It was reported yesterday by Chris Broussard of ESPN, that Howard is very unlikely to resign with the Lakers and will wind up playing elsewhere.

NBA: Guess Who Dwight Howard Says Will Choose What Team He Plays For
Am I the only person who is sick and tired of Dwight Howard. I used to really be a fan of this dude, but over the past few years he has proven himself to be full of sh*t. He loves to talk about things going on in his mind as far as how he was feeling when he was in Orlando, and also in LA, but then he tries to blame the media for being the ones who make big deals out of things. Maybe if you didn’t talk so much Dwight there wouldn’t be much to speak of. Now that he is once again a free agent, guess who he thinks will pick where he winds up playing.

NBA:(Video) Trouble In LA…Rockets Have Real Chance To Get Dwight Howard
Things are starting to look real bad in Los Angeles for their basketball teams. Earlier we reported that Chris Paul, who is a free agent, is very upset with the organization and is considering leaving the Clippers all together. Now the other team in LA has a realistic chance of losing all-star center Dwight Howard to a team in their own conference. Reports are surfacing that the Houston Rockets have a real chance to steal him away. They are already exploring options of freeing up some salary cap space by trading away Thomas Robinson, who was the #5 pick in last years draft. James Harden is also playing a big role, as he and Dwight have become very cool and Dwight sees Houston as a real title contender if he joins the team they already have in place. The Lakers can pay Howard more than anyone else, but Texas does not have state sales tax, which closes the gap of actual money he would get from LA compared to Houston. Sounds like bad news for basketball fans in LA. Check the video after the jump.
