There’s only 1 active player in the top 40 for all time Rebounds and top 30 for blocks

[ChatGPT]

And that’s Dwight Howard, the next closest for rebounds is deandre Jordan and Lebron James and they’re at 49 & 50.

It’s damn near the same for Blocks too, Howard is the only one in the top 30.


Shouldn’t there be other big men that came in around or after 03 on that list

 

[Reggie]

Drummond will be on the rebounding list one day. But other than Dwight no big has come in and had an impact on the defensive end and the boards as long as Dwight did. Kevin Love is an exceptional rebounder of course but injuries and playing with Bron took his numbers down a lot too.

People forget about young Dwight and what a monster he was on defense

Howard is currently 15th all time in blocks.
He's 13th all time in rebounds.

Not sure why you used Top 40 and Top 30 to frame this. Maybe I'm looking at different numbers.
Yeah. Dwight Howard has been a good player. People like to trash him because of what might have been. But he's had a great career.

You think this was a knock on Howard

The way OP phrased it actually makes it sound crazier and more impressive.

like Dwight being the only active player in the top 15 all time is amazing.

but he’s the ONLY active player in the top 30/40 of those categories?


But using top 30 and top 40 we see that there’s no active player even AROUND Dwight

 

[Remote]

You think this was a knock on Howard

No.
I'm highlighting the fact that people tend to be surprised at how well Dwight Howard ranks in certain categories. And that surprise factor is because people perceive him to have had a disappointing career.

That's the whole point of your thread.

He won’t get to 20k, I don’t see him being a main focus on any team. He will have to focus more on defense to extend his career. He’s an all time rebounder though, I will give you that.
