It's All-Star weekend, and you know what that means: the massive coming together of media, players, and league sources all in one place means that everyone and their mother has a new rumor to report. Yesterday, it was the resurrection of an old rumor, Kevin Garnett to the Los Angeles Clippers, that made the news, but there was another story that managed to sneak its way under the radar. During media availability, when Dwight Howard was asked about joining the Houston Rockets, he had a surprising answer.
"I like their team to be honest with you," Howard said when discussing the Rockets. "They're a great team. They're young. They play hard. They're scrappy. They play together. Everything they do has been great. It's fun to watch them." After hearing nothing but negativity all summer about the Rockets' prospects of keeping Howard if they acquired him, this story is certainly a breath of fresh air. Obviously, a lot changed when the Rockets got Harden in a red jersey, and that's worth noting with respect to all free agents, not just Howard.
