    Why isn't there a "Is Dwight Howard your Center of the future?"

    Why isn't there a "How many minutes will Dwight average off the bench?"

    Why isn't there a "Dwight Howard says he's OK with being the Rockets' 6th man?"

    Harden handles the ball more than him.... maybe they should stagger his minutes with Harden, and bring him off the bench.....

    Because this forum has steadily gone downhill and isn't exactly the place to go if you want to have normal, rational discussion about basketball.

    Cause us mere mortals have a hard time relating to a super being aka Superman, whereas JLin is us to some degree, like it or not!

    Dwert! I'm open!

    He is going to have a hell of a season. He will surely be an MVP candidate, but may lose some votes to Harden.
