http://sulia.com/channel/la-lakers/f/15 ... ce=twitterThe joke making the rounds within the Lakers' organization after Dwight Howard's departure is that he didn't just head to Houston for promises to play more in the post, escape Kobe Bryant's demands, avoid state income tax and savor a smaller town again.
There were two wholly unreported elements working in critical tandem during the process:
Dwight's baby mamas. And California's sky-high child-support rates.
Howard was never going to make more money by staying, even with that fifth guaranteed year the Lakers were offering!
The fact that the Lakers can laugh – even if the humor is rude – about Howard's departure is a reflection of the relief that many inside the club feel...

Bottle rat groupie gold diggers can't profit without dumb arse athletes like Dwight.
No wonder his back hurts. He carries a mattress and all that child support on his back.

Not sure if this is a joke actually. I was thinking Howard was a fool not to join the Warriors instead if he wants to win and now it makes sense. Warriors are still in California............

It's a little low-rent but I don't see it as mean spirited...
And I'm sure it's not like this was the hot topic that the entire Lakers Org spent the weekend talking about. It was probably two fools from the mail-room.
