    He's finally ok as the 4th option. I'm trying to find a comparison. All of the aging C's had offensive games, even in their 3o's but he's rebounding a lot a better than them. Maybe like 02 Deke, with less size and shot blocking?

    4th team where he's unhappy with his role. When will the "champion" realize he's just not that great anymore.

    LOL at him being unhappy or "pissed" because he's in his 13th season and losing in round 1. If he didn't keep going where he can have "fun" instead of picking teams with a legit shot at winning, and if he didn't go places thinking he was the #1 or 2 option and played that Tyson Chandler role Kobe said he should, he could be on a winning team right now. Get over yourself and you can still win. What a waste of talent.

    No team on the cusp of contender status is going to take him. A legit contender isn't either. Imagine if Dwight agreed to play for the MLE. Who would sign him that he could win a title? Boston wouldn't let that attitude on their squad. Maybe Toronto could use him? But he'd pop off there too. I really don't know where Dwight goes. Bucks?

    Dwight to the Clippers somehow to replace DJ who's gone somehow? Be the final piece for their total implosion? Have his a** tormented by the crowd 4 times a year in Staples? I like it.

    I would say he is untreatable at that dollar amount, but they also didn't think anyone would give him that much money.

    Same old s**t, different season...and Howard was "crying" in his first presser about being home playing for the local team.

    He doesn't have to be in LA for that. Chipotle is a nation wide chain.

    Probably related to Jimmy Buss and a petty feud

    Knowing what we know about how dysfunctional the front office has been, I believe Dawite was telling the truth.

    can't it be both? the intra-organizational bickering and dwight howard just sort of not wanting to work on his game?
