    Probably on his way out to the airport. Kid asks where to, and Howard says Houston.

    I agree. Curry's got glass ankles too, and with him and Dwight's injury problems, it's gonna look like what tmac and Yao should the unfortunate happens.

    James is may have a nagging injury here and there, but dude is built like a tank.

    The guy from the twitter account posted and said it was a mistake that D12 is in fact still in Aspen.

    I said no such thing. You on the other hand insinuated the Warriors GM is the second coming of The Great Burt Wonderstone. I asked you to expound on this and share with us how GSW would make it all work, but you shat the bed.

    Good day.

    Yes the lakers are going to pay $140m in luxury tax for 2 late first rounders

    what would the lakers do then? Amnesty Gasol to save money? There would be a revolt against the lakers and Kobe would be leading the mob.

    Not in Houston, but strange that he would put "H"ouston when he says he meant "A"spin

    Dude's dad is a PT. The lady is one of his dad's clients. She probably bumped into Dwight in Aspen. Kid had a brain fart and posted it saying he was in Houston. No big deal.

    Jarrod Rudolph retweeted an ESPN Dallas article talking about Cuban and the Mavs being quiet in the media on purpose. maybe Mavs are still in it and are just keeping quiet. maybe Howard and his camp were put off by all the details coming out of our meeting and same with LA. GS meeting has been pretty quiet too, except to mention Howard was very impressed

    The Warriors are good. Really good.

    Just ask the Gramercy Riffs.

    I insinuated you're an internet GM and he's a real NBA GM.

    The more I read about this GSW stuff, the more it makes me confident that they are NOT a legit threat.

    Point blank, they can't unload those contracts, which they have been shopping for awhile now. Dwight would have to take a HUGE haircut in the form of California's "millionaire tax", without getting the benefit of the higher raises and the optioned 5th year. Doing a straight up SnT with the Lakers DOES NOT WORK unless:

    a) Dwight wants to be at GSW
    b) GSW can unload sufficient contracts to be under the apron POST TRADE
    c) Lakers are willing to do a SnT.

    Just one of those is a major feet. Accomplishing all is next to impossible.

    I understand that things in this business can change quickly, but when someone as big as Dwight is involved, every avenue is explored beforehand. Neither the Rockets, GSW, Lakers, Dallas, or ATL had anything to present in these meeting that wasn't already known or understood.

    At the end of the day, Houston presents the clearest path to championships for Dwight. That has not changed in the last several months.

    I wish Dwight would just say where he really wants to be and stop with the attention w**** isht.

    If you want to play for the GSW and are willing to accomodate to make it happen....then just do it and get it over with, man.

    If you wanna just sign outright and play with Houston....just do it!!

    What is there to wait for?

    If he plays with Houston....excellent!

    If he doesnt....all good....blessing in diguise.

    I just wish dude would cut the crap....

    You already knew before this isht even started who you wanted to play for.

    The Diva isht is annoying and trust...if he does choose the rox....only a matter of time before the Diva shows its face, yet again.

    That's a good question. Can someone tell me what the luxury tax would be if the Lakers traded for Jefferson, Biedrins, and Bogut for 2014-2015?

    If the Luxury tax was small enough like 60 Mil, I think that the Lakers would do the deal
