..what would you do? Would choose a young, promising team over any of the 2 star-ladened LA teams? Would you choose James Harden over Chris Paul? Would you choose strip clubs over Hollywood? I know i wouldn't. Why do you expect him to?
I know what I wouldn't want. I wouldn't want to abandon my teammates in purple & gold, switch locker rooms, and get flipped off everywhere I go in my own city. Oh, and I wouldn't like losing $30m while I'm at it. Houston doesn't sound too bad to me.
How exactly is he going to choose Chris Paul? In order for him to get there a lot of things have to happen that are out of his control. Would the Clips give up Griffin? Would the Lakers take a sign and trade with anyone? CP3 can tell management all day that they need to do whatever they can to get D12 but that doesn't mean the Lakers will cooperate.
Let me guess, you'd rather us stick it out with the young guys than sign dwight? 1) He's not choosing james over cp3, he can't play with cp3 unless they go to atlanta or something crazy happens in dallas/houston. 2) Strip clubs over hollywood, no. A big city with good weather, no state tax that happens to have a younger/better team. Yes...
No, i want us to sign Howard. He would make us champion contenders. I am just asking, look at what he has in front of him. If the Clippers could somehow keep Griffin, that would be slightly more attractive than the Rockets, imo.
postbadlee.... LAC are out of the question. The Lakers are hardly "star-ladened." There is a lot more to do in Houston than go to Strip Clubs (overrated now except St James). To add to my last point.. There is this cool invention that is about to launch soon. It's a game-changer. It's this machine that has an engine and flies and can take you to places like LA in 3 freakin hours. I.Cannot.Wait. Also, if you're not one of the poors, you can avoid flying commercial.
Every team out there trying to get him have work to do in order to do so. Including the Rockets. Last i checked, the Robinson deal was "imminent". Trading Robinson doesn't guarantee us getting Howard. Neither did letting go of Luis, who by the way, we also could have used last season.
If I was Dwight Howard, I would know I need help getting to the Clippers. If I was Dwight Howard, can I go wrong with Harden or Paul? Maybe I give the slight edge to Paul because he is already out here in LA and I like it out here. But again, I need help getting there. So I can stay with the Lakers or I can walk to Houston. If I was Dwight Howard, I would definitely choose Hollywood, no question. But I already said I can do all that Hollywood stuff later. I can live in Hollywood in the offseason if I want.
