Ugh, not this shit again.
Howard is just a center now. Not much better than any starting center.
are we really taking chris sheridan seriously now?
I took a lot of arrows defending Dwight over the years. He was a great player before the back surgery. He probably should have won MVP in 10-11.
But when he started flying in that 17 year old to **** I just stopped.
And now that he is burning bridges for yet another team... Just NO. I'm done defending him permanently.
He isn't one of the best players in the league any more and his shtick is exhausting. For all his offenisve demands, he hasn't worked on his craft enough over the years to make such demands. And his personality is not conducive to winning. I think he is going to have a rude awakening when his FA hits and his list of suitors is limited to teams like Sac, NYK, etc.
I would trade for him. I would give up anything other than Lebron, Kyrie, and Love.
I also think it's unfair how people put all the blame on Dwight at all his stops. Lets not act like that Orlando didn't have half their roster on PED's. Lets not act like they didn't add Gilbert Arenas to an already fucked up roster. They paid Rashard Lewis $110M lol. But it was all Dwight Howards fault.
Oh and the Lakers.....Yea that was all Dwight Howard's fault
Lets see. Pay Kobe $30M per, make a dumb trade for Steve Nash, Hire Mike Brown
It's also funny how o many people call him soft like he wasn't the most dominant defensive player in the league. I mean wtf he should have won 4 straight DPOTY. He was to DPOTY what Lebron was to MVP. You could just chalk both of them up for those awards every year and you wouldn't be wrong. I know as Cavs fans most of us on here hate him because of the ORL series but don't get it twisted, as limited as people want to say he is offensively that's never been his game. He's a defensive force who can score points.
There are some health concerns right now and although he's only 30 he's in his 12th season. One last thing, Dwight absolutely dominated that series against Portland that Lillard hit the game winner and eliminated them. Nobody will bring that up though because you know fuck Dwight Howard right....
There is no combination of players on this roster I would willingly trade away to get Howard. Keeping Love, LeBron, and Kyrie out of the conversation, we'd have to give up something that looks like Shumpert, TT, and whatever other throw in to get him.
I'd rather have Iman Shumpert, Tristan Thompson, and some other throw in/draft pick on this team than crybaby Dwight who is already 30 years old.
hes scoring like 1.5 points a shot still. shooting 60%. he rebounds. he defends.
yea you take him.
then you remember he's dwight howard and.. we bynum'ed out.
he wouldnt exactly get 20 shots a game here either.
