    ESPN sources say Dwight Howard is leaving L.A. because of D’Antoni’s system, Nash’s age and not wanting to be Kobe’s sidekick for 3-4 years.

    -I know fans want Dwight Howard to decide, but imagine being a player who's a free agent right now? A lot of moves are on hold as teams wait.

    -What's the big hold up? "It's hard to walk away from $30 million," said a source close to Dwight Howard. "Harder than we thought."

    UPDATE: A source has told ESPN that Dwight Howard has "changed his mind." Howard has told Lakers he's now 50-50.

    Dwight Howard has had a "change of heart" and is now 50/50 between LA and Houston. Someone shoot me...

    Not NBA earth shattering one way or the other. Never was sure whether he wanted to play basketball or be a Chippendale dancer. Jury still out on that one. He doesn't like coaching and he seldom takes the game serious enough to individually improve his skills.
