Me thinks Dwight needs a couple of rings, very bad. I also think he figured the Lakers are done for over the next few years. He could always go back in a few years, but, right now he has got to prove himself!

D-Wight has always been about unconditional love.
Will he get it in Houston? We'll see.
I remember when he was the star in Orlando and made a bone-head play.
It wouldn't even be remarked upon.
In LA Land every miscue was pored over in the press for days.
the rocket incumbent center wants out now that DH is on board.
rockets said something to the effect of 'hold yer frickin' horses'...

Larry Bird still has it
Pacers swingman Paul George recently talked to SLAM magazine about his time in Indiana, which includes
some interaction with Bird, the Pacers’ president of basketball operations. George talked about Bird helping
him when he was struggling in the 2012 playoffs against Miami, saying Bird has always been in his “corner”
throughout his career.
Then George offered an anecdote. Let’s just say that, while Bird is impressive in the front office, he’s not
a stranger to reinforcing just how good of a player he was, too.
“He picked a ball up that had rolled over,” George said of Bird showing up at a practice. “He rolled up his
sleeves and made about 15 in a row and just walked out like nothing just happened. It was the craziest thing
I’ve seen.”
SLAM asked George how he and the rest of the team reacted.
“We were speechless,” George said. “We didn’t know whether to keep shooting or just to end practice.
It was sweet, man.”
