    This post is so ridiculous and ignorant, I don't even know where to begin.

    1st. You're not a GM or agent so your just blowing smoke out of your ass.

    2nd. Dwight Howard trains and workouts with Hakeem Olajuwon
    in Houston in the offseason. So it's as much a possibility he plays here in Houston just like it is any other team. No one knows except Howard and his agent. That's a fact there buddy.

    Maybe he is regretting it , It might not be a deciding factor but it's somethig I'm sure every pro athlete considers.

    We (Lakers) don't want him either. Bad attitude, 1 dimensional offence, no killer instinct. Fukc it - send him to the Cav's - we'll take Luke Walton back...

    Yeah, maybe young players with a murky future. Dwight Howard will still make roughly $20-25 million more paying California state taxes.

    Math... use it next time.

    Comparing beautiful Southern California to that fukkin sweaty armpit (houston) is actually funny.

    nice one about the nfl...........hurts so bad to be left with: Lakers, Clippers, Dodgers, Angels, Kings, Ducks, Galaxy, USC, ucla, etc. etc. Poor us.

    CP3 for Lin, that's hysterical. If CP3 does skip town, why has nobody mentioned his original preferred destination of Knicks?

    Based on how Asik played last night maybe we need to go after Josh Smith instead of Howard. BTW Clipper fans the owner would love to get Lin in LA for the huge Asian population there. LIN WILL BE DEALT FOR PAUL. The Rockets have the cap space for two superstars.

    I heard this too. The owner of the Clippers loves Lin and basically only wants to fill seats up.

    I don't mind getting Paul, never liked the signing of Lin. We had the guy on pennies on the dollar and then had to pay through the roof after his little show in NY. But Howard and his plastic self can stay in LA, perfect fit.

    This is insane. Don Sterling has never heard of Jeremy Lin and he LOVES paul I will bet you ANY amount you want and give you 3-1 and we will both escrow that you are wrong and this trade does not happen by start of next season. It will never happen of course but start of next season will be when I win the bet

    Many people in the NBA say Houston is a great NBA city. Even if that was not the case I am not going to get into a juvenile argument making fun of Houston. I have been there a few times and everyone was nice and the city seemed cool. However if you think LA is not a great place to live you have no clue. We do not have an NFL team because we do not care all that much. We have lots of other stuff going on. I can go mountain climbing or hiking within 2 miles of my house or I can go for a swim in the pacific ocean in my backyard. The weather is great the women are beautiful and the private schools are top notch. There is virtually no crime in my neighborhood and the cops dont screw with the locals. I also have neighbors from everywhere on earth who chose to live in LA and they can live anywhere in the world they want. Cities like LA, Miami, and NY have huge advantages when it comes to NBA free agents because in this salary cap world quality of life where a player lives is a huge factor.

    Not all of them. I suffered through the Smush Parker/Kwambe Brown era, so I earned the right to enjoy the Kobe/Pau/Fisher era.

    Miami needs to make the move to get Chris Paul now if it's even possible. Give LeBron a guy that'll be with him for the next 5 years. Get rid of Wade, Bosh and get Paul who will be there longterm.

    Any team that Howard plays on he makes even worse. He is one of the worst teammates anyone can ever have. He's toxic to any team and I hope he doesn't play on a young team like Houston. He'd ruin all those young players. Chris Paul is a stand up guy. I really hope he goes to a team that can win a championship. He deserves it.
