Sources: Dwight doesn't see himself as a Rocket next year

It wont be tough to replace Dwights production you might improve in other areas that will improve the team as a whole. We are already not winning WITH Dwight and we've proven we can win without him.

 

Screw him but Clint isn't ready to start

 

He will be when Horford launches off.

 

Woulda..coulda..shoulda traded him.

 

considering that Barnes will get paid about that money and Anderson and Parsons and P.Gasol and who knows if Fournier as well I have no problem paying Dwight up to 25 per for 4 years. But no more than that.

The Bucks playmakers get the centers involved all the time with lots of lobs and can throw entry pass and the offence start from the high post with the C. When I see Plumlee who is braindead become an offensive weapon then Dwight will be a great fit too. Even Henson who never before had demonstrated such abillity now throws good passes to the cutters.

And Dwight can hide Jabari until he becomes an average defender, and with the further improvement in shooting from both the forwards Dwight would be one of the best way to spend all the money.

 

Surely he doesn't think he'll be "showcased" anywhere other than a lottery team. Even then I highly doubt he's the first option...smh what a chump.

 

Can't see Dwight wanting to go to Milwaukee but what you say here makes sense on how he would be used there and how he would look. I don't think I'd give him 4/100. But I think he's worth 5/100 or 4/80+. But in Milwaukee....maybe they'd give him 4/100 if they could shuffle away Greg what's his name.

 

You are missing the bit where Dwight can't defend. Then offensive fouls. Drops the ball out of bounds off his knee after demanding it in the post. Clogs the lane so the young bucks can't get in there. Grabs a defensive board and throws it straight out. Stupidly gets Td up for pushing someone. Then laughs and sprays stickum all over everyone.

 

Sure he is. We just need to chase a marquee 4.

 

D12 is not being utilized to his strengths with minimal usage on offense. At the same time, the Rockets free flow style does not need a dominant big man.

Best for both parties to go into different directions.

 

Yes, we do need a dominant big man. Because our free-flow offense leads to terrible shooters taking terrible shots and then our opponent gets runouts and we are stuck in transition defense way too often with one defender back getting burnt....that is if Harden doesn't turn the ball over before we even get a shot off.

Our free flow everything is producing mediocrity.

 

Well If he wants to come I would pay him 25 per. Small market teams dont' get good FAs.
Granted I am the only Bucks fan that would do that, but that's because I know that Dwight isn't as portrayed by the media a cancer.
Monroe will get traded for sure. He makes Jabari invinsible because they operate at the same spots.
I think to Portland.

Dwight is still an elite defender.
Centers that have to play with such horrible perimeter defence as the Rockets have this year, always get exposed. Put Gobert here and he will look much worse as well.
But with good wing defence Dwight will shine.
As for offensive fouls, that's why we have one other good backup C and maybe we can keep Plumlee as well and GA can also play C.

 

This season, but it's not the norm. While I agree Dwight will be missed you're also talking about a player that can be neutralized fairly easily with the hack a strategy

 

Spot on my man, I thought I was the only one that saw this. Please spend the money elsewhere, we can do better than that. Hope Les doesn't listen to Clyde who seems to over look all of Howard's short comings and blames the rest of the team for not getting him the ball.

 

Nope nope, nope....NO ****ING WAY is Dwight a Superstar, or worthy of being built around his post game.

He had his shot, he is a loser, a guy who just doesn't have IT, and is losing whatever he DID have rapidly.

The part between both ears will always hold him back, Dwight is a mental midget.

The sooner he goes the better.

You look at the top ball clubs and none of them are known for their big man paint play. Even SA - LMA is a guy with range who isn't dominating the paint necessarily.

Today's game requires guys who can open up the paint, not clog it.

Dwight is a throw back player for an era that is gone. When you came is within 5 feet of the basket, you don't fit well on any team. That has been the primary problem with Howard.

Great defensive teams dont' do it the same way anymore. They do it with great team defense, not big time shotblockers but just great defenders at multiple spots who can harass anyone. The exception might be the Clippers with DJ.

Howard lacks the BBIQ to be effective as his body ages. Best to let him walk now.

 

If you have great slashers cutters and ball movement a C who demands attention instead of clogging the paint opens it up.

 

Howard out... Parsons in?

 

Not when you can just foul the center and send him to the line, Dwight doesn't even require a double team anymore.

He was great in Orlando, but he is in serious decline...we are a better TEAM without him.

We wont keep the shooters we have if Morey is smart. And if Morey likes his job we wont even have the coach or system we have now. So arguing that Dwight is better than other players on the team we have is mute, he gets paid 23 mil and wants more he should be better and more efficient than them. The question is, is he doing his job or would the Rockets be better served getting a a four who can do the things that Dwight seem to not able to do. Anyway I believe Cyber, Dwight wants to leave so it doesn't matter what you think of his efficiency.
