Are we just going to ignore Dwight Howard's beast-mode performance in the playoffs so far?

    Keep it quiet. Harden can't take it

    There is no doubting that he has taken his game to another level during the playoffs. If only Harden could follow we would see a couple of blowouts.

    Nobody's ignoring it. His teammates are just wasting it.

    I'm glad he took it up to another level, but i can't help but think there's a middle ground where he should have been during the season and perhaps that would have meant a higher seed, although i'm not sure if that's good or bad this year.

    Different thread I think. That one is asking for CFers opinion on Dwight's performance this season.

    But if mods feel they are similar, please merge them.

    Not surprising seeing how he completely dominated this team in the 4 meetings this season.

    I actually want to say his regular season numbers against Portland are right in line with what he has done so far in the playoffs.

    Only wish Harden could have continued his regular season dominance against Portland into the playoffs.

    no one's ignoring it, it's what makes the 3-1 deficit that much more frustrating

    Seeing as he's going against Robin Lopez, he should **** down his neck (and proceeded to do so violently at game 2, 1st quarter). I think he's doing exactly what the team is paying him for. And as a bonus, he's looked solid from the free throw line. Good job Dwight.

    Zero complaints about Dwight in this series thus far. Dude is showing Harden what a true leader can do, and that's leading by example.

    title of that thread says 'playoff grade' but go ahead and believe what you want.

    No one is ignoring it.

    He's been great. Hopefully he carries it over into next season.

    Howard has been great. The problem is that there are other negative things going on way overshadowing his play.

    When we post up Howard, he doesn't play in and out. He keeps the ball and takes his shot, bad or good. Harden and Parsons get uninvolved and go cold.
