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 [...]
