This is my favorite basketball sports. Each summer is my most happy, because the basketball game, bring me much happiness.
For most of the summer, I tried my best to ignore all of the rumors and opinions surrounding the unhappy Superman in Orlando. And no, I’m not talking about the retired NBA great center Shaquille O’neal who still lives in his Superman-like mansion Orlando, Florida, I’m talking about the Magic’s now-former center, Dwight Howard. Just like O’neal during the summer of 1996, Howard decided to give up wearing blue and black, and went with colors that champions wear. Purple and gold.
The Lakers franchise have a rich history of gold you might say with their 16 NBA championships, the second most in league history behind the Celtics who currently are nothing like the Lakers today. And hey, that’s coming from a true Celtics fan. Looking deeper into the history of the Lakers franchise we can see something else that Dwight Howard has to try to accomplish. Something bigger. Not bigger than a championship of course, but something bigger. In all of the Lakers’ NBA championships since 1949, just when the NBA was still 3 years old, the Lakers have always had a dominant big man. And now, they have another one.
