Didn't he say the same thing his last year in Houston? Lol! Imma do what the coach asks for me I'll just rebound and not ask for posessions. Here is dwight talking about how he is ready to be coached by coming home to Atlanta: https://soaringdownsouth.com/2016/0...d-he-wanted-to-be-coached-in-atlanta-meeting/ Here is Dwight mature enough to help Charlotte win games: https://www.wbtv.com/story/35753317/a-more-mature-dwight-howard-ready-to-help-the-charlotte-hornets/ Here is Dwight saying "I learned Magic for eight years. Went to La-La Land. Worked for a while with Rockets. Learned to fly with some Hawks. Got stung by the Hornets. And it all taught me how to be a Wizard.": https://www.si.com/nba/2018/07/25/dwight-howard-wizards-offseason-future-john-wall-bradley-beal Now the spiel is his ego is dead and he is mature and ready to be Draymond Green lmao. One thing I can see though is Dwight is extremely creative he finds new ways to express how grown up and mature he is THIS TIME. He should find some work being a marketer for the NBA or some other league he will make a killing creating new promos, campaigns and playoff slogans.
You don’t thank a peer for calling you soft.... especially in public. Why? Well.... because that is soft. Dwight has been peddling this crap since high school. Back in high school he discussed wanting to remove Jerry West from the NBA logo and replace it with a cross. He claimed he was a good Christian boy from a great family. Dwight learned a long time ago that if he acts the part people want him to act, he can do whatever he wants.
This guy has the mental maturity of an 11 year old. If Dwight hadn't won the genetic lottery, he'd be working birthday parties somewhere, and trying to kickstart his career as a social media influencer.
He talks too much. People in the league and fans are going to criticize you, it is a given. What hurts Dwight more than anything is that he gives too much power to what is said. Goes on Inside the NBA to patch his image and it backfires. And this that he is doing now is pathetic.
I believe Dwight is being blackballed similar 2 how Melo is. He's done something that's making teams not want him. It's ironic him & Melo have histories of getting coaches fired, but who knows why
Honestly my guess is that if he didn't play basketball he would have 6-7 kids, and not work while living off various girlfriends until they kicked him out for cheating or not working.
