I'm glad Dwight got himself a championship. Dude was so dominant in the post. He needs more respect on his name. Him not being put in the Top 75 list was crazy.
He Kinda didn't get a Chip. He was not even 4th Man on that Squad.

@@andretarrobal1964 Vince Carter was a dunking highlight reel but Dwight Howard wasn't trying. The combo of his height and jumping ability was something else.
Honestly man, y'all just use words cause they sound cool. Unstoppable? I love Dwight but the dude never averaged more than 22 points a game. Ewing Hakeem, Kareem, Robinson, and Shaq all did at least 26 ppg. Dwight never got close to that.
Those back surgeries really robbed him of being one of the best to ever play the game & I’ll always stand by that. Dwight was 1 of 1. Athletes who go through serious injury understand, you’re never the same.
the problem is that he couldn't adjust. Chris Paul had a knee injury early in his career that took his athleticism, but he learned how to adjust and still dominate
LMAO Dwight worked very hard before the injuries. Yes he was limited offensively, but that limit carried him to the Alltime leader in dunks. The injuries he wasn't allowed to properly heal from hurt his career, not his work ethic. NBA's only 3x consecutive defensive player of the year and you smear him like this. Defense is nothing but hard work and effort
people without back issues can't understand how much it changes your life, let alone playing professional basketball. Add the shoulder injury, etc. He still contributed after that.
Dwight will NEVER be in discussion with those guys, buddy did it to himself, top 75 snub whatever, he will always be the center who dominated for 5 seasons than ruined his own damn legacy
He doesn’t get nearly the credit he deserves. He brought the Magic to the Finals and won a game against Kobe’s Lakers average 20 and 13 with 3 blocks that year. 3 DPOY’s. Man is a legend.
I still remember when Dwight came into the league and took everyone by storm! There was nobody who could physically stop him...folks later calling this man overrated post-injuries smh. Bro was a menace in the NBA.
People like to clown Dwight, forgetting dude had to totally reinvent himself after the back surgery. Respect for carving a new path, plus getting that ring along the way.
One of the most underrated players of all time he probably should have won a mvp he was a 3 time dpoty one of the greatest at that side of the court ever and actually led a team to the finals as a the best player with really not the greatest help ever
This league did Dwight Howard dirty as far as the false calls of fouls they would call on him, to slow down his legacy and what he was trying to pursue. That's where the spiral FIRST began. I remember seeing it first hand. They did the same to Shaq, but he was able to exceed past the BS, and became the extended legacy that he is now. I wish it wouldn't have gotten to Dwight and he was able to continue to fight for what he was fighting for as a great player. His legacy didn't last as long as he wanted, but he is STILL a legend none the less. They tried the same with Iverson with the false carry calls, and no foul calls when he got hit, because they didn't like his street image and, "so called", attitude. He was passionate abt the game and they hated the possibility of someone with HIS stature and size, passing MJ as a player and legal name merchandise provider. The carry was considered an underhand call, which is rare, but the extended to the side call never was; And later became an attack on JUST Iverson. Cause even Kobe and guys like White Chocolate copied the same crossover and almost NEVER got called for it. These players all said, they looked up to A.I. skills. His nickname is A.I. same as Artificial Intelligence for a reason. The Universe don't miss, but we as ppl do with our purposeful mistakes according to incorrect emotional transition. He had big hands, so his crossover was an amazing side extended trickery that refs later admitted, and one wrote a book abt and was charged with.
I truly believe that D Howard here when he spoke and said he has spent his whole nba career looking up and over his shoulder at other big dudes who dominate and make others their bitch. First truthful thing I have heard him say in a interview. 🤣
People, Dwight Howard not being on the top-75 list or whatever that's called is not crazy or controversial, it's not rigged or biased against him. He was never the guy you're talking him up to be. Dude was a freak of nature and was carried by his athleticism, but not a great player overall.
His back injury took away his elite athletcism.. Orlando had the best version of him by far ..When he got to LA the 1st time his back was messed up already.
They wanted to call this guy mentally soft. He had back injuries during his LA run and he was trying to fight through them. That’s where that narrative came from. Never was the same physically as Orlando Dwight again. I’m happy he was a pivotal piece in that 2020 Lakers run. Still deserved top 75 player all time honors.
@@cosmicabyss7358 should I send you a clip of him hitting 5 threes in a row during warm ups I mean he’s a center should a center be hitting 3s? Your a fool
Dwight could’ve surpassed Shaq and Wilt as one of the best centers of all time. But he didn’t have that work horse mentality. He never went the extra mile and put in the extra work needed to be a legend. He got content and you can tell he stopped taking the game seriously.
My favorite Dwight Howard version was the Bubble Dwight Howard. So focused and no distractions. He was so hungry that time. Imagine if he had that bubble mentality all his career.
The lack of maturity held Dwight back from becoming who he says he was. Undoubtedly Top 75 All Time IMO, BUT, he could’ve cemented his legacy by being more serious
as underrated and disrespected Dwight Howard is as an all time great, anyone who thinks he was catching or is anywhere near the same league as Wilt Chamberlain is underrating and disrespecting Wilt even more than Dwight could ever dream to be disrespected and underrated by anyone in history of the multiverse
Imagine Prime Dwight staying in Orlando , and maintaining how he was playing . He was changing the game fr . Nobody was scoring in his paint. I hate how it all changed

Lots of potentially great players have their careers cut short due to injury. Doesn’t mean they should all be in HOF.
the problem is that he couldn't adjust.
Chris Paul had a knee injury early in his career that took his athleticism, but he learned how to adjust and still dominate
The best center of his generation, Hall of famer for sure
Underrated for sure. He might have been funny af but he was definitely a beast and true center.
Dwight and the magic pulled off the biggest upset of the year when they beat Cleveland. They were complete underdogs coming out the east.
The Orlando magics Dwight Howard was a monster. I'll never forget how amazing that team was.
He was about to say "Shaq".😂
He did all that with a big ass smile on his face the whole time
Hard work beats talent when talent don’t work hard

The game changed on Dwight. Now people forget how much of a beast he was.
Dwight was literally unstoppable. If he could hit 70% of his Ft he’d probably avg damn near 30 a game. He was ORL defense.
Dwight was the biggest snub of the top 75 list. Him and Pau deserved to make it over several players who made it.
Magic DH was a MONSTER!
SUPERMAAAAN... as a Magic fan he's my 2nd favorite player ever behind T-Mac
Most underrated player ever, as a Heat fan Dwight was a dawg!

We witness him dominate, get better at free throws, go off the dribble at time, AND shoot from the elbow …. Like bro was really tryna be elite!!
Literally had nothing but athleticism. It's amazing why people hold him in such high regard.
Dude had nothing basketball worthy in his arsenal.
Dwight was a great player
Should’ve never left Orlando Dwight, and this is coming from a Knicks fan. That lived in the Orlando area at the time. Dude was a Beast.

48,000 rebounds later he’s a hall of famer
Huh? That's more rebounds than points Lebron has 😂 Dwight has 14k rebounds
If this was actually his mentality he would've dominated in Houston. Pity.
When you look at what Dwight does and has done, you realise he is definitely top 75
Orlando really had talents run through there over the years Dwight was the closest thing to Shaq back then hands 🫳🏾
The prime of Dwight Howard is very strong players.
Pure domination, Dwight was only second to Shaq in my opinion. No disrespect to Bill, Wilt, and the Dream. Prime Dwight was just different.
But when Kobe called him soft, all he did for the rest of his career was show us how soft he was .
Dwight deserves another chance fr he could come back and dominate again you never kno
Once the back goes...so does the career!!!
If his maturity would have matched his physical ability he would have been top 5
