Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard Fight

Kevin Garnett, Dwight Howard, KG, Houston Rockets, Brooklyn Nets

Kevin Garnett and Dwight Howard got into each others throat last night in the Houston Rockets vs Brooklyn Nets game at Barclays Center. KG has a reputation for being intense and a trash talker, while Dwight Howard is an immature big baby and a "pussy" (according to Kevin Durant).

It all started when KG light shove Dwight, then Dwight slapped back with a girly one-hander and KG throws the ball at Dwight and talked trashed then proceeded with a headbutt. Howard walked away while KG is still fuming and pushing  Rockets Trevor Ariza. The refs reviewed the incident and gave Howard a technical foul and eject Garnett from the game.

Blake Griffin for Dwight Howard trade Rumor

Blake Griffin, Dwight Howard, LA Lakers, LA Clippers,

Interesting rumors in the Laker land, with Dwight Howard and Blake Griffin trade. ESPN reported, that the Clippers want to bring Howard to please Chris Paul.

However, a lot of people believes that Blake Griffin is untouchable in trades since he is still young and have an oppurtunity to improve, and he's also a team player. Dwight Howard is still the top center in the NBA despite his poor performance this season.

Once the Clippers and Celtics are done with their negotiations, Kevin Garnett and Doc Rivers for DeAndre Jordan and two draft picks, this will be an interesting trade.

Dwight Howard To LA Lakers

Dwight Howard, LA Lakers, Orlando Magic


The Los Angeles Lakers are finalizing a blockbuster four-team trade to acquire Dwight Howard from the Orlando Magic, according to Yahoo! Sports.

Dwight Howard will become a free agent at the end of this season. Agents with players that are involved in the deal said the teams are expected to complete the trade on a call with league officials on Friday. Orlando Magic officials had yet to inform Howard a deal had been consummated.

With the trade, the LA Lakers will send center Andrew Bynum to the Philadelphia 76ers, and will also receive shooting guard Jason Richardson from the Orlando Magic. The Sixers will send guard Andre Iguodala to the Denver Nuggets. The Magic will receive Arron Afflalo, Al Harrington, Nikola Vucevic, rookie Moe Harkless, three first-round draft picks and a 2013 second-round pick from the Nuggets (by way of Golden State). In addition to Howard, the Lakers will also receive Earl Clark and Chris Duhon from the Magic.

Lakers forward Pau Gasol's representatives said that he's not included in the deal.

Orlando, Los Angeles and Philadelphia had discussed a three-way deal, but needed a fourth team to take Iguodala and also provide Orlando with the necessary future draft picks, sources said.

Howard's contract ends after this season. He isn't expected to immediately sign an extension with the Lakers because he can get a longer deal in free agency.

Andrew Bynum and Dwight Howard deal

Andrew Bynum and Dwight Howard deal

There are rumors on Andrew Bynum and Dwight Howard deal for days but they stay as rumors. Bynum's agent, David Lee, said Thursday that his client has not told him whether he would sign a contract extension with another team besides the Lakers, a move that is widely considered a precursor to any trade involving Howard.

It seems Dwight Howard isn't the only All-Star center dealing with commitment issues these days. Andrew Bynum might soon face a decision on his future as well.
