    I bet D'Antoni wanted to but couldn't due to PR reasons. You don't bench D12. It would also be conceding that Dwight is a liability at the end of games, something the Lakers org want to avoid and tiptoe around.

    It's George W. Bush's fault.

    Dwight, think about it. If you sign with Houston, the Rockets can no longer foul you, and you'd get to play on a playoff team!*





    * lol, if the playoffs started today ;)

    forget that, the more shocking thing is winning with Harden going 3 for 19!!! barely over 15% shooting!

    Played horribly (excluding bench), hack-a-howard worked a treat, but glad to have the W

    if you were mda, would you have benched howard when we started hack-a-ho?

    granted smith was unstoppable there. but it's not like howard helped much

    I LOVE that we beat the Lakers to death with the BENCH.

    Howard, Kobe, MWP... $100M Payroll and we beat them with BENCH players.

    Team ball > Kobe ball. :grin:
