Dwight eliminates Atlanta, will be signing with Houston

[nitte]

By the way I think he should have forced his way into GSW. I think he made a bad choice but whatever.

@ChrisMannixSI: Fegan tells SI that Dwight hopes to make a final decision by "tonight or tomorrow morning."And the Beat goes on. YUCK@ChrisMannixSI: Fegan tells SI that Dwight hopes to make a final decision by "tonight or tomorrow morning."And the Beat goes on. YUCK

A part of me says Dwightmare is not over yet. In 1-2 years we will hear Howard wanting a trade out of Houston. Lol.

Geez - I thought it was over.At least I won't be eating any crow!! Lol.

Howard is playing Ferry and the rest of the teams interested. He knew he was signing with Houston since day one. Ferry needs to move on and start adding players to this roster.

Danny please don't listen to these "fans" who don't understand how good Asik is defensively and on the glass and how he's a huge upgrade to Josh Smith.

Asik is a great asset a young 27 year old elite rebounding and defending big man only making 8 mil a year. I dunno if the fans are just emotional right now or are just ignorant about him.

Don't worry, I'm SURE DF doesn't buy into the YAYPOINTS/ZOMGDUNKS philosophy. He'll lead us to the promised land yet!

My only gripe is, if he intended on signing with Houston all this time, why did he feel the need to prolong the inevitable?

If you really have to ask this, then you haven't paid attention to the attention whore the last few years.

I have no idea why folks dont like Asik next to Al. Seems like the feeling is only sign superstars to multi year deals, and fill the team with 1 year contracts until we stumble into a superstar.

[Q45T]

Oh well, time to move on.

Very similar to what Lebron did. It was obvious that he was going to Miami but he just wanted to lead people on in dramatic fashion.

Oh I know. It was a rhetorical question.

He is only an upgrade for rebounding and being a true center. Everything else, Smoove is much better. Smoove never gets outproduced in his career. Asik has been outproduced every year. This is like us trading Smoove for Hawksquawk legends Samuel Dalembert, Emeka Okafor, and Chris Kaman. We would be taking a step forward in terms of fit with Horford and taking fours steps back in terms of talent. I hope we can get Asik and flip in him a three team deal. We get a 1st round 2014 for Asik and send him to Cleveland or Orlando or where ever they can give us a 2014 1st round pick.

What does "Asik has been outproduced every year" mean?

Not following...

[Plainview1981]

So cut off our nose to spite our face then? That usually works out well...

The Hawks should just pull down their pants and take it and keep make OTHER teams better.

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

SOOOOO, does anybody want to make a Dan Gilbert type promise and say that "I guarantee that the Cleveland Cavaliers Atlanta Hawks will win a championship before LeBron James Dwight Howard does!!!!"

[Plainview1981]

Who cares about Asik and his laughable 10PPG.
