    Hope he's okay with Harden getting all the (much deserved) attention lately.

    Dwight is playing like a top 5 player.

    So is Harden.

    Rockets = Beast

    Watch his postgame interview with Clutch + media.

    Not a hint of jealousy.

    In fact, the dude came off as extremely grounded and seemed focused on OKC as opposed to reveling in this victory.

    I still can't believe we landed this guy...

    Yea, so, there should be 0 complaints from Roxnation, and he's been quiet in the media, so no blasting from them. He is quietly putting up better numbers than when he was on the lakers, but Harden is the bearded one, and Lin is polarizing whether he lights it up, scrubs it up, or on his mean (which is odd, because he is dead average, but never has an average game haha), and Parsons' face dominates the media. So no Dwight news from any direction, and that's a GREAT thing

    Dwight's leadership has impressed me this year. He does goof off alot, but he's kept his composure and remained consistent throughout the year. He doesn't seem to get as many boneheaded offensive foul calls as last year. He's just been a complete workhorse for us this year

    Dwight has been a huge positive. Not just his game on the court but I believe he has brought true leadership and composure. I believe it is rubbing off on guys like Harden.

    When Dwight gets a statue in front of Toyota Center, will it just be a giant bust of him laughing?

    You guys noticed that there hasn't been a "Hack a Dwight" for a while now? Credit him for that.

    what I have also seen is some true signs of learning. At times, at least, he's showing better agility/footwork, and he seems to be making moves moreso (than before) based on defender position/tactics rather than just making up his mind before even getting the ball
