    Isn't amazing how quiet Chris Broussard is now!

    No one knows what's going on. Woj keeps flipping his thing too, so yeah...we don't know if he's throwing out a fake scenario or a real one.

    If Dwight wants to come to the Rockets he could do so right now, until he signs everything seems to be a option.

    Hey, that's the way the game is played. If Dwight doesn't want to come to Houston, so be it. The Rockets are in great shape with or without Dwight.

    I think it would be difficult for Howard's agent to pull a trade off with GSW. They would first have to inform the Lakers that he's not coming back and wants to go to the Warriors. This big news would leak and the Rockets would/could react thus having Howard lose his leverage to force the Lakers to make a trade. Am I right thinking that would be a delicate tight-wire act?

    stop posting irrelevant tweets, warriorsworld is equivalent to clutchfans. Its a fan site. Hence why its not a verified account.

    It should not take that long for Howard to make a decision now.

    Feels like he is just holding on to us for leverage. It looks pretty obvious now bc why would he want GS if he KNOWS they would need a sign and trade. Looks bad for the Rockets.

    I have a bad feeling we're being used as leverage again.

    I think Iggy makes a big difference. Plus the Warriors are moving to a new arena in San Francisco in a few years, which is attractive. Plus the Warrior fans are rabid like no others.

    So really a two horse race between Houston and Golden State if we want to cut through the BS. Or maybe one horse race - Golden State? (Used for leverage?)
