Dwight Howard

Lakers to Bring Back Dwight Howard in Free Agency

August 2, 2021 by Darius Soriano

Welcome back, Dwight Howard. That’s right, after the Lakers scooped up a former Lakers sharpshooter and another former Lakers 3-and-D wing and champion, Rob Pelinka and crew kept that vibe going by bringing back Dwight as a free agent from the 76ers: I’m not going to spend a lot of time discussing Dwight’s game as […]

Post Game Thoughts: Lakers vs. Hornets

October 28, 2019 by Darius Soriano

The Lakers beat the Hornets on Sunday night 120-101. And while the final score doesn’t necessarily reflect the the tone of the game for the first 30 minutes or so, a nearly 20 point victory over an over matched opponent is exactly what the doctor ordered and builds on what the team did on Friday […]

Lakers vs. Clippers Post Game Thoughts

October 23, 2019 by Darius Soriano

The world is not ending, I promise. Well, at least the Lakers basketball world is not. The Lakers lost a basketball game on Tuesday night to the Clippers by 10 points, 112-102. There was a lot of hype and excitement surrounding this game — opening night, LeBron and AD vs. Kawhi and the new look […]

Lakers Hang On vs. Warriors 104-98

October 15, 2019 by Darius Soriano

The Lakers flew back to Los Angeles from China on Saturday only to play a preseason basketball game on Monday. That in an of itself sounds crazy. What sounds crazier to me, though, is that the Lakers not only won the game, beating the Warriors 104-98, but did so on the back of undrafted rookie […]

D’Angelo Russell, Kobe, & Giving Fans a Moment to Remember

December 10, 2015 by Darius Soriano

Before the Lakers played the Wizards last week, I answered a few questions for Wizards’ site Truth About It in the lead up to that game. It was mostly about the young players and my feelings in the aftermath of Kobe’s retirement announcement. One question, though, was about my three favorite Kobe “moments” from his […]

Moving On From Dwight Howard

July 6, 2013 by Darius Soriano

Dwight Howard chose the Rockets. Typing that is frustrating. It induces anxiousness. But it is also not surprising. Granted, I did not think it would go this way. There were a lot of reasons why I believed what I did, but ultimately those don’t matter much right now. His decision is made and while it […]

Dwight Howard Spurns Lakers, Chooses To Sign With Rockets

July 5, 2013 by Phillip Barnett

UDATE #2: It’s official. Dwight Howard has informed the Lakers that he will not re-sign with the team and will instead play for the Rockets. Here’s a statement from GM Mitch Kupchak: “We have been informed of Dwight’s decision to not return to the Lakers. Naturally we’re disappointed. However, we will now move forward in […]

Friday Forum

July 5, 2013 by Dave Murphy

Dwight Howard sat cross-legged at the edge of the bluff, hawks circling lazily through thermal drafts, a winding river below. He was deep into his contemplative flow. A U-shaped phalanx of advisers dressed in Patagonia and Eddie Bauer outdoor wear sat nearby, ultimately attentive. Behind the first row sat a couple junior advisers whose sole […]

Wednesday Storylines

July 3, 2013 by Dave Murphy

The NBA free agency period has only been on the books since the stroke of midnight Sunday but it already seems like an eternity. The Lakers have been busy on multiple fronts, exploring ways to shore up the roster without much money to spend and also looking at ways to hang onto some of our […]

The Lakers, Dwight Howard, and the Chance to Win

July 3, 2013 by Darius Soriano

The meetings are over. Over the span of three days, Dwight Howard and his team of decision makers sat through presentations of five teams — the Rockets, Hawks, Warriors, Mavericks, and Lakers — about why he should accept their offer of large amounts of cash and various other incentives and play for their organizations. Dwight […]
