    There will only be one Dream. You need to quit trying to make someone he's not.

    Scoring is not the only skill in basketball. Ppl on tv value offense too much. The "Rondo cant be the best pt guard in the league cause he cant shoot" arguement. Its just annoying. The Rockets dont need Dwight to score 40 pts and grab 20 rebs, they need Harden to try on defense and score 30+ every playoff game. Dwight needs to get those boards and block shots...thats his role, he's elite at it so just be happy and chill with your everybody needs to be Hakeem. Hakeem is rare, will never be another...let Dwight be Dwight...grab those boards DH

    Go Rockets

    you don't win with one guy carrying that much scoring load, and I think you're confusing Harden with Durant....

    Dwight is a beast that draws the double team, you have to use that to your advantage

    Why people think he can learn post moves at this stage of his career? He is who he is, just needs to be smarter with when to do what. He can out quick & jump almost every center, and bully almost every PF. He just need to learn how to mix those two.

    Attacking Lopez, he can get half step on him every time. The problem is after he got that half step, he didn't use his body well to keep Lopez away from the ball, hence his shots was always disrupted.

    Love seeing this, but i still wish Dream would be in his ear during the game.

    No one said Dream is telling him to do an actual Dream Shake.

    If you're referring to the spin move I posted, it's something Dwight always does, so I'd imagine Dream is encouraging it. Dream should definitely continue to work with him, but something is wrong, if Dwight can't pick up basic stepss on a move he's frequently done throughout the season. Somewhere, a different approach needs to be made, either by the coaches/dream or the training staff.




    Do you even read, bro?

    "No, Dwight, you must fockas. Stay out of the poop threads, ignore the LOFs, and every day check Unsorted."

    The dedication to Clutch City is amazing.

    Dream should get another ring if we win a championship again.

    I think he's actually hired by the Rockets, right? So he's just doing his job.

    There is a reason only Kobe can successfully mimic some dream moves. Agility and speed at that size is a once in a generation attribute. You need grace, not just power.also, cash goes to hakeems charitable foundations and Islamic churches... Writer is pretty stupid for thinking otherwise. Dwight can still improve if he applies himself.. No reason a guy can't get smarter after a certain age.

    Dwight: Some of the girls are busted on the Lin/Hotties thread. Except those hot ones wearing the Rockets gear.

    Dream: I bet Chandler Parsons has babes lining up like a backstreet boy concert

    Dwight: you read any of the 99ers threads?

    Dream: yes, they have the heart of champion

    Dwight will give you his usual 18 points but like ole buddy just mentioned he just need to do what he does best and that is to rebound and protect the rim.

    I wish Howard would run just the p&r and clean the glass for put backs.

    If he did that, we'd win a championship. Only someone with the stature of the Zen Master could convince him.

    On most of the matchups, I have to agree. But against Blazers, he should post up.

    There are only a few teams that Dwight can completely dominant and Portland is one of them.

    you don't give someone max money to grab rebounds and protect the rim. **** man, that's what Asik did last year.

    Howard needs to step up offensively, whether through PnR or post-up. You know how people, not me, say Harden isn't a superstar yet because he has no D? Well the same logic applies to Dwight. Superstars can and will get whatever they want whenever they want on BOTH ends of the court.

    The Dwight Shake followed by dominant plays.

    Dream nods with approval, the student has learned much from the master.
