I hear ya and that makes sense but if that is the case why would Magic do it? Nets offered four #1s and Lopez or 3 Lopez and Brooks. But I guess at least Dwight would be in the West.
Magic may be more interested in clearing cap space, as the Rockets have the space to absorb.
Jonathan Feigen @Jonathan_Feigen Two frequent conversations so far in gym. Rockets are not offering all 5 kids. And no one knows who runs Rockets now famous twitter account.
can't see getting someone like DH weakening the rockets tbh, they've been mediocre for years and DH ain't gonna make things worse. people will soon forget about the tmac/7'6 failed dynasty after DH's arrival and that's why those "clutch" fans don't like it happening imo
it would a triple wet dream if Dwight turns into another injury prone Yao while in Houston
^ yeah it is a possibility but he's still worth the gambling when you could get the league's best big at the only expenses of s & picks
What I hear is 2 of the 3 rooks, Parsons, Martin and 2 picks but I have been misled by my sources before.
4 players 2 picks and Rox eat 3 bad contracts.
Without good wheels, he can't even play monkeyball. For your sake you better hope it's minor. He has no post moves whatsoever other than dunking.Except it was a minor mensicus tear and he'll be ready for training camp, B...
With the way Jones, Lamb, and White have played today, I'd rather give up White and Jones.
Hakeem Olajuwon said Friday he has been asked by the Rockets to talk to Dwight Howard about the possibility of signing long-term with them in the event they acquire Howard.
“The Rockets asked me to reach out, and I’ll talk to him (if the deal goes through),’’ Olajuwon said of Howard, who can become a free agent next summer and could arrive in Houston with no guarantee he will stay past 2012-13. “I’d like the talk to be more like real, and I’ll let him make his decisions after that
"For the Rockets, of course I could encourage him, but ultimately he has to do what’s best for his career. Of course, Houston is a great city. A lot of players settle in Houston. Wherever he goes, he’s going to be a franchise player for that team. Does he want to try to win a championship sooner (rather) than later? Then I’m sure he’s (thinking of) teaming up with superstars to get to that level. I don’t know, in that case, who he will team up with in Houston that can give him that (immediately).’’
But Olajuwon is confident the Rockets would be able to build a solid supporting cast around Howard.
“(Team owner) Les Alexander is very bold, and he’ll make a big splash,’’ Olajuwon said. “I admire him for that.’’
lol
Speaking of summer league, does anyone else think it's funny that Houston's brought in Zoran Dragic, having lost his brother?
Maybe they'll sign him and hope fans think it's a misprint when perusing the roster in search of a point guard.
So far McHale likes Zoran
We actually brought him in before Dragic signed with Phoenix. Extra incentive for him to stay.Speaking of summer league, does anyone else think it's funny that Houston's brought in Zoran Dragic, having lost his brother?

Who knows? Maybe he'll be the Marc Gasol of point guards.
I'm good either way: either Bynum or D-12 will get 20/10 playing with Nash. So right about now, I could give two s if the Lakers get D-12 or not tbh.
That being said, if Houston does this deal and give up as much as they are trying to just to possibly rent this mental midget for a year, more power to them. I'll be eating myand
when that blows up in their faces.
Truth bomb: D-12 can't stop Bynum without a double or ref help (aka Bynum foul trouble). This will continue when he receives no-look dimes from Nash.
LOL at D12 needing ref help when the refs allow Bynum to camp in the paint and travel constantly
Does Dwight locks up the #2 seed for Houston?
lol asking hakeem to court D12
I understand some of the moves we've made are laughable so far, but I don't see why this part is funny. Hakeem mentored him a year ago and Dwight has tremendous respect for the guy.lol asking hakeem to court D12
It just is. Houston is grasping for straws at this point.
K thanks for sharing
Don't be annoyed bro. It is legitimately funny if it's not your team.
I hope the Rockets do improve...but not by getting Dwight.
no it's just downright laugh out loud laughable
Dwight is not a rookie..he's heard all the sales pitches from Orlando management and that rabid Orlando fan base...nothing Houston can say to him he hasn't already heard...
ain't changing his mind just because of someone's words but if the rockets actually got him, he's going to re-sign with them next year more likely than not. 's made and he's definitely choosing $ before rings tbh
Would you take 70% FT shooting or 58% FT shooting?
