    You can see this coming from many "losers" already,

    when the Hawks will win a lots of games, they will say that the Hawks did it regardless of Dwight,

    and when the Rockets will start to lose a few games, they will say this is a worse team in the NBA history if Harden is not here.

    LOL

    It's the honeymoon stage guys. He's always happy and giving full effort in the beginning.

    Why doesn't anyone talk about how Dirk didn't want to play with the 'winner' Dwight? Probably heard a few horror stories from Nash I bet.

    Any ways, Hawks will be a good team and thanks to Dwight...but the man is a ticking time bomb in the locker room.

    Dwight really doesn't have a lot of lift anymore.. good to see he's still finding ways to be effective.

    his stats against the lakers are eh. He was guarded by a rookie center-Zubak but would love to see if he can be this productive against a good team and experience center.

    How did the Hawks offense look with him taking so many shots? was it stagnant?

    I'm happy that Dwight is playing better in Atlanta, I guess it's just a case of really bad fit and chemistry with Harden....having coaches with no clue like Mchale or really inexperienced like JB certainly didn't help, maybe if we had a competent coach like JVG it would've been different.

    We need Dwight to play better to give the Cavs some competition in the Leastern conference, both NYC and Chicago are just all hype at this point.

    It's not just finals, if Cavs have an easy regular season it means they're also gonna be fresh when we face them.

    31 and 11

    Harden versus Dwhite coming up next. I want to see Dwight Howard shoot 100 free throws next game #Analytics #CabelaVersusDwightFree-ThrowShooterOff

    exactly we need the cavs to be tired the one next time when we face them in the regular season. give em hell dwight. :D

    admit it either you're still a Dwight Howard fan and you just side stepped or you really do believe the Rockets have a chance to make the finals and you just side stepped

    No it's not, I'm sure there's cell phone footage of fights in practices as well as in the locker room. It's just the worst PI cover up ever and that ignoring of the Dwight high five by Harden meant there was tremendous problems... I'm starting to think Harden might be a Kobe douche bag off camera. Probably has a huge ego and isn't really involved off court with teammates much. Tremendous talent but probably a A-hole off the court.

    What's wrong with being a Dwight fan? He was still part of the Rockets team that reached WCF and ended the 1st round hell we'd had since the YaoMac days.

    Also being a rockets fans you view every other team as competitors, it's not good for anyone of your competitors to have an easy time no matter who it is.

    Except every account is the exact opposite of what you described. There's a reason Dwight finds trouble everywhere he goes. The pretended nice guy act is old.
