Ruckus Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Now that's messed up. But by no means surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted July 1, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 If he resigns with the Lakers after last season and with their roster and coach, he will deserve everything he gets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APE Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) But....But...but Stern hates the Lakers. They would have had Chris Paul! Edited July 1, 2013 by APE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainview1981 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 There is a chance this whole thing was for show for Dwight to further inflate his ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHawks89 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Only reason Dwight is meeting up with ATL is to avoid his hometown hate when he comes back in town. Just my opinion... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonegully Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 If he does not sign here, ATLANTA should hate him. Has a chance to take the franchise to the next level and have local kids actually root for the Hawks and he disses us? He should be booed everytime he comes back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WraithSentinel Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Do you think Howard is embarrass being from Georgia? Has he ever given back to the community here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hawksfan Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 He knows he's giving up a lot in potential endorsements leaving the LA market. That'll always be the case, whether it be a tv show or something else stemming from the massive los angeles exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be booed everytime he comes backI guess he should but this is the atlanta we are talking about. A place where stars are cheered for regardless of the uniform they have on.

"That's allowed" Oh Time Warner. That would be like "Turner"? Turner with all of their programming in....Atlanta? Is their an agreement in place with Tyler Perry? How many studios in the metro area? Movie Studios, recording studios, tele and advertising studios. BET films here. Outside of LA and NY Atlanta is the entertainment destination. That is what the talking heads won't say.

Outside of LA and NY Atlanta is the entertainment destination. That is what the talking heads won't say. It's the same Time Warner that gave the Mets a network deal. The Turner/Atlanta connection hasn't been relevant since the 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
