the same assets we were going to give up to land Dwight.

    Howard will just keep us in the playoffs unless we can truly find another star next to him and some talent. Bynum will put us back into contention in 3-4 years while the talent on our roster is still growing

    Source on Dwight Howard trade: "It's all coming to a head." Translation: He's being dealt somewhere today.
