It would be funny if Phil was in Dwight's ear about using leverage to boot MDA.

BREAKING NEWS: CHRIS BROUSSARD REPORTS "DWIGHT HOWARD WANTS TO LEAVE LOS ANGELES, BUT DOESN'T LIKE ANY OTHER CITIES, SO HE'S STILL DECIDING ON WHETHER HE WILL STAY, IT DEPENDS ON WHAT HE DECIDES. MY SOURCES SAY DWIGHT WILL DO WHAT DWIGHT WANTS TO DO. MY SOURCES ALSO SAY WE MIGHT FIND OUT SOME TIME AFTER JULY 1, 2013. STAY TUNED."

Regardless of Dwight staying or going... MDA's days are numbered..
He won't finish the season if Dwight goes.
To keep Dwight, it looks like he'd have to go..

Broussard: My sources tell me i'm an idiot.
Okay D12 should just come out and just say he wants Phill Jackson as his coach. It's a win win situation for Howard. If Lakers keep MDA Howard will leave and wont get blamed as much as the Lakers front office will. I think even majority of the Laker fans will blame the front office.

dont see dwight coming back if MDA stays, I think its going to come down to that. Plain & Simple.
Sure dwight can retain more money in HOU as far as taxes, but Im sure he can more than offset that with endorsements, appearances etc. in tinsel town.
im pretty sure he was vocal about MDA during the exit interviews....

Again.....its going to come down to the decision of Jim.
and
Current LA > Current Pau

I feel u..I have a soft spot for gasol as well..but hes 33..tendinitis...has lead blocks on. His expiring contract is expiring. You'd have to consider deals but jim buss will reject most offers cuz of the 2014 cap space obsession.

I hope he leaves. I want them to tank for next years draft. Good draft pick + cap space

You know there's a draft lottery and we are not likely to get a #1 pick, we will be bad, but not close to that bad.
And no guarantee that a player drafted after 10 even becomes an All-Star.

LA would be the PERFECT compliment to Both dantoni's system and D.Howards game.

Pau and Kobe for Bosh, Chalmers, Battier, Miller, and Juwan Howard.

I said good pick not #1 pick.
It is not guaranteed that Kobe will be back at the start of the season. It is not guaranteed that he will be 100% or close to it once he is back.
Even if Howard signs the team will most likely be the same as this year's but with a weaker Kobe and who knows if Nash will be able to go the whole season.
I don't want Kobe to be rushed either. He needs to take his time and once he comes back he will need that minutes cap but we all know how the Lakers played without Kobe :x
