Those odds are on Lakers winning championship...no idea why it got turned into odds to land Dwight...except that odds to win title factor in whether or not Dwight is there.
http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2013/7/5/4495454/dwight-howard-rumors-trade-rockets-warriors-lake Because the Lakers want to free up cap space for a 2014 pursuit of LBJ, Love, and other superstars if they can't get Howard. And Howard refuses to come to the Rockets without another star so they can now spend it on another star and get more role players with the money they have. For Lin, he gets to be in the spotlight where he really shines, gets to play in DAntoni's PG-first style system with the stellar defense from Asik. It's a win win for everyone!
This thread: Clutchfan's is like that girl that sits next her crush and goes through complete neurosis trying to figure out if he's going to marry her or not, then finally melts down in frustration demanding an answer..... Dwight's the guy sitting watching the movie and goes, "wait I thought this was just a date?"
This is no date. The "date" was already over when he met with the Rockets in the meeting. This is the real thing, its time to man up and decide Dwight.
I really don't think you'd like crow, OMR. The feathers are absolute HELL to pick out from between your teeth! (trust me, I know) Still, my own feeling is that Dwight will make his announcement selecting the Rockets late afternoon, early evening today. While I won't repeat my experience eating crow, I will declare that golly, I was wrong! That's if we optimists are wrong about The Coming of Dwight. We won't be (unless we are). Red Nation! ClutchFans from around the globe! Ponder OMR's post. Listen to Doc Rocket. Listen to those of us who have experienced long years of frustration long before the championships. Think about how giddy Morey has been the last few days. Read the tea leaves and eat some coffee beans. We will be contenders this coming season, and it starts with Mister Howard... today! (sorry for the slight edit of your on-target post, OMR. my fingers can have a mind of their own. I blame it on Carl Herrera's dislocated shoulder.)
No way the Warriors can dump those 2 horrible contracts on someone. And even if he does want to sign with the Warriors at least tell everyone so we can move on with our offseason.
Its possible Lin will be relegated to a bench warmer with Nash, but this not only helps the Rockets out with the extra cap space to sign a 3rd max but Lin can now be in the spotlight. He's used to being a bench player to Beverly in the 4th quarter anyway, how much worse could it be in the Lakers?
In essence, yes but when people say that Dwight and people will bet on him "resigning" to get a big pay out is non sense. 0% chance they win a championship regardless if they get Dwight or not IMO
No. The odds for the lakers winning the title are not the same as the odds Dwight re-signs with them.
It's 1:12am in Sydney Australia...my fingers are sore from refreshing & my eyes are sore from staring at screens!!! Must have coffee...but too tired to get out of bed.
