I would respect almost anyone else's father saying this. But coming from a Howard, I can't respect him. He needs to tell his son to man up and man the fukk up, period. If he's gonna sit out, stand up and say it, or don't say it. His kid is always looking for attention and sympathy in the media, Im sick of that shyt. I actually defended this dude when he was in Orlando, but now he's just being a lil bytch.

I'm not gonna pile on and disrespect him and his father, but, he bought it on himself.

After that awkward--yet hilarious--interview with Stan, I couldn't feel sorry for him. He tried to pull a Lebron, Chris Bosh, D-Wade, Chris Paul & Carmelo, yet; he probably left the best situation. He had them fire the coach and GM just to get him to stay.

I do believe dude is hurt (I'm still surprised he started the season), but, I know he probably thought it was gonna be SHOWTIME, when he got to LA and it's more like bootcamp, in reality. Dude shouldn't even be thinkin' about some 3 years, from now. Like Kobe said; this ain't Orlando.

Yes, Kobe isn't the best to his teammates, but, this is his team. He didn't intimate it, he said it, plainly, at the beginning of the year. Why does Kobe have to lower his expectations because Dwight doesn't wanna rise?

Still, Dwight probably should have rested longer, but, who am I...?

I wonder how Dwight would have reacted if Kobe was caught on video saying the shyt he said about Bynum. Dude would have killed himself while Bynum used it as motivation and came back with no hard feelings.

Trade this muthafukka. Divide? I don't think anyone on the team likes him outside of maybe Earl Clark. Didn't someone dime him out to Bean on the bench when he tried to talk sideways about the Gawd? No one respects that hoe ass nikka.

Bynum was that nicca. Kobe wouldn't have had to tell bynum to play through pain cause Drew did that shyt in '10 when he had torn ligament in his knee.

He doesnt understand the concept of receiving rational thoughts from the man who created you and has more life experience :2much:

When I was in h.s. my dad confronted my baseball coach about not playing me in place of a white player after I had two straight 3-3 games. I was 16. Nowadays, if I was a pro player, he wouldn't do that, OR talk to the media. I'm grown. I handle shyt.

In fact, a Cards player got traded because his father interfered with shyt. His dad should've kept his advice to Dwight, and declined an interview. Shows bad judgement on both their parts. So much for that life experience.

Agree with most of what you said. I only take issue with the comparison to the other players. Bron, Wade, and Bosh were all free agents. CP3 and Melo didn't extend their deals like idiots. :snoop: If anything he had tried to be like them he wouldnt' be in this situation. To your other point why should Dwight stop being a broad when that's just clearly how he's built and the only reason that he's even in LA?
