    Pretty unfair what Kareem said about Dwight on how Laker fans shouldn't be disappointed on Dwight leaving just because he's not the player they wanted him to be...based on a season when came in hurt and obviously couldn't play like he used to when he was with the Magic. Kareem talks about how Dwight isn't good enough to help a team win, but he was the one who lead an average not-so-good Orlando team to the finals. Kareem also mentioned on Dwight being bad at shooting free throws saying, "If you have a high basketball IQ you'll know you need to work on that skill if you're going to win games." As if Howard is just ignoring his free throws and not working on it.... He does work on it and is trying to get better. Shaq won championships with the Lakers and he wasn't very good at shooting free throws. I guessed based on what Kareem said, you don't need a high basketball IQ to win it all... Seriously I was surprised he even made a comment like that. He acted like he still can't over the fact Dwight left the Lakers just like the rest of the Laker fans. Sure...Dwight should work on his free throws, but to put him like down like that is just borderline trolling when someone like Shaq has won rings in LA.

    Yeah I like the Houston bigs like Hakeem more...He doesn't talk mess like this.

    So I'm not going to mock the OP, if the OP is bilingual props for that. Learning new languages is difficult.

    But what Kareem said...I used to like the man but he just goes way too far here. He basically called Dwight stupid. He chose his words VERY carefully when praising Dwight.

    "He's a GREAT athlete." he said twice, but not a great basketball player. I think Kareem makes a valid point in there that Dwight doesn't have a go-to move.

    Blah blah blah. He's right, Dwight is not a offensive monster but defensively he's a beast. He still can score in the paint (better than any center in the NBA) and if he returns to his Orlando form he's a top 5 player.

    I don't get riled up by the Quotes From The Other Side mentality.

    my Rockets fandom is not motivated by what others say, but by how the Rockets respond to them.

    Hakeem > Kareem + Magic

    Kareem's opinions don't matter

    He's got a book to sell or something, sell that book Kareem. BTW Kareem, why is it you can't even get interviews for coaching jobs? That's just weird an all-time great can't get the time of day.
