I think he will stay in LA, but I'd leave if I was him, tbh, unless Phil Jackson returns to coach the Lakers, which is doubtful..

He's in a no-win situation with the Lakers..Kobe's going to eventually return as an inferior player looking to stat-pad career numbers..they don't have any future assets or lottery picks..they are going to be even worse next year, tbh..

Houston makes a lot of sense IMO..

Christian NBA Athlete Dwight Howard Has Multiple Children Out-of-Wedlock (http://allchristiannews.com/christian-nba-athlete-dwight-howard-has-multiple-children-out-of-wedlock/)
By maria in Christian News · February 19, 2013 · 4 comments
NBA Star Dwight Howard said he wants to use his NBA career to raise the name of God within the league and throughout the world.


NBA Star Dwight Howard told the media that he wants to use his NBA career to raise the name of God within the league and throughout the world; however, the 27-year-old athlete’s actions are contradictory of his words.

In 2007, the star impregnated an Orlando Magics dancer named Royce Reed. In an attempt to keep the child’s birth a secret, Howard acquired a court order restricting Reed from mentioning his name in the media. Unfortunately for Howard, Reed violated the terms of their agreement, and starred on VH1′s “Basketball Wives” and mentioned him on social media platforms. The athlete won a defamation judgement against Reed and initially sought $550,500,000, per the former lovers’ paternity agreement that stipulated a $500 fine for each time Reed mentioned Howard in public.

Today, reports claim Howard has an additional four children by four different women since the birth of he and Reed’s son in 2007. As with Reed, most of the children and their mothers are kept a secret. Reed took to her Twitter page yesterday to post a picture of her son and two of her son’s alleged siblings. Although Howard makes significant contributions to philanthropy and is active in the youth programs at his church in Atlanta, he is struggling to abstain from fornication.

http://allchristiannews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/NBA-Star-Dwight-Howard-has-multiple-children-out-of-wedlock..png

These allegations of Howard’s additional children surface just a day after R&B singer/adult toy line owner Kandi Burruss was slammed for recording a gospel song with Marvin Sapp. Unlike Howard, the singer is transparent about her life and admits to her faults, but many Christians still believe Burruss is being hypocritical because of her business endeavors with adult toys and adult talk shows.

Chick used to say that Jerry West and Magic were not suited to the head coaching position because of their impatience and demand for perfection. Kobe has those same qualities to overcome, but I think he is a much more patient person with his teammates and you can see it on the sidelines.

I think when D'Antoni steps down during next season, Kobe would be a perfect fit. The F O won't have to pay another coach's salary. Kobe will not be able to play the minutes he's used to. But most importantly, he knows this game better than anyone his age and he exceeds many older than he.

People will disagree. Let the discussions begin.

Im like Dwight's FT % on him returning ... 50-50

1. He stays and accepts that he is a #2 (doesnt have to be Achiles as the #1) and can not win a title as the alpha. I would hope he stays and takes a slightly less deal like Lebron to help build a contender ...

2. If he wants complete max to stay with no regard for building a title (which is his right he got 5 kids and the baby mamas to support) and wont take a smaller deal to win like Lebron ...Then I say let him walk. Let the two lessor TeXAS TEAMS fight over him and pay him max money. (BTW the Lakers can still sign & trade him (Read that somewhere) but because we are over the cap the options are limited. IF Morey wants him THAT bad squeeze Robinson, a draft pick and Asik. They still wont win a title and though he will help dat shitty defense offensively that is a bad fit. Congesting the lane when Harden's best weapon is the drive and flop game makes little sense. Dwight is a good screener but also picks up cheap fouls on it as well. He also sucks at FT and the low post so I dont think it's an ideal match ...Dallas makes more sense because just like with Tyson Dirk is great at what Dwight is not and he is teh best stretch 4 the league has ever seen. Mavs make more sense especially if they could get a PG. (But if Dwight was smort he would try to get to the Warriors Steph Curry would be an even better fit for him with his shooting).

3. Though a bit concerned I will not fret over Dwight's saga this summer. Let him enjoy the attention and the drama. If he is our best player next year we still aint winning shit even if PJ and achilles come back.

Team would suffer in the short-term but would probably be better off with A clean house and Achilles taking the full year to recover. IF Dwight walks you trade Pau, convine Kobe to sit and pray for Nash to get healthy. You give D'antoni one year (if PJ won't come back) with a run n gun team and then you come back stronger in 2014.

Not suggesting we tank, but no need to spend crazzy $ on a team with no shot. We went all in this year I would accept the ownership being frugal for ONE season ...

The Lakers CAN sign and trade Howard next season -- they just can't actually receive players in return for him as they are currently constructed. They could get draft picks, cash and/or the rights to overseas players for him, though. The problem is with there being no advantage for the the player to do an S&T under the new CBA, it's not likely that a team would give the Lakers anything when they'd need the full cap space to sign Howard in either scenario.

There are, however, scenarios where it would be possible for the Lakers to get something back. If the team receiving Howard had to move players to make it happen, then they could do a three-way trade with another team to free up space. This could involve the Lakers taking back a player using their tiny trade exception. Also (and much more likely), if the Lakers amnesty Bryant or Gasol, they'd have enough room to do an S&T for Howard, although they may not necessarily be able to receive the full amount of Howard's salary in return.

Guessing what Dwight Howard will do is not an exact science after the year he had in Orlando last year. I think it would be bad for him and the Lakers if he resigns with LA though. He is never going to live up to the expectations of Laker fans, who are title or bust at this point. I don't ever see him being the best player on a title team. I'm beginning to have doubts he will be the second best player on a title team. I realize NBA owners give out max contracts like they come out of a pez dispenser at this point, but he does not strike me as a max guy anymore. I'd be too worried about his health and his inevitable downfall once his athleticism fades.

Houston is probably the best destination for him at this point. They desperately need inside scoring, and I think Harden is a better first option for Dwight than Kobe was. Kobe is ruthless, and he was never going to take it easy on Dwight's fragile psyche. Dwight needs to be coddled. That is not going to happen in LA.

BTW, We beat Dallas in our season series, beat them the last game head2head that mattered (this season) and finished ahead of them.

We also beat your team sans Achilles in a game to decide the higher seed.

So if the Lakers amnesty Gasol (or trade him away without taking back any money), they will actually be able to receive a good deal of salary in return for Howard. They'd have about $15 or so Million under the apron, meaning they could try to trade Howard to Atlanta for Al Horford or Josh Smith if they wanted to. If the Lakers amnesty Bryant, or clear both Gasol and Metta World Peace from the books, they could take back a max deal. Los Angeles has options, but they'll have to accept that they're not a contender next year to fully take advantage of them.

If they wanted Asik and Robinson, they could get them, and the Rockets may be inclined to move them if they can get another free agent lined up. I mentioned before that Josh Smith could be a target for them, and they'd have the room to bring both him and Howard and still be under the tax. Lin's deal is just horrible, though.

I agree in general. I also don't think Asik is a good target for the Lakers. I was just saying that getting Howard would probably trigger moving Asik, and the Lakers could have the salary flexibility to take him and Robinson back if they wanted to.

Kevin Love would be interesting, but I don't think he'd work with Harden and Howard. I'd like him just fine with the current Houston team, though.

:lol wait, they're the lessor team because they lost the last game? Yeah the Lakers have more talent, but are the shittier TEAM.

We finished 7th, you 8th ...
You could not beat us in a game that mattered without our leading scorer ... or starting PG.

Look what is the big deal?
we both suck ... both staring at a sweep ..
IF it make you feel better, Rox are not the lessor team to the LAkers want a cookie?
Apaprently you just choked in that last game ... my bad.

Me too. If they don't get Dwight, I'd be good with an Asik/Love frontcourt. The rebounding :wow

Our sweep won't cost $100 million. So I'm guessing the Lakers must be worse than the Magic since they lost to them too right?

Has there been any player in their prime that left a huge amount of guaranteed money on the table? Dwight will stay.

True, enough. Doesnt cost me a dime and doesnt have any effect on this argument.
Again, if this matters to you I concede ...
A random game against the Magic versus a game to decide playoff positioning are apples to oranges but again ... if it makes you feel better ... the Rockets ARE BETTER than the Lakers.

But part of the reason we are at $100 mill is due to the player you want so badly ... I hope you get him (if he doesnt stay) ... so I can see if I am right or wrong about his fit with Harden ...

Lakers want to sign Collins now; they are looking for a center who can score with men

Offense was not their issue. Its limiting the bleeding caused by penetrating quick studs like Ty Lawson, Westbrook, Tony Parker etc. With Gasol most likely gone, they could use another big man willing to bang inside and hustle. I'm not sure Collins fits the bill, he looks like a finesse player with limited moves.
