Going Dwight Howard - a done deal, and it can seriously change the balance of power in the NBA.
Of course we are disappointed. But, be that as it may, it is necessary to go further. So, we will build a new project, developing in a different direction. We will create a team that will be proud of our loyal fans. We thank him for his work and diligence and wish you all the best and success.
" So general manager, "the Lakers' Mitch Kapchak decided to console fans Californian club after Dwight Howard decided to leave the squad. come to pass. Not for long, by the way, Superman pulled the rubber at this time. I remember that the decision to move to Los Angeles matured in his head much longer. But apparently, if he did not have such touted as Yao Ming and Hakeem Olajuwon ... Jokes aside. "Houston" was able to get the tastiest piece of the off-season: a strong central modernity agreed to sign a multi-year maximum contract. It would seem that what is there to explain? But, as always, is much more interesting to ask some questions, the answers to which will help to provide the fullest extent of the incident and to estimate the possible consequences. So, Dwight Howard , 27 years old, center. The most powerful player in the modern NBA at his position, well protected. Lack of variety in attacking arsenal compensates monstrous anthropometry. Terrible penalty throws. Last season left crumpled: Despite the 17.1 points and 12.4 rebounds in 76 games for an average "regular" Superman looked very convincing. The Giant periodically concerned about pain in the back and shoulder injuries. Over the next four seasons, "Rockets" Howard will pay about $ 88 million. "Houston Rockets" Understandably, the management of Texans led by Daryl Morey worked great. With the transition of Howard "Rockets" is automatically transformed from an ordinary member playoffs in a very formidable force, at least by the standards of the Western Conference. And, for years to come. Judge for yourself: "Lakers" have to start restructuring, "Oklahoma City" significantly slowed down the pace of development, "San Antonio" will not be able to rely on his veterans forever. It seems that in the West there comes a time when the come to the fore young, buxom and hungry for wins, "Golden State" with "Houston" (of course, do not forget about the "Clippers", but let's talk about them another time). So Superman must substantially improve squads. For example, an attack from a position of "low-post": in this way last season ended with only 4% of combinations that bring Texans paltry 3.5 points per game. This is the worst figure in the league. Howard scored only one in the game back to 2.4 points more than the "Houston." Then - protection. In the past year, from a distance of one and a half meters rivals "Rockets" realized 61.6% of attacks: of course, one of the worst in the NBA. As the statistics, the mere presence of Dwight in the "paint" is able to reduce this figure by three to four percent. Opponents also try not to get under the ring when Howard is on the floor. season-2008/09 Superman brought in "Orlando" in the NBA finals. He was surrounded by neat snipers, and "Magic" became the second most common shots from beyond the arc. And, while Dwight was on the court - from afar scored in 39% of cases, and if he rested - only 35.7%. Let me remind you that the current "Houston" likes and can attack from a distance: the second largest number of discarded three-pointers in the league. The presence of D-12 truck drivers will certainly more comfortable situation for the cast, which can not affect the effectiveness of the team towards the increase.

Finally, there is a perception that Howard has already passed its peak de and more will only regress. Well, much doubt. But the fact that the package structure is not yet complete, more like it. According to rumors, Omer Asik can ask for direction to trade him: Turkish central is not eager to sit behind the broad back of the latter-day counterparts on the line. It was also reported that the "Rockets" lusted after an old friend Dwight - Josh Smith . But, as it turned out, he had already hit on his hands with "Detroit." theory may be that Mori and Kapchak agree on a deal under the scheme "Sign-and-trade" if suddenly "Lakers" interested in Jeremy Lin and Omer Asik , for sure immediately receive consent. Although it is highly unlikely: in the City of Angels have high hopes for a place in the "payment is" to sezonu-2014/15. Therefore genmenedzherom Texans should look for another option exchange. Moreover, you can exchange the time and Lina, and Ashiq. The same Patrick Beverley coped quite well with the duties of a playmaker in the absence of Jeremy. And at worst, you can entrust the matter to James Harden. Well, spare centering able to perform Greg Smith . But it is now that the leadership of "Houston" goes around comes around the same "poison pill", thanks to which they are lured away from Lina, "New York." Find a team that agrees to take the player (and maybe not one), whose contract more expensive at times in a year - not an easy task. "Los Angeles Lakers" There's changes are already underway. For example, Kobe Bryant has already unsubscribed from the news of Howard in the "Twitter" and posted a photo with them and Pau Gasol . But seriously - is nothing but a complete reorganization, the club can not help. "Lakers" announced that the amnesty deal Gasol will not. About Bryant, as you know, there is no question. Californians should think hard ... and get into the draft of the lottery. I understand that many insulted. Like, how can that be. But judge for yourself. On the next season is to forget now, and trampling pride, exactly wait until next summer. It was then that free agents will be LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, John Wall (if not renew the agreement with "Washington"), Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and Dirk Nowitzki . As for the lottery, the draft of the 2014 promises to be one of the strongest on the composition of the participants in the last 10 years. Hardly anyone does not like to get the prospect Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker, Marcus Smart, Julius Randle and Andrew Harrison , finally. Fans purple-and-gold strongly recommend not to mourn, and especially not to curse Dwight Howard for the decision. A club with such tradition necessarily going to make it without him. Simply, it will take time. In the meantime, he's personally helped, "Lakers" from the fabulous expenses: Ocean argue that the inhabitants of "Staples Center" were ready to offer giant already $ 118 million, however, five years of cooperation. Yes, many believe that he acted ugly or unfair . But Howard chose the option that is objectively better for him. Superman prefer youth and long-term campaign for the last ring for Bryant staffed with highly ironic composition. And perhaps this one can blame him.
