as many last year's hey I'm starting here
as many lives there is no this is 280 sports Dwight Howard had an interesting
quote to
Comcast SportsNet in Houston CSN Houston dot com as a matter fact
and here's what he said about leaving the Los Angeles Lakers course panic
which is to my Saturday
the biggest part was leaving a storied franchise and also leaving a lot of
money on the table
but in order to win you've got to sacrifice something it would've been
great to have that stuff
the money and all that stuff but I want to win now
go you agree you agree with that completely basically I don't
to a my I initially don't object to it but if you tell me why I should object
to it
well a let me try to persuade so him saying that you have to sacrifice
something what exactly is the sacrificing he sacrificing
LA fans hating him because he didn't he he wasn't handed the keys to the car
no he said he had to be delighted white Howard number to an LA the Lakers
had the right the only team that it's on for five years
and they could offer him more money so he sacrificed an extra year
a contract and significantly more money i cost $30 million dollars I believe you
would have been more quite a lot like the real so we gave up that
there's no question a sacrifice that I think it's weird when a guy signed a
four-year
eight million dollar contract wherever was to talk about sacrifice
yeah i think is gonna be okay yet what is the sacrificing exam be given money
he gave up like the
contract and money everybody wants the you know everybody wants as long
contracts bottom understood but and have anything and maybe this is going to his
point
in the next five years who do you think is a better chance of winning an NBA
championship
the Lakers are the Rockets the rock yeah absolutely the Rockets and very when a
point guard the Chandler Parsons Jamie Lynn is a
liability I suspect also because ball over too much
turns the ball over that's not a team with Dwight Howard and and and
only russia and Jimmy hardened a doesn't need
a point guard who is a scoring point guard
and is careless with the best I think we need a point guard who hit the three out
of anything which is what James Harden certainly provide the needed distributor
they need somebody to get guys the ball I realize the hardened
that the matter is and ideally in a team like that you
you are hardened to sort of initiate the offense
often yes arm so I just think he's the right fit what they tried to trade him
instantly what I got out yes so I mean if they don't they agree with me
a checkered no I agree with them that but there's no takers in
there is a role for Jeremy Lin there but my hunch is that for that what if the
Rockets ever
say get to a conference file or when it yeah my hunch is
Jeremy Lin is either not on the team or is planned
22 minutes a game and is not planned 3837
