We literally would text every day.” At the press conference, Howard confirmed that statement, “dude stayed hitting me up.” I was just that guy trying to make him feel as comfortable as possible. We have very similar personalities. We are both outgoing. We’re always smiling. We like to have fun. I made him really comfortable that he was not only coming to a really good team, but a team with his friends on It. – Chandler Parsons  Dwight Howard, like every NBA Star has his needs.
