Lakers' Dwight Howard didn't expect to be traded by Wizards
Dwight Howard hardly suited up for the Washington Wizards.
The veteran center played in just nine games due to an assortment of
injuries, and despite having another year on his original contract, the
Wizards shipped Howard to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Dwight Howard几乎不适合华盛顿巫师。这位老将中锋因为种种伤病问题上个赛季只打了
九场比赛，尽管还有一年的合约，后来他被巫师交易到了灰熊。
In spite of the fact that the Wizards were coming off a losing season and in
desperate need of developing young talent while cutting costs, Howard said he
did not know he was going to be traded (via Fred Katz of The Athletic):
“I didn’t know I was gonna get traded, but I was prepared for anything. …
(Sheppard) called me. I guess they had already made the trade and he called
me. And it was just like, you’re traded,” Howard said. “Nothing I could do
at that point.”
事实上巫师经历了一个失败的赛季，也迫切需要在减少成本的同时训练年轻的潜力球员，
Howard并不知道他会被交易，他和美媒The Athletic说：“我不知道自己会被交易，但我
为任何事情做好准备。后来我接到Sheppard的电话，我猜他们已经进行交易了才打给我。
然后就像这样，你被交易了，当下我无能为力。”
Howard was eventually bought out, but he would have a different chance for
redemption.
The Los Angeles Lakers were in desperate need for another center with
DeMarcus Cousins suffering a torn ACL in the summer, and they brought a hoard
of big men in for workouts.
Eventually, Howard earned himself a non-guaranteed deal to return to the
franchise that had made him a practical wrestling heel in 2013. But so far,
it has been a sweet reunion.
Howard最终被灰熊买断，但是他有另一个机会救赎。洛杉矶湖人在今年夏天因为Cousins
的前十字韧带撕裂伤，他们找来一群大个子参加训练。最终，Howard获得了一份不保证
合约，重返了他在2013年摔了一跤的球队。但是到目前为止，这是一次甜蜜的团圆。
Howard is averaging 6.9 points, 7.1 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game on just
over 20 minutes per night. He has reestablished himself as one of the best
rim protectors in basketball, and in turn, the Lakers have transformed into
arguably the best defensive team in the NBA.
Perhaps Howard would have liked another shot at life in the nation’s
capital. But he is surely doing just fine for the best team in basketball.
Howard每场比赛平均上场20分钟以上，贡献6.9分，7.1个篮板和1.5个阻攻。他重新证明
自己在篮球上是最好的防守者之一，反过来说，湖人也成为可能是NBA最好的防守球队。
也许Howard希望在首都能有所表现，但是现在他肯定为最好的篮球队做得很好。

之前已经连续两年都被球队交易
DH没想到自己今年会连续三年被交易
不过也因为这样他现在才有机会回到湖人打球
前几天巫师总教练Scott Brooks在赛后称赞DH的防守表现
这也是去年他们找他到巫师队的原因
华盛顿邮报也说现在的DH才是巫师当时要的
