    Howard is a big ole bitch. I live in Houston and use to live in Orlando and LA. I refuse to watch this little whiny fraud. I liked Asik over him anyway.

    Strong lineup.....Howard, Harden, Parsons, and possibly Josh Smith. That's a solid front line defensively.

    You know the NBA is a joke when you have all these teams groveling to Dwight fcuking Howard. Have some self-respect. Jesus Christ.

    This is going to be a disaster for Houston. Lin and Asik may not have been impressive down the stretch but at least they shared the ball and worked as a team. Smith and Howard are selfish on and off the court. Team dynamic is now screwed.

    Howard is a beast under the basket. Jeremy lin has okay ball handling skills but hes a willing passer and so is harden. Houston just got deadly

    whats funny is people say howard couldn't coexist with kobe because he was a ball-hog. but harden is one too. attempted as many shots per game as durant, curry and lebron.

    Obviously..........considering in your opinion there is a 0.0001% chance of this happening..........it's pretty much a gift from me to you. Thank me later.

    Deal? Or...........were you just flapping them gums?

    Actually I was just assuming they will get rid of Lin and Asik. Who knows though. It's really telling when someone is selfish off the court, it really says a lot about their character and how they will end up playing. With Howard, it's all about me, me, me. Someone like that will never win a championship unless they change their attitude. Someone else said Harden didn't pass enough, I agree but it was his first year as the "main guy, or go to guy or main starter." He's going to be better next season for sure. As bad as the rest of the team was, they can only get better next season, even Lin and Asik. But not with selfish people like Howard, no matter how talented he is.

    seriously though did anyone think Howard would make up his mind this quick? You know he will drag this out and keep changing his mind.

    Fighting over paying Dwight Howard 25 million....uhhhhh what?

    Guy is about the 5th best center in the league right now as well as a huge asshole that changes teams each year (bc its clearly the other players costing this "superstar" championships, you see he just cant find a good team to play for...maybe he should sign with the Heat as a backup to Bosh) and shoots free throws like Ray Charles while laughing about it the whole time (yea 10 years of 40% game blowing free throws and its still hilarious)

    Funny how ya dont see FG kickers in the NFL laughing and smiling as the game determining FG goes wide....HAHAHA did you see that man omfg I SUCK HAHAHAHA and they still pay me 25 million HAHAHAHAHA

    Love him or hate him, make no mistake about it....Dwight is an elite center who will be even better in a situation he wants to be in (sad but true).....You could tell he was uninspired with Kobe and Mike D but I expect him to return back to his Magic form before all the Dwight-saga BS

    If he wasn't worth a shit, why would the Lakers, usually a model franchise, offer him the max and throw the kitchen sink at resigning him, including that pathetic billboard??

    Rockets are going to be awesome, watch.......perfect fit

    there nothing lakers fans can say to downplay this debacle
    they lost the top 2 centers for absolutely nothing in return
    management and their superstar kobe embarrassed themselves by begging dwight to stay

    lebron will be a free agent in a couple years
    i give lakers management and kobe a lot of credit, they are putting in their practice early
    im sure kobe is putting in the extra hours, practicing that begging position
    make sure to follow through kobe, follow through !!!!

    I am not a Dwight fan...and see his faults for what they are...but other than Kobe? who was the best player on the Lakers last year?_____________ That's what I thought. Who was the best player on the Magic while he was there?____________ That's what I thought.....now when Dwight comes back fully rested....what do you think is going to happen to the Lakers chances of getting the 8 spot next year?_____________ That's what I thought.............................LMAO
