Howard made the decision to stay because he didn't want the Orlando fans to hate him like Cleveland hated Lebron when he left. Since when does Howard owe it to the city to stay? Anyone who takes any player switching teams personally should be ignored. It's a fukkin sport for god's sake. Just because some loser in Ohio is butthurt that you don't want to play for his favorite team anymore, doesn't mean you have an obligation to stay. He would have made a great fit in New Jersey along with Humphries, Deron, Wallace.

Nets franchise will fold now
They have no shot for anyone
It will be a glorified college teamComment -
Nets might be the new guard for how the Clippers franchise has been the last few decades. This is not the team you want to bring to Brooklyn in your new arena.Comment -
LC your right
The team is going to be a disaster
Williams did not make them better either, they are actually better without him
Any team throwing tons of money at him are nutsComment -
the nets didn't have any more talent than orlando does now. The nets are a joke with or without howard.Comment -
"Howard made the decision to stay because he didn't want the Orlando fans to hate him"
Don't believe public statements, guys.Comment -
How is he going to regret this? His team is in for a nice little post season run and he will either be traded next season and get a max contract somewhere.
Traded this year and everyone hates you. Traded next year and everyone like how you "wanted to stay"
Absolutely nothing to regret for him.Comment -
And you think Lebron wont regret his decision when he doesn't win this year, he will have nightmares from a great guy with no ring to a selfish guy with no ring lol, not hating on Lebron just think Chicago will win it this year.Comment -
Dwight Howard is a drama queen!Comment -
he didnt want to be traded to chicago since he doesnt have a no trade clause. he will just sign with whomever he wants as a free agent.Comment -
Would have liked hI'm in jerseyComment -
Theres no good teams out there to sign with, it's a good business decision .. Wheres he gonna go if he wanted a max contract? Orl gm won't trade him
Comment -
The Wallace trade was all about getting Howard.. bow they freed up money to get him laterComment -
I think with Orlando playing well helped his decision to stay also
Darren Williams could be going thereComment -
NJ will be fine. Instead of pressing for the big superstar they should sit back & settle into Brooklyn first & let the city & franchise work for itself. They are pressing. The important thing is they don't give UP their position w/ picks & cap space but it looks like they are doing that as well. If Deron walks they start all over & 2-3 yrs after they are settled in then they might be able to attract the next slew of superstars.Comment -
coming from a nets fan, they will be fine.. and also, deron cannot go to orlando, they have so much money on their payroll because otis smith isnt to smart, richardson, hedo, jameer, redick all make way to much money, and now ryan anderson, i think their 2nd best player, is obviously going to opt out after this year and get a bigger contract from someoneComment
