    Have you heard of "!!!"(chk chk chk)? If not, they make great music.


    ... And I'm currently in the process of learning all the dance moves of the lead singer.

    REALLY!!! No way! ;)

    Don't be a Debbie Downer. We are getting DWIGHT HOWARD and don't forget that Yao lived a dream. Born in China. No NBA player ever came from China. Got drafted first pick in the draft and then by his sophomore season, was outplaying Shaq head to head. This is a dream, not some sap story. Every athlete has an end to a career and his was winning a game with a broken bone. He's a GD hero, then rides off into the sunset.

    I agree. Sounds like "see, fans, we did all we could!"

    Kobe's tweets are meant to put pressure on Dwight, just like the billboards. Kobe wants Dwight to know that if Dwight leaves, Kobe fans are going to be unhappy with Dwight.

    It's silly stuff. But Dwight is a people pleaser. So, you never know what will work on him.

    If I were Dwight, I would be upset with the Laker tactics. Don't put up billboards, I would think, get me the coaches I want.

    If I was the Warriors idk if I would would give up Thompson. Maybe Barnes, but Thompson looked like a top 5 sg during the playoffs.

    Surprise! We are going to be worse next year than we were this year! Imagine it now... 5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. Howard gets off the shot!!!!! AND. IT'S. IN. ..... The Lakers lose once again, but the Wizards have won their 1st in a row. It's the second loss of the season to the Wizards, but good news is coming to a tv near you.

    .............The Wizards are in the other conference so we're not really worried about head-to-head tie breakers with them!

    Because he's 100 times better than any front-court player they have. Curry n Aldridge would be a nice combo.
