Is it weird that the primary reason I want Dwight to come here is to screw over LA and the Mavs? Great player, but personally I really hate the guy. Though, if he becomes a Rocket, I'll defend him with my life.
What's up with the random articles and tweets suggesting Houston doesn't have enough cap space? What's that about?
Yeah, not a huge fan either. if he wants to come here, Ill accept him, but he will never top my list of favorite Rockets.
I really want howard to be a rocket and id like to think I am optimistic but I just realized something. If hes coming to Houston we should know by the end of today, the longer this drags out the more likely hes going to warriors. the longer this drags out the longer the warriors have to trade and create capspace
I don't like him as a person, and as a player, his flaws are clear. But I still think he would be an incredible fit with this team. Imagining Harden/Lin pick and rolls with Dwight makes my mouth water.
Wrong go jump off of a high building in San Fran and somehow end up on a street where all the men walk around buttnaked and find Dwight Howard there and ask him to sign with Houston for the max.
• CBSSports.com: ”League sources tell CBSSports.com that Golden State has offered the likes of Andrew Bogut, Andris Biedrins and Richard Jefferson to the Hawks, Cavaliers and Jazz. … One person briefed on Golden State’s cap-clearing efforts told CBSSports.com that the team is intent on clearing room regardless of Howard’s decision. If Howard says no to Golden State, the Warriors are expected to use the room — if successful in moving contracts — to chase another max-level free agent such as Denver forward Andre Iguodala, the person said.”
^ who on the flip side would be a terrible fit with the team, even though he is seemingly a better person than Dwight. LMA likes to slow things down, work on his man, and chuck up mid range shots in the high post. Wouldn't fit very well at all with Harden.
• Yahoo! Sports: “”Holed away in Colorado, the Lakers are still prominent in Dwight Howard’s mind, sources tell Y! Rockets remain strong, Warriors lurking. … Decisions don’t come easy for Howard, nor does disappointing people. There is hope for resolution today, but no assurances.”
