Yao actually does have pretty good footwork. He wouldn't have such a smooth fadeaway otherwise. Unfortunately he's so big that he can't switch...
What a joke. Dwight's abilities are being strong and jumping high. Hakeem would be a top player in any professional sport.
How dare LBJ and Wade discuss what a great pick and roll combo they would be, while the proletariat still live under the heel of the bourgeousie.
No, I'm a Houston fan. If Howard only did this once I would accept your excuse. If you can't see how silly you sound making excuses for so many...
Let me guess you are a Magic fan.
Nice find on the videos. End of argument. @Leebigez: this is not about Yao. Get over it.
Sure, it's not an obvious foul on Howard, since he does have the right to go up for his shot. But give these players some credit --- it's not like...
He doesn't have to apologize right after the play. He can do it later. Even if it was inadvertent, it's not cool to pretend nothing happened when...
Poorly officiated game, but didn't look like a fix. It is irritating to see Howard knock Davis out with a concussion and then not get called for a...
Is Beyonce a Rockets fan? We should get her to sing him a song.
Here was an interesting blog post about how the Celtics are frustrating Dwight Howard in the pick and roll, and it helps illustrate some of...
Durvasa is of course right that Howard can score effectively, but not at an elite level, in the post. I think the issue is that Durvasa is...
Basketball is very very difficult to ref. Things happen quickly, refs have bad angles, and many plays are subjective. That being said, 2005 is...
Good point. Has it ever been settled how much of that was Morey's decision?
Great article. A lot of it is known here on clutchfans, but the interview with his old Northwestern prof and the detail on Les's GM search stand out.
Marc Gasol is pretty good now, but that does not change how horrible of a trade it was. M Gasol was unproven, which vastly decreased his trade...
Yeah I think you hit the nail on the head. Howard is obviously a very very good defensive player. But he simply doesn't have to guard anyone 1v1,...
It's not just age. Dream had an unstoppable spin move and fadeaway from the beginning. What he learned later were an automatic jump hook, some...
From a purely physical perspective, there are many with a comparable combination of power and speed. Jordan obviously. Jordan was the strongest...
Point taken, but bad example. Mad Max was the only player to have the guts to choke a fan, knowingly infect a woman with herpes, snort coke before...
