"I never wanted anybody to hate me, you know. I wanted everybody to love me, you know, like me, for sticking around and doing what they wanted me to do. And making everybody else happy. And that was a valuable lesson for me, you know."

Yardbarker.com: Former NBA Player Charles Oakley rips Dwight Howard
In a not so surprising story, former NBA player Charles Oakley rips another NBA Superstar. This time it’s current Los Angeles Center Dwight Howard. I think if Oakley played in this era he would’ve been suspended more than Ron Artest and he would’ve gotten more fines than any other player or coach. This guy is from the old school.

From Espn: Orlando Magic Dwight Howard still wants to be traded
Man this news is just coming out of left field. Dwight Howard wants to be traded? Seriously? Because these past 18 months have just been nothing but pure bliss for the Orlando Magic and Dwight. Where did this all of this trade talk come from?
Oh give me a break. Come on Rob Hennigan just pull the trigger already. You’re not going to get anything better than what you have been offered by the Rockets or Lakers. Unless you want to wait until Brook Lopez is eligible for trade but for the sake of your fans in Orlando just come out and say how you are going to deal with it because you’re not winning anyone over in the Magic Kingdom

Sources: Orlando Magic may wait on Dwight Howard trade deal
Bad idea. Why would you want a guy that clearly does not want to be in Orlando attending practices and playing in games where the fans will just boo him unmercifully. Dwight Howard, you’re distracting the coach from developing the players on the team that actually give a damn about playing.
If I were Rob Hennigan I would just think long and hard about the best trades that the Los Angeles and Houston Rockets have given and just get Dwight Howard out of Orlando. The longer you wait, the longer a distraction it will be for the team. I wouldn’t be surprised if management panics at the trade deadline and takes a deal that isn’t as sweet as the ones he was offered in these past couple of weeks.

Dwight Howard's agent says that he won't sign an extension. What? Dwight Howard changed his mind again? Really?
I think I should try to find a way to be Dwight Howard’s agent. I think that Dan Gegan of LaGardere Unlimited just spins a wheel that has these options listed:
-Say Dwight wants to go to L.A. and sign an extension
-Say Dwight wants to go to L.A. and NOT sign an extension
-Say Dwight wants to only play for the Brooklyn NETS
-Say Dwight is open to playing for teams other than the Brooklyn NETS
-Tell Dwight he is doing the right thing
I think the NBA just needs to step in and exile Dwight Howard from the league for five years. That’ll teach him.

Dwight Howard warming up to signing extension with the Los Angeles Lakers if traded
I’m not a lakers fan (I really hate them so much) but i think the team is better of just keeping Bynum. With Gasol, Bryant, and the addition of Jamison and Nash it looks like the pieces would compliment each other real well. Dwight is a defensive monster but he lacks a post game like Bynum and he doesn’t look willing to try and work on that like Bynum has been for the past two seasons.

Los Angeles Lakers making another strong push at Dwight Howard
I don’t know if it’s even worth trading for a guy that will only be there for 1 year. Does Laker management think they have a good shot at keeping Dwight Howard after 1 year if they potentially gut their team out to get him? The only players that Howard can expect to be here after this season would be Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash and is that more than enough to content with the Thunder, Mavs, Clippers, and Spurs?

Houston Rockets go after Dwight Howard in trade talks (AGAIN!)
With what the Rockets are offering for 1 year of Dwight Howard just isn’t worth it. If you’re the Magic, you would want to take this deal since it clears out all of that payroll and you literally would be blowing up the team. Too bad the people suffering in this situation are not the rich basketball players in this trade but the fans. You have the Orlando Magic fans who will have to say goodbye to the player that has made it fun to watch Magic Basketball since Shaquille O’Neal left and to the Houston Rockets for trying to cheer for a Center that most likely will only be there for a year.

Dwight Howard still wants out of the Orlando Magic after call with GM Rob Hennigan
No matter how much I want this whole Dwightmare to be over I keep posting stuff about it because it keeps getting more and more funny.
After the last couple of weeks of intense trade talks that Magic GM Rob Hennigan has made with the Brooklyn Nets, Lakers and any other team that wants this 7-foot big kid, he has the balls to call up Dwight Howard and make a pitch to get him to stay. Really? It’s like telling your girlfriend, “Yeah I want to see other people and I’m doing it right now” only to turn around after getting shot down by every girl and calling her saying “Yeah I know what I said before but I still want us to give it a chance”. I say that Hennigan should’ve been talking to him about staying even before he thought about trying to deal him.
Prepare to lose Dwight for nothing Orlando. You had good offers on the table but just couldn’t bend on any concessions.
