    I hope he mentioned Shaq. Would take Lakers off contention for Howard immediately.

    Dwight wasn't around for Showtime.

    Dwight wasn't around for Kobe/ Shaq.

    Dwight wasn't around for Kobe/Pau (well, he was on one of those losing ends)


    why would any of that history sway dwight's mind, and why wouldn't Houston's arbitrary history do the same thing?

    The Lakers must have some pretty small rooms. My bedroom could fit all the "Lakers greats" no problem.

    It's because other laker greats won't beg Dwight to stay not saying ours did but our greats who were there were simply welcoming another great coming in d12

    How dare Kobe try to make the franchise he plays for sound more attractive to the biggest free agent of the summer. :rolleyes:

    Seriously. Dwight should be concerned about the FUTURE, not the past.

    If he is......Houston is the clear choice.

    I actually love Howard's personality. He just wants to have fun and be a kid.

    I've been saying that he wants basketball to be fun again, instead of the stress filled chaotic lunacy he's been experiencing in LA. If that's what he really wants, Houston is the easy choice to make.

    He'll just have everything blamed on him again. He said last year was a nightmare, and its not going to change in the foreseable future. If he's his own man he'll be a Rocket.

    which is pretty telling because

    1) If the Lakers had part of their presentation be about the tradition and legacy of Lakers centers and great you would believe that they could have gotten a few of these greats to show

    2) knowing that the Rockets brought Hakeem and Drexler - with LA's 'one up' mentality how hard would have been to convince Magic, Worthy and Kareem to show up? Worthy works for the Lakers/TWC, Kareem may have had some beef with the team but he got his statue and Magic is Mr. Laker propaganda machine.


    Not having any Lakers greats there outside of Kobe knowing what they knew seemed pretty interesting.


    also no way shaq would have been there if anyone thinks - he is competing with dwight - it would kill Shaq if Dwight someone won more rings than him in LA
