Dwight Howard Confirms He Signs with Rockets

Let's hope the Lakers doesnt go TANK MODE. Bc we all know if they do, they will be guarantee the no1 pick for Andrew Wiggins.

I was really hoping that Howard would go to GSW in a trade for Barnes so he could at least come and help the Lakers be somewhat competitive. Knowing Kobe being a competitive person it's hard to imagine that he'll sit out, but Cowherd made a good point this morning that it would be wise for the Lakers to sit Kobe out for the season with him coming back from the Achilles injury.

Lol, as I said...

UPDATE: apparently, in true D12 fashion, Howard's agent told Yahoo! Sports that he has not finalized his decision.

 

Well according to what I just read the Warrior are still in play for D12 as well, they would have to do a sign and trade now though involving Bogut and either Thomspon or Barnes. I'd say Barnes would likely be in the deal since they just signed iggy.

Rockets are going to be a fun team to watch.

I'd like to see them add in Josh Smith too. Now, that'd be a fun team.

The Rockets are going to have to move Lin, Asik or both to make the D12 deal work. Anyway, with that I can't see a Harden, Parson, Howard team being any better than what it is last season if they don't bring in another guy like Smith.

No doubt about it... The Lakers will get a top 3 pick.

    • I am not sure it should be a ‘sell out to go to the SB’ season. And hope they don’t.  At the same time I was thinking you absolutely must find out if you want to pay for Bryce or not. That means putting it on him. No protecting and trying to hide weaknesses with the run game and a super conservative calls.  So I wish they would do it and find out, win or lose, 2026. No more developing. Time to do it. Let’s see once and for all. 
    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
