Dream talks meeting with Howard

It's no secret that the Houston Rockets have positioned themselves as the front runners to land Dwight Howard.  As Howard met with the Rockets on Tuesday, Rocket legends Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler were in attendance while Yao Ming and Dikembe Mutombo was Skyped in.  Olajuwon recently spoke about Houston's chances of signing Howard.  

“It’s an 85 percent chance he ends up in Houston,’ Olajuwon said. ‘You never know, but after that meeting we had, I feel very comfortable that we have the best chance to get him.’

‘We’re going to come to you,’ Olajuwon said. ‘You have James Harden there. You have the backcourt. You’re going to get the ball. The coach is there knowing we need your presence in the middle. So we were speaking his language. It’s what he wanted. So he was so excited.’

‘He needs to be comfortable......There’s a lot of expectations because his position is the primary position for any team. It’s the foundation of any team. So he needs to accept that responsibility. When you play with a team that looks for you to establish yourself, before they can establish a team, that makes him more comfortable, knowing his role is so valuable......If you truly want to win a championship, this is the right team,’ Olajuwon said. ‘And I think he feels the sincerity that this is a true opportunity to make something special.’
