The Rockets also have sign-and-trade pitches planned, sources said, with Jeremy Lin and Omer Asik sure to be offered to L.A. in exchange for Howard, which could theoretically furnish the Lakers with a point guard in Lin, who played his best basketball under D'Antoni, as well as a top defensive big man in Asik. Yet, it remains to be seen if the Lakers are willing to bend their sign-and-trade stance, since both Lin and Asik possess contracts that stretch beyond the 2013-14 season.This doesnt make sense arce1988,
Houston would covet a sign-and-trade arrangement, if it was fortunate enough to land Howard, so it could try to follow up that blockbuster acquisition by trying to sign Howard's good friend Josh Smith, whom the Rockets long have coveted.
ESPN Sources: Lakers now fear Howard may bolt!
This doesnt make sense arce1988,Lin would be a huge asset in garnering the huge Asian fanbase in LA, the West Coast and the Pacific Rim. Lin the player? It would be constant highlights of him being dunked on, his shots blocked, and his pocket being picked.
he needs lin there, Lin is howards gateway to china,
fuck the sign and trade, his a free agent, just sign there, lin is overrated but he can play, howard should ask for lin to stay or tell houston to fuck off.
Trust me Lin, Howard and Harden are awesome.
Here you are again going out of your way attempting to make Kobe look bad. Once again you have failed.
What Kobe said to Dwight was the truth. The problem is that Dwight would rather be a big fish in a small pond than just another talented player in LA. Kobe also said that if Dwight stays it needs to be his choice and not the result of someone "selling him" on being a Laker. Kobe is right again.
I think Dwight is mentally weak and a bad place for LA to invest 100 plus million dollars. Dwight is leaving town and I couldn't be happier. Most Laker fans that I know agree with me. Fuck Dwight Howard.

Actually Lin isn't a bad player at all, coaches just have to trust and have confidence in him and just let him playHe gets his pocket picked too much...from what I've seen he turns the ball over a lot.

He's cool headed (he's no AI, and his skills are not that of AI either).
If coaches don't have confidence in him, there is a reason.

He's still not that bad of a player and Dwight is in houston they all will benefitThat's all you need in a big market like this and big games---Lin turning the ball over. And then the press questioning why he is at point, then the Kobe situation, it's just bad. If Lin was better at ball handling, less turnover prone, I could see it. But he is not.
i see the Lakers being the lakers of the 90's with nick vanexle, cedric caballos, eldon cambellfixed.
ticket prices will drop
buss family will lose millions
family will sell lakers to a rich Chinese company
Warriors would be incredible. So would houston.
Number one reason would be kobe. Face it.
;)
Lol " Kobe messed it up"
I'm assuming Kobe went into the meeting and said "I'm not going to beg for you to be here, you haven't won anything. If you want to be a winner you stay, if you want to be a loser go the fuck elsewhere."
I respect that cause Howard is overrated as fuck.
Actually Kobe Belittled him , treated Howar like one of kobes Mongrel lookin daughterswell, it is true...or is this a case of "it's not what you say, it's how you say it?"
"You need to learn how it's done first, and I can teach you here," Bryant told Howard during the Lakers' presentation, witnesses in the room described to Yahoo! Sports.
"You have to learn how it's done," Bryant told Howard, witnesses described. "I know how to do it and I've learned from the best – players who have won multiple times over and over."
"Instead of trying to do things your way, just listen from me" Bryant told him.
;) :D ;D
he loves pretending to be female.
He will stay in LA. He only has to put up with Kobe for a couple more years then the team is his.

I feel like he'll end up in Houston.
jeremy lin, and james harden are just like dwight howard, actually they both suffer from DHS........dwight howard syndrome............Tren dy, soft as cotton, all 3 keep a stock of icing for their cupcakes and ketchup for their small fries.........

Dwight went to the Rockets

BREAKING: USA Today's Sam Amick is reporting Dwight Howard has agreed to join Houston Rockets.

lakers must be the dumbest fucks in sports now, remember when kobe kept saying "we dont have time for howards shoulder to heal" thats when they should of feared.they all knew from the getgo , kobe included, he was a duplicit, hypocritical asshole who didnt care about camaradery and winning. None of them is surprised. He never trult fitted in. You could tell just watching at their body language during games. You could tell howard was pretending to play well but never planned to stay.
BTW what did howard do in this years playoffs? ZILCH
Warriors would be incredible. So would houston.They re not going anywhere even if he joins houston. Dude will never grow up and be a leader. He will never materialize , improve any of his weaknesses. He likes to fuck up and restart "fresh" over and over again, getting all the attention. Let s not forget dude has 8 kids with 8 women. Houston now might have a chance to reach p/o but then what? they ll never win a chip anyway.
Thank god that fool is gone. My lakers are back
Thank god that fool is gone. My lakers are back

???are you retarded or something. Why would he leave a team that is steamrolling the whole league easily for at least 3 more years to join fubar lakers? Wishful/childish thinking.
hahaha
only back next year if they steal Lebron James from miami
lol...kobe will be lucky if he s half the player he was pre injury.
kobe said he wants to play at least 3 more years,
so that is at least 3 more years of old shitty players that will struggle to make the playoff let alone win the first round
i say Lakers will be back in 8 years if that soon
are you retarded or something. Why would he leave a team that is steamrolling the whole league easily for at least 3 more years to join fubar lakers? Wishful/childish thinking.
Even when wade retire, lebron+bosh and the rest of the team which is incredibly deep are going to stay at the top of the league.
Dumb choiceHe doesnt want to win that s why he didnt join GS. He would have been exposed again. He wants a team built around him just like good ole orlando with stan van gundy. And he s going to screw them exactly the same, repeating the same scenario again.
Iguodala signed with the Warriors, he could've joined a loaded team.

If howard goes to the rockets, he has nobody who can get him the ball, jeremy lin is a dribble and shoot only guy, harden is a scorer who is identical to jeremy lin...dribble around and shoot, in the end houston wont be what they think...........and howard after this his career is over, he proved he cant be a dominant center, and he sure wont be in the hall of fame, howard will never be in the great centers of history list who played for laker........kareem, magic, wilt chamberlain, shaqulle oneal!howard isnt a dominant center. People fled when shaq had the ball under the basket. He crushed everyone under the rim. Howard get stripped from the ball 9 times out of ten and he just raise his empty hands like a moron with a complaining stare.
He said he chose the rockets because kobe bryant was not on the Houston Roster, that was his deciding factor
