Atlanta Hawks

Looking at the Atlanta Hawks, you just can’t help but shake your head. They let Josh Smith walk, which is cool. I was exhausted from writing about him, them and the rift that existed-but-didn’t-really-exist-except-it-did-exist between them. Snagging Paul Millsap was more than fine by me, too. He’s a talented forward who, with a little grooming, [...]

Long live the Dwightmare. Dwight Howard still hasn’t made a decision as to which team he will be joining next season. Yet. But he will. And it’s expected to come relatively soon, by Howard’s standards anyway. The Los Angeles Lakers, Houston Rockets, Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks and Atlanta Hawks remain his top suitors. Houston [...]

Because the Houston Rockets can never have enough superstars, right? Daryl Morey and company’s two-year long pursuit of Dwight Howard is well known and has been well documented. The Rockets want him. Badly. Even after retooling their roster with Omer Asik, who turned into a double-double machine, they want Dwight. And we’re not about to [...]

The Boston Celtics made a play for Dwight Howard. Well, not really. They made an inquiry. An obligatory one. According to Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe, general manager Danny Ainge placed a call to Howard’s reps after free agency began to gauge his interest in joining the Celtics through a sign-and-trade. He was told [...]

The Houston Rockets are hoping for the best, but planning for the worst. In this instance, that means the Rockets are crossing their fingers that Dwight Howard will sign to play alongside James Harden. If he doesn’t, they have a backup plan. And that contingency plan’s name is Josh Smith. Per Peter Vecsey formerly of [...]

Pau Gasol wants Dwight Howard to hurry up. OK, those weren’t his exact words, but he understands the value of Superman making a quick decision. Speaking with Sam Amick of USA Today, the Los Angeles Lakers big man touched upon Howard’s impending free-agent nuptials: “Obviously from the team’s standpoint, the sooner Dwight makes his decision [...]

Will Dwight Howard leave, or will he re-sign with the Lakers? So far, Howard’s expressed interest in exploring free agency, as well as interest in not playing for Los Angeles Lakers Coach Mike D’Antoni. This is foreboding similar to what happened in Orlando. Howard had a big impact on the Orlando Magic. He got them [...]

The Golden State Warriors continue to make an impression. Stephen Curry and his band of supposed misfits shocked the NBA sphere when they upset the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs and pushed the San Antonio Spurs to six games in the second. They now have our attention. And Dwight Howard’s too, [...]

Dwight Howard is in no rush. Though the Los Angeles Lakers undoubtedly hope that Howard would make a decision about his future without taking too much time, the big man reportedly has no intention of expediting the process. He’s prepared to do his due diligence and take his time. And his “due diligence” will include [...]

This just won’t go away. No matter what the numbers or sheer logic say, the Dwight Howard to Brooklyn Nets rumors just won’t subside. At all. Brooklyn was Howard’s preferred destination of choice when he was with the Orlando Magic, but when the two sides were unable to strike an accord, Dwight ended up with [...]
