To no one’s surprise, Dwight Howard isn’t happy. Superman is often found smirking and joking around, but he’s not genuinely happy. Not with the Los Angeles Lakers, specifically Mike D’Antoni. According to Dave McMenamin of ESPNLosAngeles.com, Howard’s exit interview with general manager Mitch Kupchak comprised of him expressing extreme dissatisfaction with D’Antoni and all he [...]

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 [...]

And you thought Dwight Howard was indecisive. Phil Jackson remains a sought after head coach. How could he not? He’s won 11 titles as a sideline stalker and in 20 years on the job, he’s never once coached a team to a record below .500. Teams want that type of resume in their locker room. [...]

Tony Parker feels your pain, Los Angeles. The San Antonio Spurs absolutely manhandled the depleted Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the NBA playoffs, sweeping the boys in purple and gold.

Kobe Bryant can keep tweeting during Los Angeles Lakers games. Dwight Howard said so. Following a Twitter binge during the Lakers’ loss to the San Antonio Spurs in Game 1, Bryant swore off in-game tweeting because it was becoming too much of a distraction. The media was making too big a deal about it during [...]

Steve Nash is old. He’s injured. And his Los Angeles Lakers are trailing the San Antonio Spurs 1-0 in the first round of the NBA playoffs. But he’s still happy. Despite being forced to navigate a labyrinth of adversity, Nash said that he was “thrilled” to be fighting alongside his teammates (via Sam Amick of [...]
