He comes off like more of a beesh by doing that. Talking tough to a guy in the stands when you know there is zero chance of actual confrontation.
The difference is that Dwight won't do anything because he's afraid of the legal consequences, not because he's scared of getting beat up. Dwight would kill that fan in a single punch if he wanted to.
Even though Lakers fans are ridiculous and I'm sure something was said that was over the line, Dwight has to be smarter than this. He's been in the league 12-13 years! He is too easily baited. It's surprising to see.
Dwight has always been mentally weak and tries to compensate by working on his physical characteristics
Dwight will never win a championship as the main star. When he will be past his prime he will go to a championship team and play there as the 6th man and may win a ring there.
Grow up Dwight. This would be like what dissing DaDakota's lastest video game and DD challenging him to a fight
I've seen Parsons have fans removed from a road game before for doing nothing. THAT is weak. Fighting is cool. Like when Harden's mom was gonna whup Barnes' ass.
I was sitting first row courtside when Parsons came back for his first game in a Dallas Uni. There were a group of fans near me who heckled him so bad he started cussing at them and asked security to remove them. They were told to be quiet or they would be removed. That seriously pissed me off.
pretty sensible take on the whole thing: http://nba.nbcsports.com/2016/11/28/dwight-howard-confronted-lakers-fan-who-called-him-a-b
Can you imagine actually getting into a fight with a guy like DW -- not DW but a guy with the same proportions?
