    There are like 7 posters on this site that aren't rockets fans, they are fans of their weird agendas and treat certain players like they slept with their moms. I don't have to worry about that because I have 2 dads. I feel like some posters die inside when jones has a good game, some posters want certain players to do awful so they look like geniuses on an Internet forum. Some might say this is the way of the world but I say it reeks of virginity and basement dwelling. A lot of "mom make me some macaroni" types.

    I told you 6 weeks ago that you were wrong. I repeatedly insisted that Dwight was coming off knee issues in the offseason and with that constraint and the respective minute/playing time restrictions he was still putting up numbers only 2 other guys in the league were accumulating in pts/rebs.

    You were wrong then. You've only grown in the magnitude of incorrectness and stupidity since.

    When was the last time you were wr....wait, rephrase that - when was the last time you admitted you were wrong? Ever? In it's original iteration your answer to my question should be anytime you open your mouth or access a keyboard.

    GTFO. Dwight is a top 3 big as defined by a combination of pts/rebs/blocks - historical pillars of big evaluation.

    This could be over if you just admitted to being wrong. WRONG. LMAO contract Dwight...yeah his agent woke him up one morning a month ago to remind him. You classy bro, u classy.

    Tyson Chandler better? LMAO. B/c he knows his role? The 15th man on a bench knows his role. Sit down, shutup, and move over when a rotation player needs a chair. That makes him better than Dwight right?

    You are the most glorified troll ever. Do you have thread starting priveleges b/c Clutch needs the troll clicks?

    Hope he stays for couple of years... he showed heart when Harden was about to give up....

    He is a better leader as of now. You can turn a blind eye to his injuries.

    He had a monster game, if he can play back to backs and get 18-10 the rest of the way, this thread will be wrong.

    Uh-Oh...if Howard averages 17 points and 17 rebounds and 5 blocks the rest of the way, he is done as an elite player because he did not get that 18th point.

    I don't hate on DD for that, it's cute, it's....DD.

    It's like getting mad at your uncle who always says strange conspiracy theories after a few drinks at Thanksgiving. DD is an emotional guy and loves the team so sometimes when he gets angry about something he just blurts out theories.

    What about now? Off the Dwight bandwagon, again?

    I guess so...from the Appreciation Thread

    Nope, I am still right about Dwight - he is done as an elite player - I said I reserve the right to change my mind, but so far, still not happening.

    He is just not the MAN anymore - and he certainly doesn't fit with Harden with his lazy lane clogging ways.

    BTW - how did that dinosaur Pau Gasol look tonight against him?

    Should I go into the Appreciation Thread to read your take on Pau Gasol vs Dwight, or do you want to discuss here?

    Dwight can still be a good to very good player...
    Only if he embraces the fact that he is no longer star.
    That means taking less money, around 14-16mil/yr.
    Knowing his strengths and weaknesses to defend and rebound.
    Give maximum effort in limited minutes.
    Otherwise I can't imagine him being a part of a championship core.

    So, you agree Dwight is done as an Elite player. Or is his defense still elite?

    Dear God his defense could be elite if he wasn't so lazy.
