Dwight Howard isn’t the brightest bulb in the house.

Here’s Harrison Barnes of the Golden State Warriors modeling the team’s new alternate jersey - with sleeves! This is another questionable ambitious Adidas design, after this year’s special Christmas uniforms. The material is supposed to be 25% lighter, but the combination of t-shirt top and pinstriped shorts gives the whole ensemble a real “laundry day” look. Perhaps this new uniform is designed to appeal to 2013 free agent Dwight Howard, who loves sleeves of all kinds, and might take the court with a full Spandex cat burglar outfit under his jersey by the end of the year. Or, it will be a nice transition for undershirt-loving college kids on their way to the NBA. Patrick Ewing would have loved this jersey, and the added sweat absorption might have changed the course of his entire career.

Nick Young dunks on Dwight Howard

What’s more embarrassing - the Lakers’ 0-3 start, or Dwight Howard’s purple dumb purple arm sleeves? Trick question, the truly embarrassing sleeves will come later, once Dwight debuts his Christian Audigier-designed skull-print sleeves at the All-Star break.
Dwight played his first (preseason) game in a Lakers uniform. This is just a reminder of the impetus for what transpired in Los Angeles this summer.
Now is the appropriate time to shiver and hug yourself while rocking silently in anticipation of tomorrow’s melancholy.
Will “Kobe to Dwight for the dunk” actually become a thing?
How many games into the season will Lakers fans, of the non-Kobe-fan-boy variety, start complaining that “Kobe doesn’t pass the ball to Howard enough”?
Pau Gasol has no idea how Dwight grows those odd lumps in his arms.
Oh, by the way, it’s happening…
And there it is, Lakers fans, your 2012-13 starting five.
Will this team win a title this year or follow in the footsteps of the 2004 Lakers?
I give up.
The Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Hawks have agreed in principle to a trade that will send Joe Johnson to Brooklyn for a few spare parts and a lottery-protected draft pick. The Nets are also expected to re-sign Deron Williams soon.
What this means financially is that Dwight Howard will not be moving to Brooklyn just a week after Howard finally, publicly admitted that he wanted Orlando to trade him there.
So Dwight blew it and all because he was too scared?/confused?/hopeless? to ask for the one thing that every 21-year old kid with a trust fund in America tells his or her parents after graduation: “Thanks for the money. I want to move to Brooklyn.”
