    That Instagram account belongs to a guy who played Golf for Baylor and is from Houston, TX. Might be his mom?

    There's also the "don't let the door hit you on the way out" possibility. Why would LA help Dwight at all? They'll be huge players in '14 free agency. They dont need anything from GS; and they certainly wouldnt do a deal for anything less than Thompson.

    Lakers dont really have to do anything because they wouldn't have to know, not yet. Why tell them, if you don't have a secured package? All they're going to do is tell you no chance. Now, if the DH tells them, trade me and GS presents evidence they're ready to pull the trigger, then that's when LA will have to consider it.

    Details don't always leak. How many times hasn't Morey made a deal without any kind of leak prior to it? It's still only been a day since the meetings ended, so maybe there isn't anything to leak yet.

    Thats not her lol...

    Looks like the Instagram account belongs to her son. They probably just happened to be vacationing and spotted Dwight. Her son went to Baylor, so he's probably familiar with Houston recruiting Dwight.

    Divisions aren't nearly as important in the NBA. LA is about championships. Howard on a Morey led team is more dangerous than Golden State--what have they ever done?

    Even if this is a WAG it's the first truly legit threat I've seen to Houston's chances. Don't know why I didn't think of it.

    I don't think the last Bynum trade leaked and that involved a bunch of teams.

    Actually, nope. Having a bunch of end-of-the-1st-round rookies with questionable talent is likely seen as a negative, given the guaranteed contracts.

    Rockets are a bigger rival to the Lakers than the Warriors, tbh.

    I wish this didn't sound marginally reasonable.

    Comparing to early 2nds. Not compared to nothing.

    Gift Dwight to the Rockets for nothing or gift Dwight to the Warriors for picks? Yeah...

    Yeah I'm not buying this golden state thing. Even if they get rid of those two contracts that still doesn't add up to 20.5 mil. So unless d12 is taking less or they shed another contract it ain't happening.
    Now if they can shed another contract then golden state should be able to sign him outright.
