You have to let him get into a rhythm. Remember what happened when we kept on going to him? Last season when Harden went out, Dwight dominated in that month. He also dominated in the playoffs.
I just remember in the playoffs last season, in crunch time the ONLY thing that seemed to work was just dumping it down low to Dwight and letting him go to work. We were just chucking and clanking threes to no avail, but Dwight was basically automatic. We will have to have an established inside presence in the playoffs or we will lose in the first round again.
Come on! Doesn't Clyde remind you of an "aw shucks!" kind of guy? Bear with him if you can. He completes the Three Musketeers of the broadcast team. It's entertaining.
Good point, but just IMO when Dwight's post game is going he is one of the most dominant players in the league. Could be wrong, but just my opinion
A member of the 50 greatest NBA players of all times cares not about what you think of him as an announcer.
He does show flashes of his post game from time to time, but he is unable to bring it consistently right now. More touches will help him to get into a rhythm, but it seems that he needs more time to get completely healthy. I am pleased with D-Mo's progress, but there is no doubt that we can't go deep in the playoffs without a dominant Howard. This is a matter of real concern right now.
Dwight's problem has never been his post moves, it's always been his touch, we watch him generate so many good looks, way better than dmo's, but dwight can brick 3 foot hooks like a boss, whilst dmo can softly caress 8-10 footers on queue. Dmo's moves seem more flash than substance a lot of the time, but his touch on the hook shot is the best in the nba. For Dmo that was probably one of his problems with the coaches, he looks like he's taking bad shots, but since he can hit them at 60% and no one else can, for him and only him, they're not actually bad shots.
Dwight hasn't been putting out recently. Sometimes he's barely trying, like against the Jazz. Don't know if it's laziness. Injury. Maybe he's stepping back so D-Mo and Josh Smith can grow. Both of those guys played harder and impacted the game more than Dwight.
I don't understand how year after year they keep rolling Clyde out here as an announcer. He sucks. He's ill prepared, he's not well spoken, he's not charismatic, he's not funny, he's not able to communicate strategy on the floor... he's a constant cluster**** as an announcer. Do something with this guy already.
Not so much in fourth quarters if I remember correctly. He scored a lot of his points in the first halves of games
Couldn't agree more. Nearly everything that falls out of his mouth nightly is redundant and obnoxious.
I think Clyde is right in the sense that he is not being involved in the offense...Now his touches don't need to come from the post, but guys like Pat and Ariza have to at least look his direction when he sets them a screen...Featuring him in P&R rather than just using him as brick wall and or ignoring him for several possessions is what I think Clyde is clawing at Giving Dwight looks off the roll (Like the Elbow P&R they used against the Knicks) may even lead him to have more success in the post, Much like a shooter starting in close rather than coming off the bench chucking from the parking lot...y'know get him in a Rythm
