Dubs need to pick up a back-up big now Biedrens is gone and Ezeli injured. A shame to lose Landry and Jack but Green and Iggy will more than adequately cover their production. | ||

NBA stops Laker deal for Chris Paul Lakers could have been sitting on a Kobe/Howard/CP3 core. Two years later and they're still riding Kobe/Pau to the grave. Brilliant. | ||

Now you're removing Asik and just replacing him with Howard. Not sure if we can expect them to jump from 8th to even something like 4th. If they want to be a serious contender then Harden HAS to get better. They won't be a contender next year, but I think if they flesh out their bench the year after then they might be able to make a real push. Swapping Asik for Howard is what, a minor upgrade to you? People really hating on Dwight these days... Also the rockets were the youngest team in the NBA last year and they are still one of the youngest. Every single player in the team has great upside. | ||

We all know he doesn't need practice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGDBR2L5kzI He's not willing to take the responsibility of being a role player. Which ever team he goes on, he wants to be the star player. That's why teams don't want this guy (too much pride). But I agree 100% that he's still better than most people playing today. | ||

Could be completely wrong but I don't remember him coming off the bench that often, if at all. Also just realized Jim Parsons sent a video to Dwight Howard asking him to come to Houston lol + Show Spoiler + | ||

Joey D knew he had contracts coming off the books. Clearly could not trust himself with the cap space. | ||
