Who said that's the deciding factor?
You were talking like it would be one of the deciding factors.
He's stated winning is the deciding factor. I chimed in stating that if he also cares about marketing and visibility that Houston wouldn't necessarily be a step down from LA
Houston has Harden and Parsons. They are young.
That's really it. Before Harden Howard said there was no chance he wanted to go to Houston.

I would add McHale in there as well.

WHO CARES!?! He's here now and that's what matters
Simplebay's post reeks of desperation. He realizes that LA is fading away and now he's trying to convince himself that Dwight will look at Houston's situation and decide to pick LA anyway.

And a point guard with more miles on his legs than Methuselah as well as a PF who's been on the trading block for the last few years

How long do you want to ignore this user?

Looks like we got a pretty good shooter in the Portland trade with Kostas Papanikolaou. Say that name three times fast. Euroleague kid with a lot of credentials currently playing in a Greek league.

not sure if he will ever see the NBA, but that highlight footage looks good

LA has Lakers across their chest, quite a few banners in the rafters and some cool statues out front of their arena.
Which means what for the present/future?

Ding ding, laker fans starting to sound like cowboys fans
Comparing the Lakers to the Cowboys is idiotic.

How so? Both have banners in the rafters, delusional fans, statutes, HOF'ers and love to live in the past
Both are the flagship team of their respective leagues as well

One has 17 banners, the other has 5.
Lakers might be down for 3-5 years if Dwight leaves, and he probably will. If he stays, they will stay at or near the top of the Western conference.
No matter what Dwight does, the Lakers will win more championships in the next decade than the Rockets.

Comparing 17 to 5 is apples to oranges. Cowboys have second most titles in nfl same as LAL does to nba. And what player is going to continue to carry this laker legacy? A 35 year old beaten and battered, coming off a potential career altering injury kobe Bryant? And lmao at that last statement. Unless LAL pulls in Lebron next year they aren't hoisting the O'Brien anytime soon

Kind of like how they were this year right?

And by that, of course, you mean at or near the 7th seed
I'm no lakers fan, but if you think they are going anywhere you are delusional.
10 NBA championships since 1980
16 NBA finals since 1980
Have at least 1 trip to the NBA finals every decade and average more than 4 trips to the finals every decade since 1950.

The old standard used to be 1000 games. 1000 games and a player's athleticism tails off and they become ineffective.
Kobe is at 1459 games not including playoffs. Incredible, yes. But how effective will he continue to be after recovering from a torn AT? I don't want to tie my wagon to Kobe+Nash+DAntoni if I am Howard.

When you compare apples to apples the cowboys are the lakers. Period

Not sure if you followed the Yanks in the 80's though mid 90's but that's semi accurate
Yeah, they are both tearing it up in 2013, aren't they?
