Not true. They are $12.3M over the salary cap right now. To offer Dwight the max they have to clear $34.3M. Clearing Bogut and Rush only clears $17.2M after cap holds. Just over half way there.
I honestly think he would sign with Warriors if he can join Barnes, Curry and Klay. But right now seems hardly possible for them. They have started with it too late.
I know they're not "technically" the same, but my point is when it comes to LA how do you change 1 without the other....
He can't do that. If houston is convinced that he won't sign and uses that cap space to sign someone else, then he won't have a fall back option if gs can't free up enough cap space to sign him.
it sounds like Dwight really wants to go to the Warriors. Lakers and Warriors are like the jock douchebags and Rockets are the nice guys. Howard on the inside really wants to be with the douchebags but as you know the douchebags don't really care for him while the Rockets are rich, dumb, and accommodating. He really needs to come to the nice guy this time. His head knows it but his heart isn't there.
Just realized this. He is treating us like one of his many baby mommas. I dont appreciate it! Morey needs to find someone without a wandering eye.
Man, I pray he chooses the Rockets. There are gonna be some George Bailey from It's a Wonderful Life level meltdowns if he goes elsewhere. Then again, there will be Bailey-esque screams of joy if he comes to Houston. The point is Jimmy Stewart people. It will be Christmas in July. Merry Christmas, Morey House!!!
If Woj says today, even though some reservations, I think he will announce today. Even Adam Schefter tweeted the other day today is the day. Now, you might think what is Adam Schefter talking about when it comes to basketball, but I am pretty sure that he broke the Derek Rose torn ACL news. Can Google it. Also supposedly Happy Walters was roommates with Adam back in Michigan or something.
You guys who think GSW have a shot are getting trolled hard by ESPN. This is the same type of nonsensical drama that was thrown about last year with Brooklyn trying to land Dwight. Pure BS manufactured to get attention.
spoken like girl desperate for commitment. It's in his right to wait until the 10th if he wanted to. It'd be great and better for his image if he decided today, but he doesn't owe anyone that.
Man im scared about the Warrior..... especially if they can pull of the trade. ..... they must have got a wink from Dwight
The most plausible theory is he hasn't said anything to any team and GS is doing proper/normal due diligence - probably as they promised dwight. That if they were chosen they would figure out a way to be in a position to give him a max deal.
