Kobe Bryant was mad when his teammates were laughing after the Lakers' blowout loss to the Clippers, and he my be even more angry once he finds out Dwight Howard is planning on laughing his way to straight to Brooklyn. This isn't just a rumor, either. A source told Stephen A. Smith that in a recent game against the Toronto Raptors, Howard told Rudy Gay “he should’ve waited to get traded [to the Raptors] because he could’ve joined him in Brooklyn next season”.

Yikes. If Howard wanted to diffuse attention, this certainly wasn't the way. He did have a chance to join the Nets a while ago, but he ended up in L.A.. Would Brooklyn take another shot at getting Superman?
