Dwight really was that dude before that back injury/surgery and he bounced back so fast to be able to continue his career. The media absolutely destroyed his reputation and as a result ppl STILL snub him and disrespect him. It’s crazy how it all played out.

[@juicyeboi9006]

The fact he was mocked for being soft whilst playing through an absolutely destroyed back and still being all star level shows how stupid we as nba fans are

[@S7ayMelo]

Moreover the fact they put day to day Davis in the top 75 over him when u look back now looks stupid asf

[@punchito]

@@juicyeboi9006 its new fans that only wanna see steph curry and his clones shoot 3s for 48 minutes that have no clue what basketball is

[@bball90]

Facts! Shouldn’t even have played in 2012 and averaged 17 & 12 at literally 50%. The Dwight slander is ridiculous

[@jaguareagle7026]

Lakers wouldnt won that Mickey Mouse ring without Dwight as well. He was solid during that run

[@davidbush1965]

Was just thinking about how epic a sim where you start in 1984 but reject all the expansion teams as you sim to the present so all the talent is compressed into a smaller league would be INCREDIBLE when you reminded me to like

[@tristinglasscock2608]

Thst a a good idea fr

[@lebronjamesat40]

That idea sounds fire

[@Po17ard]

Yeah baby! Grew up as a huge D12 fan, so happy Clique dropped this banger. Thanks man!

[@yea-duhh]

Prime Dwight was a different beast back then and him against Giannis right now would be like LeBron and Kobe.

[@kevingriffith677]

giannis would eat him alive don't kid yourself

[@renegadeavon541]

Would love to see a Tracy McGrady or a DeMar DeRozen re-sim or a no injury resim for Kawhi from the year he came into the league (same for Tracy)

[@Libbawittz]

He's done Tracy already.

[@renegadeavon541]

@@Libbawittz has he also not redone some of his other video ideas tho

[@rollingcourage6658]

I don’t know if it’s already been done, but I think it’d be interesting to do a simulation of a season where every team has its highest rated player removed.

lakers would get lucky

Been waiting a wile for this

[@Amm17ar]

Dwight was one of the best players in the league for a long time. The best young center during his first couple years and definitively the best C in basketball from 2007-2011. Dudes a 8x All-Star, 8x All-NBA, 3x DPOY, and a 5x All-Defense. Hes 10th in total rebounds, 13th in blocks, 19.4k points. Name 1 guy with a resume like that left off the 75th aniversary team. I forget who, but someone in the media said "Dwight Howard played himself off the 75th Aniversary team"......if thats even remotely true, how is that even possible? With all due respect to Damien Lillard, and comparatively resume-wise Anthony Davis......how did those two make it over Howard? On top of that Howards won an NBA Championship as someone who played a decent amount of minutes and contributed a good amount to that championship. Its a nice way of saying he wasnt a bum riding the bench on the way to a free ring. I could talk about the back injuries that defined his later half of his career, but most just look at his stats and call him washed. I wont go into that, but what I will get into is the fact that Dwight was still a damn good NBA player in LA. Despite what most think, he played 76 games for LA. He was a 17 pts 12 rebs and 2.4 blks a game player in LA, and even better in Houston for the first year where he also played over 70 games. He obviously had a significant drop off the last year in Houston, but go check out his Per 36s in Atlanta, Charlotte and his second stint in LA. Whether his body wouldnt allow it or the coaches wouldnt let him play more, he was putting up amazing numbers....especially in Charlotte. No He cant shoot threes and no he hasnt had a ton of post-game. He relied on his strength, athleticism and dominance to ensure he got his and when it faded, so did the perception he wasnt good anymore. But the game moving to a more shooting oriented style took away from his strengths and abilities along with the injuries. Far from the player he used to be, but dude deserves some much needed respect. Hes a HOFer, an NBA Champ and one of the most dominent forces the NBA has seen. Orlando was a team way ahead of its time and its a shame it ended the way it did, but Dwight was a huge part of that team. He led the Orlando Magic franchise to the NBA Finals to face one of the games goats. Obviously theres a big difference between him and Shaq, but Shaq didnt get hurt till later. If he didnt get hurt, we wouldnt be having this conversation imo, but thats just my opinion. What I listed are the facts and his stats, which should have been more than enough to grant him a spot in the top 75. Sad that the people voting didnt see that. Dame and AD still had a chance to make it onto the top 100 in 25 years. Theyve both got a lot of NBA left in them and chances to improve their resumes. Dwight doesnt, and thats what makes it sad to me.

[@CD-cu9yr]

LETS GOOOOO, love Dwight and keep making bangers man!

[@karthika.v5371]

RIP oguagua ampedugumbo who is now 13

[@3serio]

I remember as a kid, Dwight’s AAU team were basically the Monstars in Atlanta. They had Dwight, Josh smith, Javaris Crittenton, Brandon Rush, and this dude Mike Merceri don’t think they ever loss. Too much size and length and athleticism for HS aged players to deal with. They locked everybody down, and killed in transition. Their fast breaks were like And1 with the dunks they’d pull off.

[@aadhiash0189]

I was learning how to write Greek in German in Spanish in English when you reminded me to like the video

[@bball90]

“Wasn’t even injuries, just went downhill” Cmon now. Dude literally had severe back surgery at the end of the year before he was brought to LA, played earlier than he should’ve, and still played 76 games in 2012 at 50%

[@stillwilllb222]

Need to do a Collier career sim. That boy was different.

Was procrastinating for all my exams this week when you reminded me to subscribe.

[@FortunateKidd]

Crazy thing is the ceiling at the beginning for Howard was Wilt and just like wilt got stopped by Russell Howard got stopped by Victor

[@FortunateKidd]

It was definitely Howard’s back injury in 2010 that made the Magic not want to resign him and that’s when he went to the Lakers and it got worse and worse for him. He was definitely my favorite player behind Tim Duncan at that time.

[@joeygula581]

dude had a 12-year career he can't possibly suck show some respect

[@Volantredx]

Fun note, the one time Dwight gets the Jazz to the finals they end up losing to the Bulls. At least Dwight took them to 7, Malone only ever got 6 games.

i have a 5 foot teddy bear that i just put my dwight magic jersey on today and he’s chilling in my dorm room staring at me while i watch this

Dwight did have an injury. When he was traded to the lakers he had a back injury that caused his decline

I’m also from queens Long Island, rockaway to be exact n a die hard Knicks fan. Been one since Nate jumped over Dwight. Maybe do a Nate resim with a higher potential. You’re a goat Clique!

[@PeterRafaelpGod30]

I recently saw a drose interview in which he spoke about the bulls saying they weren't gonna take him #1 so i think it be interesting to pair him with a prime wade right out the gate

Let’s go!!! Been waiting for this one for awhile

[@Clutch3x]

Dwight was great back then especially in 2010

[@pureo_nikku]

Watching the Dwight Magic Secret Base video and then seeing the situation again on old Inside the NBA clips, I can't believe that happened with him and Stan. Even after all we've seen in the league the last few years. I think I might try building that Dwight team in 2K9 or NBA Live 08 sometime

[@FadedIsCool]

rebuild my team (Timberwolves) and make the video name “Rebulding the Timberwolves Because They’re Frauds”

[@paulinoking123]

Dwight didn't just "randomly" fall off in 2013 he was coming off a back injury that he was never the same after. He played most of that season with the lakers playing hurt and still averaged 18 and 13

[@jamalbigbuddy]

when are we getting a “Clique Production” career simulation?

[@Bobobobo69021]

I can’t believe Dwight was allowed to wear the number of celtics legend Brandon Bass

VIDEO IDEA: Mix two NBA goats rookie versions in 2k and see if one of your creations becomes the next goat but here are the rules each creations has to be the same position for example ray Allen and Mj for SG or Wilt and Bill for center do this 3 or 2 times

bro be saying the most random things😭😭"bam adebayo retired"💀

[@larryzhang865]

dwight staring into my soul in the thumbnail

[@genesisosuna]

Pretty sure dwight's back injury made him "fall off" and got him traded from the magic, he was also already unhappy with the magic so it was a perfect time to get off of dwight.

Do a sim where T-Mac and Grant Hill never get hurt amd stay together in Orlando. If you haven't done that already. Maybe you did something similar like Tim Duncan going to the magic.
