Yeah he said that he didn't want to play second fiddle to Kobe for 3-4 more seasons and was not featured enough in the D'antoni system.Gil Dobie wrote:Good Luck!

Along with somebody named Kobe Bryant.Howard didn't want to play second fiddle as stated before.If it doesn't work out in Houston he will have no excuses this time.I still say if Shaq had stayed in Orlando they would have been the team of the millennium everything was in place but egos got in the way.Gil Dobie wrote:Shaq had a similar experience with Orlando, and then wen to LA and won 3 titles.dal4018 wrote:With all due respect to D12 he did play in the' 09 NBA finals at the expense of LeBron.
Howard would have had half a season to establish himself in LA with Kobe recovering from his injury. Now he will be second fiddle to Hardin in Houston.dal4018 wrote:Along with somebody named Kobe Bryant.Howard didn't want to play second fiddle as stated before.If it doesn't work out in Houston he will have no excuses this time.I still say if Shaq had stayed in Orlando they would have been the team of the millennium everything was in place but egos got in the way.Gil Dobie wrote:

He wanted to be a big fish in a small pond just like Orlando.Gil Dobie wrote:Howard would have had half a season to establish himself in LA with Kobe recovering from his injury.

There is probably some truth to that but I believe Houston is the 5th largest metropolitan area in the US.dal4018 wrote:He wanted to be a big fish in a small pond just like Orlando.Gil Dobie wrote:

Yes Houston is among the biggest but in terms of the metros but in terms of athletic reputation LA is much bigger.Orlando is no slouch in terms of size.This guy does not know what he wants.Now he had better make this work.UNI88 wrote:There is probably some truth to that but I believe Houston is the 5th largest metropolitan area in the US.dal4018 wrote:He wanted to be a big fish in a small pond just like Orlando.
It is, but there's no where near the pressure that exists in LA, Houston is a small big town. And also it's better for him with his 6 baby mamas.UNI88 wrote:There is probably some truth to that but I believe Houston is the 5th largest metropolitan area in the US.dal4018 wrote:He wanted to be a big fish in a small pond just like Orlando.
I think Orlando is in the 20's for metro size so it's relatively small in comparison.dal4018 wrote:Orlando is no slouch in terms of size.This guy does not know what he wants.Now he had better make this work.
True on the pressure. He would have gotten chewed up and spit out in cities like Boston or Philly (which is close to the same size as Houston) but Houston has a different vibe so he might be better off there.tampajag wrote:It is, but there's no where near the pressure that exists in LA, Houston is a small big town.

Dwight Howard would be a great owner of the Oakland Raiders.andy7171 wrote:Second fiddle to Kobe. Dude didn't want to try or play hard and Kobe called him out. He then pouted the rest of the season like a little girl. Good luck with that BS Houston.
