Robinson blows and has a bad attitude. Not totally his fault since he started in Scramento, but that is neither here nor there. Hopefully we trade up high enough to get the 6'11 Giannis Adjfowntockskeofmdndnbo or however you spell his last name.

You poor saps can cross CP3 off your list.

Damn, oh well. He was just an added bonus anyways. I'll be upset if we don't get Dwight.

I don't like our chances considering somebody floated dwight and cp3 playing together and they maneuvered a top coach to the clippers. I think the clippers have to be the favorite for dwight at this point.

"Favorite" is a little strong

Thomas Robinson to Cavs for No. 19 pick. Thomas Robinson to Bulls for No. 20. Word is both of those scenarios are on table for Rockets

Rival executives, more & more, list Houston as favorite in Dwight Sweepstakes ahead of Lakers. Trading T-Rob means Rockets can offer D12 max

remember when everyone said the rockets won the kings trade? yeah, not so much, now. Pdpatt would've been awesome for the rockets against the thunder.

Garcia was huge for us in that series, though. I'd say it was a wash

How many top 5 picks go through 3 teams in the span of a year? yikes....

It might be even worse than that. Rumor is that if he is dealt to the Bulls, that he would simply be packaged with another asset and sent off as part of a bigger deal for Chicago.

That would be 4 teams in 1 season for a #5 draft pick...ouch.

Yea I heard he would be involved in a deal with LaMarcus Aldridge

Ppat isn't going to be anything special. The trade is a wash.

Randy Mcilvoy just said he's "educating" me about why trading t-rob would help to get Dwight Howard. Uhhhhj

The Dallas Mavericks may be interested also.

He'll end up in Dallas. Sorry Rockettes fans... Dallas scoreboard over you continues.

You mean the 2 rings vs 1 ring scoreboard? Is that the scoreboard you're talking about?

Dwight isn't going to the Mavs. He will entertain them, sure. But other than a Dirk who is about to retire in a couple of years, there really isn't an identity to that team. He would be a fool to turn down a chance to play with Harden and Parsons. Plus he has a chance to be coached by one of the best low block guys EVER. It's not even close IMO.

The best option is clearly Houston. However, Howard is a weird kid. He doesn't always make the best decisions. He may value being the undisputed leader of a team (DAL) over the opportunity to win a title (HOU)

If he looks at it like that, he should stay in LA (assuming Kobe retires soon).

He's an idiot. Trying to use rational thinking to figure out where he'll sign is futile.

FWIW,

quote:
This summer’s most-sought-after NBA free agent reportedly will not drag out the drama when it comes to announcing which team he’ll play for next. A source close to Dwight Howard told ESPN Los Angeles Howard will be ready to choose and announce his free agent destination on July 10.

Speculation on Howard’s destination will continue until July 10, the first day NBA free agents can officially sign or re-sign with a team.


I don't believe it, but for his sake I hope he doesn't drag this out

why would he drag it out? There's absolutely no gain in dragging it out. He'll decide by July 4th, like lebron and chris bosh did

He has a history of dragging things out i.e. his Orlando exit, and I believe Lebron decided on July 8th

FWIW, I think the Rockets would be the most logical choice for him if his goal is to get paid while having a longer window for winning open (and I'm writing as a Mavs fan). But I can't predict this knucklehead's next move.

I could totally see him picking Dallas. You are right that logic may not ultimately rule his decision. He is a head case.

I don't think there is any predicting what Howard will do. His motivations are weird.

Just heard that Dwight is in the tine looking for houses
