Dwight Howard Trade: The (early) End of an Era?

Does this pair make the Lakers title favorites again?

For most fans, the 2012 NBA Finals seemed like a primer for the next decade. It really started to look like the 2010’s were going to be the era of Durant vs. LeBron, much like the 80’s were dominated by Bird vs. Magic. Unlike the 80's, though, this era was going to have a definitive hero (Durant's Thunder) and villain (LeBron's Heat). It was going to be awesome. And then Dwight Howard screwed it up for everyone.
