    He has his shortcoming, but the man brought it on both ends all playoffs.

    I'm proud of Dwight for showing such heart and fire.

    If he was, he needs to shut up. How about hitting free throws. How about not being a turnover machine. How about some. Semblance of a post game.

    Dwight is very good at defense but his offensive limitations are beyond frustrating. I've been critic of hardens game but he definitely took a step forward this postseason with some serious virtuoso performances. He has room to grow.

    For the 2nd year in a row playoff Dwight was the overall leader once again. Last person to be criticized

    Josh Smith was close to Harden's terrible performance.

    If only he'd handled the ball more.

    I don't get people that defend Howard saying he always comes to play. On top of not making his damn freethrows, he misses it seems like 90% of the little bunny shots at the rim a normal center SHOULD make. AND he gets out rebounded by freaking guards sometimes!! Dwight needs to take a long look in the mirror too, y'know.

    Dwight played his ass off. I don't know why everyone seemingly hates him. Dude earned my respect big time.

    Dwight will be 30 this year, so it is not like there is too much time anyway considering his skillset. Maybe if he had some post moves. Capela and DMo will be the future frontcourt and Harden knows that. That's why he doesn't give a damn about Dwight. Have they ever even had a post game interview together? Dwight is right about Harden not fighting though. Imagine if James had Dwight's heart? This is why I think Terry won't be back either. He sees the mental weakness.

    LOL whatever!

    Dwight passed it without eye contact and into the front row - and dont' get me started on how lazy he is on boxing out.

    I can't wait for his contract to be up, he is going to continue to decline...

    He didn't bring a damn thing on offense this series. Most of his points were oops or putbacks or spoon fed passes in the paint. He can't create offense for himself and its just a mess in the post. We look even worse when we run the offense thru him.

    His play has been by far the most consistent in the playoffs. If you don't see that then you don't really understand basketball and what Dwight does

    Seriously! You need to stop with negative crap. The team is close to winning it all, no one expected the Rockets to even make the playoffs this year. Your comments have been more in line with what Spurstalk fans do a lot of on their site. Seems like you have picked up bad habits from commenting over there.

    You should probably watch those passes again. Terry was open for a layup on one and Howard just grabbed a huge offensive reb and terry hesitated to come to the ball. Thing like this how people don't really understand situations. They just see the pass and don't realize that's the right basketball play

    I guess you didn't get the memo Howard acknowledged about his role going forward when he came back from injury. You should probably take a look at that before speaking further

    Nah, Dwight overthrew both, especially that first one. Was a terrible pass that an average at best passer should not make. He had teammates right next to him, but tried getting fancy. That first one was a killer to the momemtum the Rockets had.
