It'd probably be best if you read before quoting. I responded to a post that said 'Dre could be a 20 PPG scorer right now', plus adding there isn't much difference between Dre and Jordan at this stage. I wasn't arguing anything in regards to preference, I don't even know why you'd even bring that up - it had nothing to do with what I said.

You just creating shyt out of thin air.

And no Drummond isn't close to the player Howard was in Orlando, it's silly to even suggest he could put up similar numbers to Howard, in his current form.
howard avg 15 and 12 in orl his second year as main option on team built for him. Drummond is avg 12 and 12 on a horribly orchestrated team and his first year starting. Their talent and # are not that different. Drummond biggest problem is his garbage teammates.
I already said i misquoted, and skimmed over the 20pt thing:yeshrug:stop getting so emotional.

:what:

Howard wasn't capable of putting up 20 PPG in his second year though, just like Drummond isn't able of doing it now. When Howard did put up those #s, he was leaps and bounds a better player. I'm not saying that Drummond won't be able to put up those type of numbers eventually, I'm saying he isn't capable of doing it right now.

In his second year was Francis still there, cuz if so I doubt he deferred to Dwight.

I'm the only one who sees Drummond's ceiling as Orlando Dwight? I know people, including myself, like to hate on Dwight but Detroit would be ecstatic for Drum to reach his level. I certainly don't see him becoming some all world center.

I didnt like Davis coming out but he looks like the real deal.

if Drummond becomes anything like Orlando's Dwight then it would be a success story for him, but he won't get there on that horrible post game of his.

I been watching a lot this year, AD is the same "MOLD" of player as nikkas like Stromile Swift, Tyus Thomas, ect. He is just lot better than those dudes, which means a lot, but he has strengths that 10-20 other players have had over the last 15 years.
