Can we talk about the impact of Dwight Howard for a second?

GS couldn't hurt them...

If OKC ACTUALLY starts moving the ball then they big men could be a problem in the playoffs...

Ibaka has a good face up game and is still a great post defender

Kanter has a very soft touch and can get whatever shot he wants on either block

Steven Adams is a certified goon and one of the biggest strongest dudes in the NBA period

Mcgary is morphing into that hustle player who is just in the right fukking place at the right fukking time all the fukking time...AND they already have Collison who has made his entire career of being that guy...so now they got two of them...

San Antonio just isn't making shots right now but they are still getting whatever shot they want...Duncan Splitter Diaw is still a 3 headed monster you don't want to bang with for 7 games and Baynes is turning into a goon...he pretty much single handily annihilated Phoenix in the post last night...had all 7 feet of alex len shook as fukk to do anything...had a 7 foot man constantly shooting floaters and hooks cause he was shook of going to the rim...

I shutter to think what Tyson Chandler would do to them without Dwight...dude would probably put up 20 and 20 a night...

Can you imagine would Blake and Deandre would do against them in a series without Dwight?

Houston balling now but when the game slows down yikes...

I forgot about Dallas :why:

I agree though. Dwight in the playoffs will be important...I just feel like with teams like OKC, GSW, SA and POR not relying on the inside too much that they would be fine against or not against Dwight.

someone made a thread suggesting that they would take him all time over Ewing...

At the very least that is going to change for SA and POR once the money season start...they are going to dump the ball in the post a ton...now they might not score out of all the time but they are going to play an inside out game...

OKC has the ability to do it now but both KD and Sabo are just going to jack a ton of shots and not run a real offense like they been doing so I wouldn't worry to much about them...

18-7 without him (losing to GSW twice, LAC twice, Portland, Dallas and Detroit)
22-11 with him. (losing to GSW twice :russ:, Orlando, New Orleans twice, Chicago, Washington, Memphis, San Antonio)

Even looking at the notable wins in both situations it doesnt seem like theres much of a difference. Now I'm watching this Cavs game and the Rockets are holding their own well.

So I ask...Does Dwight Howard even make a difference for this squad? What was the point of dashing Omer Asik for this nikka in the first place? :scust: Dwight might be the most overrated player in the league.

Got me wondering how this team would look with a better PG (Bledsoe maybe) and Omer Asik in the starting lineup.

They'll need him in the playoffs when the game slows down. That team is sneaky talented. Harden is having an amazing season, Ariza is really good, Josh Smith has been decent, Motiejunas has been good and Terrence Jones is back from injury and producing.

Doesn't surprise me at all that they're still winning, but they're not getting a ring without Dwight.

I think with a HEALTHY DWIGHT, he could neutralize Bogut and Houston has all the tools and deep enough bench to give GS problems and I think McHale could our coach Kerr in a seven game series.
