    Yeah...like last year when he said he didn't wanna be traded to Houston via "sources close to..." and...oh, wait....

    But seriously....a team coached by one of the greatest big's all time...and you're worried about being featured???

    That's gotta be the dumbest.....

    (but he didn't say that....)

    The fact that that is even a thought is just stupid. Media made up or his actual beliefs.

    He's the best center in the league....why would ANYONE think he wouldn't be a focal point?

    If he opens his eyes and recognizes the best place to be....I will be glad to root for dude in the red and yellow.

    Man, I just picture Broussard as the Scott Templeton of the ESPN office. Whatever it takes to stay employed.

    Waiting on Woj.

    This is some amazing reporting right here.

    I'm a salary cap dunce and understood this. He should have said this at first. "Hearing GSW wants Dwight but the cap is not there, maybe they make a move tonight to clear up the cap to make a real run at him. Otherwise it's between HOU/LA/ATL/DAL"

    Instead we get. "Dwight will also meet with GSW."

    You realize that Mark Marsden was a current coach with the LA development team? He basically just got promoted. He's a nobody as a coach (was a former Lakers role player) and his salary is meaningless. Also, apparently Alvin Gentry chose the Clippers asst job over the Lakers asst job. Why? Bc Rivers will be around for a long time, and Dantoni might not be. And apparently the Lakers were really cheap on compensation. So this doesn't really impact anything cyberx said. There's been no real hires on Dantoni's staff. He's only lost assistants; he hasn't had one of his normal guys join yet. Lakers are clearly at least keeping open the possibility of dumping Dantoni. Not that they will; but they haven't closed that door completely.

    Broussard just said dwight is seriously considering dallas. They have the capspace advantage and the better coach.

    How big of threat is Dallas? I would hate it if Dallas got Howard. I would personally rather him stay in la than end up in dallas
