Ramona Shelburne ‏@ramonashelburne 49s

Lakers source in the meeting with Howard said he seemed to have made up his mind then. Was "emotionless" and wouldnt look them in eye


Classic. Was like things in Orlando I imagine. This guy is such a baby.

Rockets have talked to Dwight, he told them he's coming. Rockets now working on a sign and trade with Atlanta for Josh Smith. Wow. Amazing how things fell in place for Morey.

Daryl Morey ‏@dmorey 6m

While we are excited & cautiously optimistic @DwightHoward might choose Houston, we have not yet heard about his decision

So there are reports that Houston is working on deals for either Josh Smith or Rajon Rondo.

Smith would be the most realistic...and I don't think that Rondo would be a great fit with Dwight, but Houston is not likely to be done after signing Dwight.

Well, if the somehow get Rondo for Lin... they have some young prospects like Donotas to offer along with Lin.

I'd be suprised if Houston doesn't work out a deal with Atlanta..

I would be interested in some locker room issues between Rondo and Dwight. That'd be entertaining.

Yes. Hoopsworld or whatever he writes for is owned by USA Today I think. They publish stuff at USA Today all the time. Him and Alex Kennedy.

Steve Kyler is the Editor and Publisher of HOOPSWORLD covering the NBA and basketball for USA Today Sports.
