There will always be someone to blame......
Steve Nash and Kobe made their pitches to Howard. More than one report has said that D'Antoni was there and didnt bother to make any comments at all. Howard just wanted a coach that might consider running some plays thru the post. D'antoni is run and gun and defense is secondar. Howard would have been miserable in LA just because of the coach. You gotta realize what the Lakers did to Phil Jackson, called him late one evening, all he said is I am gonna think about it, next day D'Antoni was hired. Thats how the spoiled brat kid Buss is gonna run the lakers. You either cream in your pants at the opportunity of being part of the organization or they dont want you there.
I give Howard tons of credit for leaving 30 million on the table and playing in an organization with McHale and Akeem Olajuwan. There is pretty much no doubt that D'Antoni is not the right coach for an aging team of superstars. Maybe they will be a better team without superstars.
