LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are down 0-2 vs. the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals. The series is not over yet, but many are already counting the Lakers out.
Dwight Howard, who has been on a recruiting spree these playoffs, invited LeBron James to play in Taiwan if the Purple and Gold are eliminated from the postseason in the Western Conference Finals.
“LeGM, LeBron. Lakers if y’all lose LeBron, y’all better get LeBring your butt over here to the Taiwan.”
Dwight Howard and LeBron James were teammates during the 2019-20 NBA season when the Los Angeles Lakers lifted the Larry O’Brien trophy. If the two players become teammates in Taiwan, Dwight urged James to shoot their popular McDonald’s commercial again.
“King we can remake this commercial here in Taiwan though.”
Although the Lakers have an uphill battle to climb against the Denver Nuggets, LeBron James is not someone who’d give up easily.
So Howard may have to keep on waiting forever to fulfill his dream of playing alongside the King in Taiwan.
Dwight Howard Recruited Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, And James Harden To Taiwan
Dwight Howard joined the Taoyuan Leopards after not receiving any offers from NBA teams prior to the start of the 2022-23 season.
Since then, Howard has been trolled by many for joining a team in Taiwan. But Howard has had peace with it and is now clapping back at superstars in the NBA. He recently sarcastically recruited the likes of Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Klay Thompson to Taiwan after their teams were eliminated from the playoffs.
“Jordan Poole, come on. Julius Randle, come on. Ben Simmons, come on, man. Nobody beating nobody. Klay, you can slide down here too, my boy. Deandre Ayton, you and CP3, come on. KD, come on, KD. They talking ’bout him coming back to Houston, but I think this might be a better look, James Harden, come on down too, boy.”
Dwight is currently unstoppable with sending out invites to major NBA stars. As of now, no player has responded to Howard, but the players could get frustrated with his constant attempts at ridiculing them sooner rather than later.
