Dwight Howard has a new team and catchy new nickname. "He's not Superman anymore. He's Rocket Man now," longtime Rockets broadcaster Bill Worrell said Saturday as he introduced the team's major free-agent acquisition. As Howard took the stage and greeted several Houston officials, including owner Leslie Alexander and coach Kevin McHale, a couple of his new teammates playfully repeated his new moniker -- "Rocket Man, Rocket Man" -- and were met with a huge, toothy smile from Howard. "It means a lot to me just to have a fresh start and have an opportunity to write my own story," Howard said. "I don't think people understood the fact that I got traded to L.A., and now I had a chance to really choose my own destiny, and this is the place where I chose and I'm happy about it." Source: ESPN
I was just trying to add a joke to amuse some. Then someone has to step in and be a hurtful butthole.
I imagine Howard does need a fresh start. It obviously didnt work out for him in L.A. hopefully it does in Houston
