    just look at our stats as a team, we're one of the greatest defensive teams in the league last 5-6 yrs

    but our offense is below average, we don't have those Laker type runs, we're not collectively a good passing team and we don't score in bunches.

    Hopefully that can change in the future.

    Late in games, we tend to go away from playing inside-out. We also don't have a reliable free throw shooter to close out games.

    2nd best center in the NBA behind Yao. Doesn't matter he'll be suspended for game 6 for intentional elbow on Dalembert.

    DEBATABLE IN BOLD

    I guess leading in points rebounds and blocks among all centers doesn't matter.

    Different teams, different stats. Check the head to head matchups for further stats. Yeah they are 2 games a season, but still.

    Magic are EXTREMELY lucky Howard wasn't ejected for that blatant elbow he threw.

    Howard is never EVER double teamed, their strategy has been to stick with the shooters and let Howard go 1 on 1 against Dalembert and ratliff.

    and so far the Rockets have been winning the boards against blazers.
