Dwight Howard......

Re: Dwight Howard......

Bosh's offensive game is more polished.
Howard is a better rebounder and overall defender.

It's not a slam dunk in Amare's favor.

id take howard over amare. no question.

Re: Dwight Howard......

This is from InsideHoops.com:


"Shaquille O'Neal, who still has designs of someday being Orlando's owner/general manager when his playing days are over, seemed to endorse the Magic's potential trading of guard Steve Francis. O'Neal's reasoning? (Shaq) said that keeping Francis around will only ****** the growth of second-year power forward Dwight Howard. O'Neal has gushed about Howard's potential, calling him the kind of player the Magic should build their franchise around." Florida Today

"As long as Steve Francis is there doing what he's doing, Dwight Howard won't get any better," O'Neal said before Sunday's All-Star Game. "I'm not saying (Francis should be traded), but you know . . . He's gotta get the ball. "He doesn't need to be groomed, he needs to be fed. He's gotta get the ball. All that (Francis') dribbling between the legs, I don't know." Florida Today

Even Shaq says trade Francis for Dwight's benefit.

Okafor was a far better college player than Howard........

Seriously, I don't remember too many people ever saying Okafor would actually be a better pro.

Re: Dwight Howard......

I wouldnt worry about Howard's shooting range and jumpers. You have to understand not not far removed from 4 years of HS basketball where the preobably just focused on his "big man" game. He just like KG did will develop that jumper and some range. I agree he's going to be a bigger stronger KG. Hes got court smarts too. Fundamentally the kid is already rock solid. He's already got a gave like Tim Duncan but a little more versatile. Its scary, hes only going to get better and with all the European big men that NBA teams went draft crazy over in the past 3 or 4 years (which almost all of them suck and have not measured up) Howard will be the premiere big man in the leage by the time he's 25.

I think that some college players just dont measure up in the NBA to to what they did in college. Im not saying Okafor is a bust..oh by no means. Hes going to get better, probably ALOT better but if they were both on my roster and I could only start one.. Howard getst he start. Howard to me is just a more versatile player and he came into the NBA better a player than Okafor did coming from college. Orlando needs to get a PG in there who KNOWS HIS ROLE and feed Howard the ball just like Shaq was saying....and people wonder why on NBA 2k6 right out the box they have howard rated an 86 which is daaaaamn good.
