shoulder looks fine to me

When I saw that I immediately knew that dude is making so much **** up.....SMH why is all this happening to our organization....

Didn't he have an MRI? I doubt the organization is going to lie about a torn labrum.

Overreaction, just like the other 98% of this board. They'll all get over it and realize how much of idiots they've look like in a few months when he re-signs and goes back to 100%. Then they'll start wearing Howard avatars/sigs and act like the last 4 months never happened, or try to rationalize it to themselves in a way to make them feel better about their bashing.

In any event, he certainly didn't do himself any favors. Considering his right shoulder is the one with the torn labrum. He's just a dumbass.

Destro, I agree with the overreaction part. I might have to sig that

Harden not a max player? I wonder what that says about Kobe and the 27million he's making this year.

Nothing at all actually. I highly doubt harden will be capable of doing what Kobe is doing at the same age.

That makes absolutely no sense.

[Guy986]

Not all max are created equal.

Harden's "max" is only 14 million a year.

But you comparig 23 yo harden to 34 year old Kobe does? Please!

[dockingsched]

me thinks the point is entirely lost on you pandgneverfold

[PandGneverfold]

Was there ever really a point in he first place?

[dockingsched]

that harden, at this moment, is most certainly worth his contract. not really sure why you think their age is relevant.

[PandGneverfold]

Thats your opinion and that's fine but what does that have to do with Kobe' s contract? Absolutely nothing! Comparing the two made absolutely no sense what so ever,but to each his own I guess.

[dockingsched]

it kinda does make sense to compare two sg's, whose numbers are almost identical, when the one that makes half as much is being accused of not being worth his contract.

[inquisitive]

Not all max are created equal.

Harden's "max" is only 14 million a year.

Actually, 16mil, but hey... worth every penny.

Its not an overreaction worthy, just calling it how I see it.

I want Dwight to be here as much as the next guy but I also want him to want to be here. maybe I'm wrong in that sense but I'm sure theres other people who feel the same way

[Run-MKE 311]

I really wish they would move him now, I do not see how he re-signs in the offseason. This is going to end badly with the Lakers getting nothing from this failed experiment.

[dockingsched]

may be its just building frustration and im making a mountain out of a mole hill, but why is it so hard for this guy to just say "i don't want to be traded"

Mark Medina @MedinaLakersNBA

Does Dwight Howard want to be traded: "I just want to win right now where I'm at."

if he didn't want to get traded, you'd think it would be SO easy to just say "i don't want to be traded"

[dockingsched]

this freaking guy:

Asked about his role with Lakers compared to with Magic, Dwight had one good answer and one telling one: "I have to do whatever I can to help this team win." But as Dwight continued with his answer, he also noted: "Certain guys have to sacrifice more than others."

[crazy8ights]

I want Dwight to want to be in LA just as much as the next guy, but it doesn't seem like it. He can walk Lakers reload like no other sooner rather than later we'll be back on top.

He's already said he doesn't want to be traded. Whether that's for his image or he truly wants to be here is a different story, but he's said he doesn't want to get traded and Mitch has told him as much.

[dockingsched]

where did he say he doesn't want to be traded? i missed it. if he did say it before, not sure why he couldn't answer the question today.
