The hits just keep on coming for Dwight Howard and the Los Angeles Lakers. As Los Angeles continues to teeter between mediocrity and oblivion, plenty of others are taking exception to just about everything that has to do with these Lakers.

The Brooklyn Nets seem to have become the Los Angeles Lakers of the Eastern Conference. Like the Lakers, the Nets seem to be linked to every big name that appears on the market.
