Dwight Howard to Houston Rockets

Dwight Howard
After a dramatic couple days and an extra dramatic hour or so, Dwight Howard made his final decision; he is heading to the Houston Rockets.  After the NBA season came to a close, Howard said he was leaving the Lakers.  Teams everywhere were making Howard offers.  Eventually, he set his decision date for Friday, July 5.  Days before the fifth of July, Steve Nash and Kobe Bryant sat down with Dwight to try to talk him into staying in Los Angeles.  Remember, both of these guys had their issues with Howard over the course of the season.  Their pitch was though other teams looked more equipped to win championships in the near future, if he stayed with the team and made things work, the Lakers could get that championship ring, through hard work and determination.  Howard then said he was 50/50 on whether he would leave the Lakers or not.  Then today rolled around, decision day.  Of course, he waited until the final hours to finally make his decision.  About an hour ago, he said he was headed to Houston to play for the Rockets.  Approximately 27 minutes later, he once again said he was sure if he was leaving LA or not.  Just minutes ago, he finally made his decision; Houston.  Geez, how indecisive can you be?!?!  It was like the whole Brett Favre retirement saga went down in an hour.
