I'm pretty sure Dwight made up his mind before free agency, but his agents convinced him to hear everyone out. If he went to the Rockets without listening and appearing to consider staying then he would look worse. I don't think Doc is always right but I do believe it in this case. Harden and Parsons talk to Dwight everyday. You don't think Howard told them what he really thought?
Based on what? What do do you mean by supportive? Do you mean "least likely to turn on you?" If so, I guess that might be true due to the relative lack of passion in the city for sports, especially basketball. This BBS does not reflect the general sports fan in this city. 60% of this city can't even watch the Rockets or Astros on television yet there's been no major migration over to Comcast. If you mean supportive in terms of turning up to watch, buying memorabilia, watching him on tv, etc. we aren't even close.
Houston, Texas is in the Central Time Zone (CST) of the US. This means that Houston is -6 hours of UTC/GMT during Standard Time or 6 hours behind. However, Houston is 1 hour ahead of El Paso, which is in western Texas, and is in the Mountain Time Zone. You can find more information here: www.timetemperature.com
Right now I'm picturing Dwight outrunning Russian spies up a snowy mountain then screaming his decision at the summit.
Check your info before you throw it out the man! Unless you're looking to get a rash of @#$% See my sig for reference.
No kidding. Besides, everyone on the planet knows that we're on Central Standard Time because the state capital, where I live, is in Central Texas, and Texas being Texas, the whole damn time zone was given the moniker because of Austin. Common knowledge, people. Wake up!
Dwight's dude said he's clearing his head with some mountain air. ASPEN, COLORADO. Not everything everyone says is some gawttamn riddle.
I really feel good about this? Just the Fact that the Lakers still have Mike Dantoni as their coach gives me hope... After the media has publicly stated that he doesnt like his system, They kept him.. That shows how much they want him??? Well see
Obviously nothing about going to Dallas makes any sense at all, but there still is a chance he can end up there. I would be beyond angry if he did simply because there is nothing they can offer there that makes sense to go. However, what kind of concerns me (just me being a Houston fan you know how it is) is that there has basically been nothing said about the Dallas meeting whether good or bad. I don't have a good feeling, but then again we have all been let down too many times before that this is our natural reaction. If he chooses LA I can say okay, he cared more about being a movie star. If he chooses Dallas I will just be furious because it would be the most idiotic thing to do. Which is why I am not ruling it out, the world loves to make me mad sometimes!
I like how Broussard talking about Dallas consistently fails to mention that they still need to find a taker for Marion who won't send salary back. I don't think that's nearly as easy as moving T-Rob was.
Agreed. How has somebody not shot him and his big mouth yet. I'm 100% positive I could do his job better than him.
