The Lakers are expected to request permission soon to speak to Dwight Howard and there's mutual interest between the eight-time All-Star and L.A. in wake of DeMarcus Cousins' torn ACL, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA@Stadium

The Dwight cancer is soon to be metastasizing.

If he can somehow keep his cancerous personality in check (he won't) then he will be a great pickup. But soon he'll be whining about touches and sowing discontent throughout.

an upgrade on Cousins/McGee and yet still a shitshow

AD/Dwight frontcourt...dat defense!

I've actually said for a few years now, Dwight can still go, he just needs the motivation (for whatever reason, but he does) and LeBron would be that perfect motivation and would get the best out of him. A year and a half ago, I was all for the Cavs trading the Nets pick for Dwight.

Maybe so.

Lakers fans can convince themselves of anything

Lebron is definitely a better fit for Dwight than Kobe and harden were. I think it can work if Dwight stays humble. Big IF though.

err why?? why not kenneth faried??

Not to say he’s washed up but fairied is a shell of his former defensive self

Dwight "I loved it when Kobe called me soft" Howard

Why, though? He's going to clog the paint and he can't shoot. He seems to be antithetical to the style of big men that Lebron prefers to play with.

Hahahahaha

Stop speaking for everyone when you assume things, I don't want that cancerous POS near this roster.

No he won’t. Kobe didn’t get along with him but was straight up with him. Lebron will be sick of him as well but will smile in his face like everything is all good and just have him traded by the deadline.
