    Whoa! Bucher is on ESPN right now showing Houston made love! He is downplaying the Howard to LA because Houston has the best to offer to them. Who woulda thunk it lol

    "technically" Shaq signed in LA as a free agent, but he was traded to the Miami Heat a few years later.

    Anybody else think that Bucher actually supporting Houston is a really, really bad omen?

    Yeah really weird. I haven't watched espn this much in years and wow is it terrible. Of course i haven't exactly changed the channel so jokes on me I suppose.

    But the bias and flip flopping on this network is laughable.

    What are you a Rockets fan?

    Seriously, he must have taken some heat from someone.

    What happened Ric?

    Houston had nothing Orlando was looking for, couldn't take back any bad Orlando contracts and there just wasn't a deal to be had between Orlando and Houston. What happened Ric?

    I don't think you understand what I mean...clearly you can trade for one but I'm saying superstars are always drafted take your chances in the draft versus the uncertainty of a trade

    What? The draft is FAR more uncertain than a trade. Go for the known thing.

    Yahoo! Sports says LAL-ORL talking Dwight Howard. Could be LAL-ORL-HOU 3-way, LAL sending ABynum to HOU with Rockets taking ORL contracts
