Harden will help the Rockets more than the over-publicized head case Howard will.
If you don't mind my repeating things I've said elsewhere, Harden understands the game so much better than Howard it doesn't matter at all that Howard's taller and has broader shoulders.
good for you
Howard is an egomaniacal ball hog who will damage the offense of any team he plays for.
Harden is the antithesis of a ball hog who will get the ball to any teammate who gets open.
Whether or not that teammate gets more publicity than he does.
To summarize:
Howard = selfish bleep who is quite rightly hated by his teammates.
Harden = the kind of TEAM PLAYER necessary to championship teams.
Plus, they play a "somewhat similar" system to the Lakers which Howard hated.
...Or, you could just jump on the Nuggets "bandwagon" like I just did.
We don't have egos, we just specialize in playing the best team basketball of my lifetime. If Iggy, Corey Brewer, and George Karl truly believe they're better off somewhere else, that their problem and only their problem.
I think the two of them will really be a team and play well, both are young and have a good ball iq, but Jeremy Lin was just one lucky bastard in New York and is not that talented and in fact might not be even as good as Smush Parker. The Houston will go to the playoffs and might get to the second round, but honestly if the Lakers are healthy, even they should be able to beat them in the second round and so can the Spurs, The Clippers, The Grizzlies and Oklahoma. There is a lot of talent ahead of them. They do not have enough to be taken seriously
He is a horrible, slow point guard who regularly airballs 3s on a team that needs good, fast PG and needs to nail 3s from Howard double teams.
Not sure if srs about being a slow PG. I heard he has the est coast to coast sprint than any other nBa guard
Pretty sure it is the franchises problem if they can not acquire and keep talent.
Los Angeles is a difficult place to play for an NBA player and requires players that are mentally and physically tough. If the players don't do well, they will be critiqued and put on the spot in front everyone. Dwight Howard clearly is mentally weak and wanted a smaller town with less people
Russell Westbrook begs to differ. He ran circles around Lin in that 1st round series.

Total garbage.
Remember the sign and trade chatter to the Clippers?
You don't think Howard would have played there?
He didn't want to play with Kobe. He didn't want to play for Dantoni.
He wanted to play with a team he felt could compete from day 1 and see a vision for the future.
The Lakers couldn't/ didn't offer that.
