Are you kidding? Most fans would welcome him with open arms.
Well you better welcome him soon after his arrival in Orlando because there is a good chance he spends most of the season on the sidelines using crutches.

Cannot believe it has been sooo long.
I still remember that day Shaq left.

Dwight Howard stood outside a Dodger Stadium suite Tuesday night trying to decide what to eat off the dessert cart.
He took forever, and when he began to recite out loud, "eeny, meeny, miny, moe,"' I asked him if that was how he was going to pick where he played.
He mimicked as if he would, saying "this team and that team," but unfortunately stopping when his attention returned to the desserts.
Then his security guard got in my face and told me he does the talking for Howard. That will be fun if he comes to L.A.
A fan yelled to Howard, "Are you coming to L.A.?"
And Howard replied with the consent of his security guard, "I'm here now." He paused, and then added, "to rehab."
I asked about his back, which he had surgically repaired, and he said he will be fine for the start of the season, but he said he could not talk about basketball.
What else would you want to talk to Howard about?
A few minutes later the Dodgers showed Howard on the big screen in left field eating his dessert. He drew considerable applause, and I wonder what the reaction would be if they showed Andrew Bynum on the big screen.
The word around the Lakers earlier in the day was the team might know by Wednesday whether there is any reason to pursue Howard.
There was no meeting with Howard, as has been reported elsewhere, but they have been talking to the Orlando Magic steadily about Howard's availability.
The Lakers, though, now believe Orlando has no interest in Bynum, which has forced the Lakers' brass to look for a third team to place Bynum and secure what the Magic might take.
As for Howard, he settled on a huge caramel apple with M&Ms attached, and then also wanted a piece of lemon cake.
He does seem to want it all.
The Knicks were still deliberating their decision in recent days, and there was no better sign of that fact than one of the team-to-team discussions they engaged in over the weekend. New York, according to sources, was considering matching the offer for Lin while also finding a handshake agreement with another team that they could, if they so desired, trade him before the February trade deadline as part of a contingency plan. In those discussions, the Knicks -- whose acquisition of Raymond Felton was the most obvious sign that Lin was on his way out -- had targeted specific point guards with whom they could swap Lin as a way to maintain depth at the position behind Felton and the recently-signed Jason Kidd.

Would be hilarious if the Laker deal went down today, Howard doesn't wanna follow Shaq but gets traded to the Lakers on the same day Shaq joined the Lakers. lol

Steve Nash films fans giving him beer. Howard's handlers freak out when fans try to take pics of him in LA hat.
This guy isn't even living his own life.
