Mutombo had no offensive game what so ever and he got destroyed by Shaq in the finals. I love Mutombo, but he was behind Dream, Ewing, Robinson, Shaq and Zo during his era.
I don't disagree with Kareem. It isn't from a lack of worth ethic in my eyes for Dwight though. Having said that, I really think we will see a different Dwight this year. I don't know why but I just feel it.
This article basically sums up my thoughts on the matter. http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/63101/kareem-abdul-jabbar-talks-dwight-howard Regardless of how much Howard doesn't look the part of a dominant center the way Shaq, Dream, etc. were, he's still a top player production wise. In the end, isn't that what matters?
Dude its great to see Stephen A ask him about his LA bias. I dislike him most of the time. But I like him playing Devil's advocate in this sense.
Dwight does not need to be in the Top 10-15 of greatest players of all time. All he needs to do is being in the Top 50 like McHale. That is enough..... Kareem is the better player but he should not blast players that leave the Lakers high and dry. Rate him when he is finished playing his career. This way he and D'Antoni would not sound butthurt.
Lets show some passion and give the 66 yrs old guy a break. Everyone is entitle to their opinion. Just wanted to see DH having a blast season.
That's why Dwight came to houston right there because the scumbags in LA act like that Dwight told Stephen a smith he didn't care what any of those LA guys said about him Dwight said Hakeem has never said anything bad about me Kareem probably rubbed Dwight the wrong way that's why he didn't want to train with him and he mentioned Bynum and gasol two 7 footers of course they were going to stop Dwight all they did was double team can somebody do me a favor and pull up his stats against the lakers in the finals please
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's just that Kareem and the entire Lakers organization are coming out like hypocrites. First, it was #stayD12(begging) now, "oh we're better off without him, blessing in disguise, Pau is the best center, Kaman is better (LOL), he's just a great athlete but dumb as a rock and oh, he's not a winner. yada yada yada" Talk about butthurt.

If the numbers I looked up are correct Dwight averaged 15pts and 15rbs with 4 blocked shots a game in the finals yeah pay and Bynum really stopped him screw Kareem
That Lakers team was stacked. Howard had let's see, Jameer, Lee, Turkeyglue, and Riddick I think. Yeah, basically it was just him and a bunch of role players against 2 all-stars, 1 borderline all-star at the time, a 6th man of the year and that POS Derick Fisher.
Also skip throwing all names of legendary Centers who avg. more than 20 pts per game... he forgot to include Bill russell who never Avg. a 20 pts per game but has the most chips LOL
