    Dwight Howard is apparently not recruiting very loudly.

    I don't understand why it took a season for him to reach those conclusions..... Same way I don't understand why it's taken Harden five seasons to see he's got to defend better.

    Even Jeremy Lamb figured that $hit out by year two...

    This article is a very loud recruitment tool, I promise by him saying he is going to give these players space, it let's them know he wants them and it lets them know they can call him if they are considering the team.

    More like Dan Fegan's mouthpiece. Morey was the one hunting the person inside the Rockets org who leaked info to Amick.

    Carmelo also has heavy interests in China. He's very popular there. He even starred in a movie, titled "Amazing", starring alongside......Dwight Howard. Of course, it was Sci - Fi and set in the future, but maybe the Chinese were on to something.

    Boo, indeed. When people do this, it comes out of restaurant workers' wages. Dwight should be ashamed!

    Yeah, no **** he got sick eating there. He picks his restaurants like he's from Orlando apparently.

    I'm sure that there's no need to worry. He probably had someone with him who took care of it. Or, he's a regular and the restaurant is happy to collect later.

    If I worked there, I'd hope that it was my table, and I had to cover for him. There's no doubt he'd take care of the bill later, and I imagine he'd also show his appreciation with a generous tip.

    Don't be so sure. A lot of basketball players are really bad tippers.

    That would be a total explosion.
