July 5, 201313 yr At this point the Lakers would be stupid to not do a sign and trade. That would also make the Rockets pretty nasty with a combo of Harden, Parsons, Josh Smith, and Dwight. Be stupid to do it. Not getting enough in return unless they get all 2014, 15 and 16 picks from them along with an expiring contract after this season.
July 5, 201313 yr Is it 30M extra he can earn in LA...I think his pay qualifies for a 13% tax penalty in California. Does that offset no income taxes in Texas? No taxes in Texas
July 5, 201313 yr Be stupid to do it. Not getting enough in return unless they get all 2014, 15 and 16 picks from them along with an expiring contract after this season. You'd rather he leave and they get nothing??

July 5, 201313 yr You'd rather he leave and they get nothing?? Depends on what they get. I outlined what I'd go for.
July 5, 201313 yr Even with the Lakers being able to pay him more , according to a CPA, he would net about $2.6M more over 4 years playing in TX. Thanks, that's what I thought but wasn't for sure.

July 5, 201313 yr Author Rob Perez @World_Wide_Wob Dwight Howard's tenure with the Lakers can be best compared to the friend you let crash at your place, after the bar, and he pees the bed.
