I think you just don't understand what defense is and how much it matters.

 

[lawdog1]

just like there fans

I'll take that as a compliment from you and it's "their"

 

[sea manup]

This dude does understand there is a thing called defense that is half of the entire game, right? And its impact doesn't show up in individual stat sheets?

Dwight Howard is a limited offensive player, we get it. You're mad because he left the Lakers, we get that too.

i was so happy the day he didnt resign with us, it was the top lakers moment of the past 3 years for me

Most shots Kevin Love has taken in a game this season: 25. Kevin Durant: 24. LeBron: 20 ... Rudy Gay MISSED 26 tonight.


Toronto registered just 10 assists on 114 FGA in 110-104 loss to Houston. Unprecedented back to 1985-86 http://bit.ly/1aBHUGe

Dwight Howard has 18 pts, 24rebs and 5blks

and no offensive impact for the past half hour 

And yet he's had a good number of important rebounds, tips, and passes during that same span. Swing and a miss

dude has 2 assists in 45 minutes, he did what reggie evans would have done in a game like this. if this is what you guys call a good dwight howard game... good luck getting past the first round

Didn't say he had a good game. Point wise he had a pretty pedestrian game, but I see you conveniently ignored the rebounding. Pretty sure is Evans started in Howard's place here, he would've had 7 points, 7 rebounds, and somehow, 14 fouls. I get Lebron has shut a bunch of you up already so you need to find other players to leech off of (Howard in this case, KD and Melo for others), but try watching the entire game instead of pinpointing the most minute parts when being critical.

you guys are paying him 20 mil a year, imo that should get you more than defense and rebounding. i dont like lebron, wade, cp3 but honestly dwight howard is the only player I can hate on without fear that he will actually accomplish anything and shut me up. oh and i do give credit to guys i dont like when they play well, dwight just has yet to prove that he's worth 20 mil a year him and harden are the two biggest fools gold superstars in the nba

Dwight hasnt proven that hes worth 20M per year?  3 DPOY's, 6 years leading the league in rebounds, 9 years in the top 5 in rebounds, 5 All NBA Defensive 1st teams, 5 All NBA 1st teams and 7 all star appearances isn't enough?

those years are past him bro. he's not the same player and he doesnt have stans system to hide his weaknesses

 

[addict4sneakers]

When are people going to realize that Dwight isn't going to dominate a game on the block?

18, 25 and 5 blocks is a great game. He altered 8 shots that didn't count as blocks.

NTers have pie charts, Venn diagrams, and etch a sketches of players not defending. Dwight does it and it's "*** hum"

i was so happy the day he didnt resign with us, it was the top lakers moment of the past 3 years for me

truth, you guys got Chris Kaman, he's way better than Dwight huh?  You guys didnt need that 17 and 12 he gave yall last year

 

[bhzmafia14]

at Rudy hitting the shot to send it into double OT, but still missing that many shots.

one thing about him, he's clutch

 

[you big dummy]

I thought Rudy Gay got his vision corrected this summer

we seem to be doing better this year. you dont know how many lakers games i had to turn off last year because i couldnt stand watching this guy struggle to pull off a post move. hopefully im part of the reason he didnt resign with us because the only lakers game i went to last year (in early jan) i booed the hell out of him

I really wish someone saved some of those posts acting like that was going to do a damb thing for his chucking ways

 

[big j 33]

Do we really need another Dwight conversation? Especially when it'll be the same thing rehashed over and over again?

 

[naija nitemare]

4 fouls on Ricky Rubio in this 3rd quarter :x

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

Blake Griffin in the post, dawg

 

[julius wrek]

Refs really have to stop rewarding Chris Paul for flopping man...



Julius F. Wrek

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Four straight wins for Boston. Tied for first in the Atlantic. Playoffs here we come.

 

[do work son]

Meanwhile in Indiana, Roy Hibbert had 3 points and 7 rebounds.

 

[jpzx]

Chris Paul probably has the patent on flip-flops.

 

[naija nitemare]

Blake Griffin in the post, dawg

Not sure if serious but he's been playing better ever since he's been using his quick first step as opposed to holding the ball and thinking

 

[shoeking2101]

Meanwhile in Indiana, Roy Hibbert had 3 points and 7 rebounds.

But that's the guy that's better than Dwight Howard

 

[reggiekiller]

Meanwhile in Indiana, Roy Hibbert had 3 points and 7 rebounds.

and people say this dude is better than Dwight.  I was just having this conversation.  Dude is NOT a good rebounder, and disappears drastically in games.

[reggiekiller]

this dude Andre Drummond with 15, 16, 2 and 2 

 

 

[naija nitemare]

Look @ Collison thinking he CP3 expecting a foul when Kevin Martin bumped into him
