Looks like James Harden has been To the Rockets for Jeremey Lamb, Kevin Martin and future picks. Plus... this is a general NBA thread.

They have been great since that trade. Too little too late though.

I like your team especially Kyrie. Going to be real good in the next year or two

Fab Melo is in for mop up duty. Guy needs ALOTTTTT of work

I would suggest going after Howard, but I'm not sure I'd want him on my team.

Howard is a cancer at this point, I wouldn't touch him unless you have a strong head coach and organization

You kidding? Dwights problem is that he is used to being the man (and being healthy lately) IMO. I could see the Cavs being a great place for him. Kyrie and Dwight? Yes please. Dwight still got it, hes just going through a rough stretch.

**Shogun** · 02-07-2013, 08:26 PM

Kobe is much more of the problem there than Dwight

Yea, someone like Greg Popovich.

Who says Howard will ever be the same again? He got over because he's an athletic big man in a league without them. He's not skilled offensively what so ever. Once a big man has back problems they typically get worse. Worst of all he puts himself over the team repeatedly. If I was the Lakers I would trade him before the deadline because he's not staying, and they aren't going anywhere now that Gasol is out.

Kobe's only real problem is calling out Howard through the media. He got that from Phil, but he's not as smooth at pulling it off. Kobe is only interested in winning titles. I can't tell you WTF Howard is interested in and neither can he because it changes every five minutes.

Like the odd year 2 years ago when they lost to the 8 seed?

That was an aberration.

If Lebron called out teammates like Kobe does, he'd be branded as an arrogant team cancer. When Kobe does it, though, it's leadership. Although I can't say I blame him with Dwight.

I don't agree with the way Kobe did it, but it's always seemed to be the Laker way to jab through the media. If LeBron called out a teammate that is acting like Howard he wouldn't be viewed as a cancer to anyone except the people hate him regardless. Same goes for Kobe now. Seriously, do you really have bring every topic to a ****ing Kobe LeBron cock measuring contest? JFC.

He'd be viewed as a cancer to everyone because that's how the media would portray it. And yes, because there's a clear double standard that exists there.
