Dwight Howard Does Not Like Deron Williams

From CBS Local...
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) - Dwight Howard doesn’t care if he’s severed his relationship with Brooklyn Nets’ star Deron Williams.
The detested Lakers’ big man’s list of enemies continues to grow — and Williams might be the next player that Howard has alienated.
“It’s my life, so if he’s upset because I made a decision for me, so be it,” Howard told the Daily News. “If he doesn’t want to be friends because I’m on another team, then so be it. There’s no need to smooth things over.”
Williams expected Howard to become a free agent after Howard demanded to be traded to the Nets.  Howard continued to pout, but failed to exercise his right to become a free agent which would have opened the door for him to join Williams in Brooklyn.
Howard says he’s moved on and is happy to be a Laker.
“I’m here now in L.A. there’s no need to talk about what could have happened. I’m happy with being here in L.A.,” Howard said in the same report. “The fans have always been great here. Now that I’m on the team the fans, from day one, they’ve just been unbelievable to me and to this team.

Gasol and Stodemire

From the Bleacher Report...
I do not own this picture. The NBA owns it all.
With the Los Angeles Lakers struggling at 3-5 and the New York Knicks sitting pretty at 6-0, allow me to welcome you to the NBA's version of Bizarro World.
The Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks, two of the most prestigious franchises in all of sports, are surprisingly on two opposite sides of the basketball spectrum to kick off the 2012 season.
Out in Los Angeles, the Lakers are still trying to grasp an identity. The front office ousted head coach Mike Brown after five games, turned down a franchise icon in Phil Jackson and ended up bringing in the offensive guru and Mr. Pringles impressionist Mike D'Antoni. As they sit under .500 through their first eight games, there certainly has some work to be done in order to retool this squad into a viable contender.
But as we head east to New York, there's a bit of a different story. Although they're not the most talented in the league, the Knicks are currently the last remaining unbeaten. They've bested some NBA powerhouses in Miami and San Antonio and look to be clicking in all the right places under the direction of Mike Woodson.
So how can the Lakers turn it back on and how can the Knicks maintain their exciting success?
Simple, swap power forwards.
