I'm getting tired of people say Howard needs to be watching Yao Ming, how about the way around?? Yao Ming is the BEST center in the NBA right now, there is no question about it!!! All Dwight Howard can do are rebounds, blocks, and jump out of the gym. Yao is a better passer, better scorer, better player
Howard needs to be watching Lost. No, really it's getting good!!!! IAOBTL!!!!!!!! (In and out before the lock!!)
They both have flaws in their games which teams can exploit and DO exploit when it comes to playoffs series. They both should be watching each other to improve their games but realistically speaking neither is a great center that can carry their team to a championship. Yao's exploitable weaknesses: Ineffective against fronting defense. Turnover prone once he puts ball on the floor. Stamina issues (ability to carry the offensive load through out the game) Liability on pick and roll defense. Slow footed rebounder. Dwight's exploitable weaknesses: Inability to create offense for others. Poor outside shooter. Poor free throw shooter. Commits early and foul prone. Not particularly good one on one defender given his athleticism. Howard is the Anti-Yao and vice versa but neither is great. They both come with the goods and the bads. It's almost like they are both being forced into being the next great big man but given the holes in their games, it's not happening.
Howards needs to be watching Yao's free throws and offensive movements. Yao needs to be watching Howards how to grab rebounds and break fronting defense.
