This is it. This is the image that so many wanted to become a reality. Dwight Howard, one of the most, if not the most dominating big man in the league who poses the greatest defensive presence across all 30 teams has joined forces with Kobe, the one play which many can compare with Jordan's legacy, as well as one the leagues eldest yet most offensively potent points guards in Steve Nash. On top of this so called Laker Big Three you have Pau Gasol, the power forward who stood tall during Kobe's 4th and 5th back to back championships back in 2009 and 2010. This fabulous four undoubtedly propels itself into the realm of contention for the Larry O'Brien trophy at the end of the season. The question that remains however is whether D12's health, Nash's health, Mike Brown's offensive system can all fall into place and click at just right time to really challenge the Thunder for Western Conference dominance and possibly even dethrone the Heat and the recently-crowned King himself. Only time will tell, and the fact of the matter is, Dwight needs to be able to do more than just build Lego to keep himself occupied while rehabbing his back.
