Is Dwight Howard worth all the fuss?

Featured Replies

With there being a lack of quality big men in the league now my question is, "How good is Dwight Howard?" Is he really good or just good because he has no real competition? Is he worth all the attention and $$$ he'll be getting?

Best big in the NBA even though I find him wholly annoying. He can't win it by himself but if you surround him you can win the title.

Let me say what I just put in a different thread, just to be clear.

 

I hate Dwight Howard.

Now that I've said that, yes, he is worth it, he's a true difference maker, a guy that can be on a title team if paired with a scoring gaurd (my opinion). He's a stud.

 

Did I mention I hate this guy and his entire attitude over the past 2 seasons. He brings to mind words I don't say.

But is that like saying I'm the best power forward in my family? He's the best but how would he compare over the last 15 to 20 years? I personally don't see much skill in his game.

Doesn't matter how he would compare. He's playing today's centers.

While I understand that he is not as skilled as a Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson and Kareem, he did take a team to the Finals.

 

Hedo got paid off of playing with Dwight. Jammer Nelson made an all star team playing with Dwight. Anderson was lights out this year and a lot of those open jumpers came off of the defense collapsing on Howard. If he could do that for those guys, imagine if he played with DWill, Kobe or Carmelo?

 

He is worth it, IMO.

Just got this tweet from Ric Bucher

Source: With Nets out of equation, Mavs go to top of Dwight Howard's wish list. No other teams - Lakers included - on it. For now.

I'm not a huge fan of his game but he's the best center in the league so that has to count for something. I think he's a mental midget and that would worry me as a GM.

He and his 3 rings are definitely worth it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh....wait.

I'm not so sure. I think TB can pull you out on the floor and drive on you.

He somewhat reminds me of LeBron James. Physical freak that can load up on numbers and have a tremendous impact by just showing up to play. He has a lot of maturity issues. Not sure if that light switch will ever flip to on for this kid.

The trade being discussed right now is Howard to Brooklyn for:

 

Brook Lopez

Kris Humphries

Marshon Brooks

 

And Brooklyn's 1st round picks in 2013, 2015, and 2017.

 

He's not worth all that.

I don't see anything in the deal that would excite me. Lopez, ok whatever, other than that? The picks would be late (most likely).
