Inside The NBA Dwight Howard is a good player , not a great player

[@daveclark8337]

If Dwight gets the ball in his hands away from the basket, he looks terrified and treats it like a hot potato. Compared to someone like Jokic, where the Defense has to worry about him passing, driving and shooting

[@drevm7991]

YaboiShaun Dwight didn’t fade because he went to LA. He faded because he had terrible back injuries hampering him that year and he played through them. Then he just got older. Centers don’t last as long as the other positions. He never would’ve been the next Shaq, he played for 7 years before he left ORL and he wasn’t nearly as dominant or good as Shaq. He was an elite center in a time where very few great centers existed, then lost it due to time and injuries. The coach in LA also played him totally wrong most nights he wasn’t hurt.

[@chrispy9736]

He still has crazy numbers and hof numbers

[@hwillis8]

Boy this didn’t age well if the lakers win

[@EM-et4jq]

Rashard Lewis and Hedo deserve a lot more credit for that late 00’s Orlando team success.

[@Spaced92]

It's kinda funny how people used to hate on Shaq for saying Howard should be better, His comments are supportive in comparison to what people call Howard now, we could've had another great center but he was too scared to really improve, or maybe he didn't his job all that seriously. Like Barkley and Shaq said, those same predictable post moves his entire career.

[@blanc18]

no shaq never said dwight should be better, shaq talked shit about people in their primes and ruined their contracts. he never said "he should be better" shaq is justa piece of shit who ruins players contracts

What world are you living in dumbass , Shaq was right , dwight back then had an advantage no other center had their was Gasol but he wasn't athletic , so Dwight could have dominated both ends of the floor and deliveeed the numbers Shaq was talking about but since he left Orlando he became an average player and the years after this proves that at 30 he became a bench player

@ 1:10-1:24 Chucks sums it up perfectly about Dwight.

[@WesleyKane179]

It’s so cool when they zoomed out and showed how intensely Ernie, Chuck and Kenny were listening to the Big Aristotle when he broke down what it takes to be the most dominant player in NBA history.. love these guys!

[@sunnyv5718]

We went one, two, one. We’re supposed to go one, two, three.

[@chikowashere]

He should've been great, but he's too goofy. He had Patrick Ewing in Orlando and Kevin Mchale and Hakeem in Houston, and still never developed a real post game. Even going as far as saying that he didn't want Ewing's advice. He went to play with Kobe, Kobe was on his ass from day one just like he was with Gasol. Except Gasol didn't let it get to him, and he actually listened to what Kobe was saying and they got a ring. Dwight just folded. In Orlando Matt Barnes would say that he would be goofing around in the playoffs during their title run. Instead of locking in because he was playing against the Celtics, and Matt would go onto say in his podcast: 'We're playing the Celtics. They HATE you. You can't be goofing around before the game.' And now he finally has a ring because LeBron wanted another big man. He still has no post game. I don't wanna say that he lucked into a ring, but there was a reason that he was jobless for most of the year and hasn't had a steady team in 5 years.

[@thelowesttreeshavetops3541]

I remember all those training videos of NBA stars working out with Hakeem. With Hakeem, it wasn't just his footwork. It was his shoulders and head movement, as well. Not Dwight's strengths at all.

[@michaelhall1616]

Looking back at this now, he wasn’t wrong

[@aleksandarstojanovski9193]

dwight howard went too hard on the weights, he was waaay waaaay too big and stiff and i believe that contributed to his back injuries which is a damn shame

[@thenotoriousmichaeljackson8938]

Aleksandar Stojanovski Lmfaooooo

[@WyWid]

Right. He has a set of bowling balls on his shoulders. Has to turn sideways to fit through a door frame. Big legs, thick glutes, nice calves. I tell you I really salivate over this guy

[@ian.piepenbrock]

100% correct. Believe it or not, his summer prep + season in Charlotte is when that probably finally got addressed. Dwight hired a full time personal trainer who said he was so suprised how stiff Dwight was. They then did a lot of plyometrics, calisthenics, balance training, running, some slimming down and we got a lean, agile and mobile Dwight back. Unfortunately it was a bit too late.

[@PHNX-bv5qs]

It's crazy how this conversation about Dwight could be applied to the Ben Simmons dilemma in Philly, almost same exact thing (though I think Dwight contributed a lot more compared to Ben)

[@seanbrowne5345]

Thats a great comparison! Ben Simmons is just so in his own head right now it's hard to see him recovering from whatever he is going through mentally which is sad

[@seanbrowne5345]

I'm not saying he has a mental illness or anything like that just clearly something is wrong such as confidence or whatever

[@nza1804]

Dwight was actually a very good player though

D-12 is a very nice guy, but not a great basketball player Olajowan was great. Dwight is very good Kobe knew he wasn't great, and wouldn't be more than very good. That pissed him right off because he has the raw physical skills to be dominant, but can't do it.

Anyone catch Shaq saying he always found a way to score 28 points a quarter? lol

[@razkable]

shaq meant 7 a quarter 28 a game....for 11+ years.....he got confused but hes right...dwight should be able to score 1 basket a quarter on post ups....1 on pick and rolls...1 ft a quarter made out of say 2 attempts which is only 50% and 1 basket off a cut/offensive rebound/easy find around the rim when someone else gets doubled ...thats 7 points a quarter...the 3-4 rebounds a quarter will come so he could easily avg 28 14 and 3 blocks...come on........the fact dwights never avg 25 is a joke...

Dwight could have been better, if he just swallowed his ego and stopped thinking he had to be this offensive force on every team he was on. Imagine if he has just worked with Kobe, being humble and did was needed to be done SMH. However, Shaq needs o layoff, he is just pissa Dwight actually finally won a ring.
