    Man...I really really really hope this works out. OUR city and our fans have been craving for a title...in any of the 3 major sporting markets. We shall see.

    I haven't been this excited since the Dynamic Duo - Brent Price and Kevin Willis - were brought to H-Town!!!!!

    As sad as it sounds, Howard had more playoff success.

    Last biggest splash was Howard and Paul is the antithesis of Howard in terms of leadership, not clowning around and wanting to win.

    Ain't that sad? What could have been if he only had his head right before his elite athleticism left him.

    Im still of the mindset that it didnt work due to back surgery/ knee problems and his physical decline.

    I still think howard gets way too much disrespect. He broke down, it wasnt his fault.

    People act as if "clowning around" is responsible for him losing his ability to be the best defender in the nba, overpower guys in the paint, and jump high as hell.

    Was "clowning around" what derailed derrick rose or was it an ACL tear...
