    Stephen A. Smith was just on ESPN at about 12:45 and was asked about Dwight Howard. He said right now its between Houston and LA. One major reason to leave LA would be cause of Dantoni

    And because the Rockets have a better roster than L.A. And because he'd actually be competing for something meaningful next season instead of waiting til 2014.

    I like those odds but I won't believe it until Chris Broussard cites multiple sources.

    Stephen A isn't a real insider. Take whatever he says and think the opposite.

    Yay! 50/50 chance we get Dwight!

    Especially since Broussard is all Lakers, all the time.

    Well, thank goodness we have [at least] another 38 days to sit and speculate!

    Whenever I personally have a 50/50 chance, there's a 90% chance I will lose.

    No chance he leaves Orlando. Turk + Lewis is a better option then Kobe/Gasol and Harden/Parsons

    So you are saying that 90% of the time it fails half the time?

    And the lifestyle in Los Angeles is on another level than Houston.

    Stephen A was the first to confirm Lebron and Bosh would go to Miami iirc.

    ugh, if it has gotten to Stephen A. saying it is between LA and HOU, with Dantoni's tenure seemingly the crux of the matter...starting to not like our chances.

    LA just needs to swallow some pride and fire Dantoni. Maybe don't even need Phil to helm the team to convince Dwight to stay...though not sure if LA Buss wants to give Howard THAT much power over a 5 yr deal lol. Then again, they have also said Dwight is their core building block moving into the future, and they've given into Kobe before...

    How does one have precise percentages in future decisions? I feel as if he has already made up his mind one way or another.

    Howard is pretending like he is interested so he can get that free IPad Morey gives for his sale's pitch.

    I don't know, I think the Retina Display would have put Bosh over the edge.
