Lakers News: Dwight Howard Banner Ad Placed on Beverly Hills Hotel

I’m not sure if this desperation will help the Lakers re-sign Howard or not, but it’s certain that the fans are beginning to show their displeasure with the billboards. While many fans do want Howard back, they don’t seem to be enjoying watching the team grovel over him.
