Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin is Going to Have to Change, Not James Harden
At this stage of the offseason, there are quite a few questions about the Houston Rockets next season, despite the very promising initial outlook.

Houston Rockets – James Harden Will Thrive Next to Dwight Howard
Even as the best center in the NBA, Dwight Howard isn’t the kind of player who does well in any situation, with last season as a perfect example for the wrong scenario for him.

There’s no doubt that the arrival of Dwight Howard to the Houston Rockets is the biggest move of this offseason, but it doesn’t mean that what stood at the basis of the enthusiasm from last year’s team, which was mainly the arrival of James Harden and a bit earlier than that, Jeremy Lin, without forgetting about Omer Asik and Chandler Parsons as well, won’t be as important as it was last season.

Los Angeles Lakers – Dwight Howard Left Nothing But Hate Behind
The Los Angeles Lakers don’t know how to cope with losing but to go out and sign the best player available, but with Kobe Bryant chewing up most of the cap space and Mike D’Antoni taking nothing but shots for his defensive coaching abilities and even his once often-praised offensive system, it seems Dwight Howard rejecting their offer to stay has left a much deeper scar than anyone thought it would.

Houston Rockets – Jeremy Lin Should be Happy About Dwight Howard
With all the trade rumors at first, it seemed like adding Dwight Howard to the Houston Rockets wasn’t going to be something Jeremy Lin is too happy about.

Los Angeles Lakers – A Great Franchise But a Mediocre (At Best) Team
It seems that all those Los Angeles Lakers of past and present taking personality shots at Dwight Howard, from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant, have a hard time distinguishing between a great and successful franchise, which the Los Angeles Lakers obviously are, and a great NBA team, which at the moment, and for the last couple of seasons, the Lakers clearly aren’t.
