NBA Players React to Dwight Howard-to-Lakers Trade

A tweetcap.

As you should know by now, superstar big man Dwight Howard is about to become a Los Angeles Laker, thus ending the so-called Dwightmare for the time being. Huzzah! And as millions across the world reacted to the big news Thursday night, so did a variety of NBA players, many of whom hit Twitter with their thoughts and opinions. Roll through the gallery above to see what a bunch of your favorite hoopers had to say.

(Note: The tweet in the last slide was sent out hours before the trade was reported, but perhaps Andre knew something we didn’t?)

    Lol, Jennings had to apologize. He probably got chewed out by overzealous Jordan/Bulls Dynasty fans

    I think everyone in the league now fears The Lakers . They still fear the Heat as well next season Heat / Lakers Finals , I think so.

    Paging David Stern…

    I dig Evan Turner’s tweet about Iggy. It’s sad to see the Sixers trade the second AI to the Nuggets too.

    Don’t sleep on OKC & Bos.

    No comments on Brandon Jennings’ tweet? I can’t be the only one that thinks that question is absurd.

    Paul George and Evan Turner had the best tweets

  • Ben Ireland

    Turner’s tweet about the kid becoming a man… Anyone else read Mark Titus’ book? Dude, no-one will call you the kid haha. Though I gotta say Denver got a legitimate sorta star so loved his comments about Iggy, the Nuggets could be sneaky good next year !

    why did metta say that bout mj n jworthy

  • Ldub

    People cannot forget about OKC and SA in the west. I understand the type of fire power the Lakers now have. But when is DH actually going to play coming off that back surgery? And lets not forget that Nash doesnt play defense. Offensively they “should” be tops in the L with Duhon, Meeks, Jamison being able to spread the floor as the 2nd unit. On paper it looks awesome. If everyone can mesh together, you damn near have to go with the Lakers out the west. But chemistry and health will be the biggest issues. I am excited for a potentially great season all around. Great additions to a lot of teams and great draft class.

    GO LAKERS – 76ERS SMART MOVE – CAVS GOT TO HAVE THE DUMBEST OWNER IN SPORTS. ROOKIE OF THE YEAR AT POINT, AND THE LEAGUES 2ND BEST CENTER BYNUM – COME ON MAN WERE TIRED OF DUMB MOVES

  • Chuxster

    2 words for commissioner Stern:
    “STOP THIS”

  • bigA

    So Dwight is MJ now?

  • ODOG

    Shaq was right. Shaq told us years ago. Dwight is nothing more than his clone. Orlando, superman, and the lakers. Boooo. Dont anybody fear this dude anyway. He’s big, but he’s soft. How you gonna allow yourself to be used as a prop by your competitor in the dunk contest, then lose because of that exact dunk he was part of? 100 to 1/2 odds he shows up in movies. Dude is a chump.
