His career is completely done .. . . IMO He will never be Relevent again. It has nothing to do with his skills or health The game has just passed him by and he too stubborn to adapt Rocket River
After MCW is unable to continue, Scott Brooks chooses Dwight Howard to shoot two free throws in garbage time. Dwight drains them, blows a kiss to Scott Brooks, and shows his big balls
NBA.com has him #3 on their old school individual player rankings: http://www.nba.com/article/2018/01/30/old-school-power-rankings-2017-18-weeks-14-15#/ 3. Dwight Howard (32), Charlotte Hornets Previous rank: 5 Last weeks' stats: 7 games, 18.6 ppg, 14.4 rpg, 1.4 apg Season stats: 16.0 ppg, 12.7 rpg, 1.4 apg What's been more impressive: Howard shooting 77 percent from the line over the last four games or eight straight games with 15 or more rebounds? Regardless of which one you choose, there's no mistaking the impressive play of Howard, who has also managed to block four or more shots in three of the last six.
Good for Dwight. But I'd still rather have Capela who is both younger and knows how to play his role. There is no point in having 2 HOF playmakers if all your center wants to do is post up lol.
Howard should not have modeled his game after Dream, because he does not have the talent. He should have modeled his game after Karl Malone and Shawn Kemp. Howard could have easily gotten a couple of championships by just rolling to the basket over and over again. No one can really stop him when he is going downhill.
He's been going downhill since leaving Orlando. Turns out the only one who could stop him was himself...and free throws
ا much as I disliked the mailman or the thuggish behavior Malone displayed could shoot the ball from top of the key and had a deadly turnaround jump shot on the elbow. Plus he was able to run the floor and put the ball on the floor and create his own shot. He was pretty skilled for a guy of his size. Kemp also had a jump shot and was a very skilled. In fact kemp was a terrific passer. Dwight possesses nothing of those qualities.
Bro he didn't model his game after Dream, he modeled himself after Shaq, to the point that he also had the same hobbies/personality as Shaq with the comedy and the Superman schtick. If Kobe is Jordan's clone then Dwight is Shaq's clone. And Shaq never did any PnR thats why Dwight hates PnR too. The problem is Dwight doesn't have Shaq's body, he is more like De Andre Jordan or Amare Stoudamire. You are right though if Dwight just stuck to what he was good at he would be a champion by now.
The Mailman didn't create a lot of his own shots, he had one of the best passers in NBA history creating almost exclusively for him and he just bullied everyone with his length and athleticism. We know this because he looked lost AF on the Lakers and retired when he was still fine physically. Its because his creator was gone and the new league rules didn't allow him to bully his way to the basket liked he did before.
