That's pretty impressive. Any official timetable for his return?

That means Howard is actually willing to run the Pick and Roll overthere, nice =)...they should have a fun team.

I've never understood Howard's aversion to the PnR. It's so simple and effective--what does he have against running it?

It implies that someone else might get the shot.

That's a crowded paint area for a team that's going to need drives from Harden/Parsons/Lin to be successful.

It is somewhat of a narcissistic thing. He thinks his strengths and skills are to play inside and be dominant from in there. Running the PnR technically takes away from his inside game he values so much...Statistics have shown though that he is one of the best PnR big men in the league. For the Lakers he refused to run the PnR, flat out not doing it. Problem is inside, he only has about 2 moves. They should be beastly that team though.

I am expecting a big season from Klay Thompson. I think he will surpass expectations.

Basically what MH said. I pegged the Lakers would struggle for an offensive identity with Howard + Pau on the court at the same time but never did I imagine the guy refusing to run his best set of plays.

I think Curry and Klay are going to break or come close to breaking the 3pt record. With Iggy being a prime ball handler they are going to get so many great looks.

Good luck defending Dirk at PF, I see raining 3-pointers. And on Offense he will get crushed by Dalembert and Wright.

I guess my question is what torch is there to pass? This seems like both dumb journalism and general dumbness by Durant. It's a subjective list in a sports magazine that's quickly losing relevancy, and there's nothing for Wade to "step aside" in. Wade trying to be his best has zero impact on Harden. It's not like we're talking 2016 Olympic spots.

I think it's a roundabout way of saying that Wade was one of the best, but he's been passed up by Harden. Wade has the overall career that trumps Harden significantly right now, but Harden can be argued to have passed him up in present value.

the idea of Dwight being crushed by Dalembert and Wright is hilarious

Anyone have a source on Dwight refusing to run the PnR? I heard it too but now that I think about it I don't remember the original source of those claims.
