It would be nice if the fabricated vitriol reserved on this board for a 20-year-old rookie on a historically bad team would be directed at a clown like Dwight Howard.
I can't stand Howard. He's a pansy and a whiner. Prefer Okafor 100 times out of 100. How's that?
I think more like this:
If Danny wastes any cap space on the Houstomistake he will set the rebuild back by 5 years and I'll be calling for him to be fired
The naivety amuses me.
People have the hypothetical opportunity to take an almost historically great center who is a proven competitor (having led a mediocre team past Lebron and to the NBA finals), and who is still perfectly capable of dominating the game from three different angles (offense, defense, and rebounding) on the basis of character concerns...
But would turn that opportunity down in order to sign an overweight, poorly conditioned, unathletic big man who has the worst advanced stats of any player in the league at his position, who's basketball talent is completely one dimensional (post scoring), and who has already raised significant character concerns of his own.
Each to their own, but it's just amusing to me.
Given a choice of two "boneheads" (as it seems Dwight and Okafor both are at this point), I would choose the one who has proven he is a winner and can impact the game as a 2-3 dimensional player over the one dimensional prospect who's proven nothing. But that's just me.
