    We have been informed of Dwight's decision to not return to the Lakers. Naturally we're disappointed. However, we will now move forward in a different direction with the future of the franchise and, as always, will do our best to build the best team possible, one our great lakers fans will be proud to support. To Dwight, we thank him for his time and consideration, and for his efforts with us last season. We wish him the best of luck on the remainder of his NBA career."

    Did he say Houston or is GSW still a possibility? Still waiting for the official word that he's coming to Houston. No premature ejaculation on this one given the history of this guy.

    He said, "After consulting the wise minds of Clutchfans, I have decided to join the San Antonio Spurs as recommended by user Carl Herrera."

    Atlanta is the only other team that has not been formally told they're out, I believe.

    It was the HAWKS all along!!! How funny would that be?

    Since its Dwight Howard, I am not going to be fully convinced until the other 28 team release official statements.
