Dwight Howard has said that he made the right choice in joining the Houston Rockets last summer.
The center discussed a new contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, before deciding to make the move to the Rockets.
The 28-year-old told ESPN: "There's a couple things that could've been done, but that's over with now. I'm in a better place, our team is doing great and the Lakers, they'll come back. But hopefully this is the Rockets' time.
"I think I still might follow them on Twitter, that's about it. I don't pay attention to what's on TV and what's being said. I just focus on my team.
"I know that a lot of people were very hurt. With this situation, it being my first year, and I left after that. People were mad that I left the Lakers and nobody's ever left the Lakers, so they were upset about that."
Howard will face his former team when the Rockets travel to the Lakers tonight.
