Look at his stats and accolades when he played on the Magic. He was unstoppable. 3x DPOY, 6x All Star, 5x All NBA 1st team, 4x All defense 1st team, 1x All defense 2nd team, and 4x rebound champ. Stats: 18.4 ppg 12.5 rpg 1.5 apg 2.2 bpg 1.0 spg 57.7% FG 58.8% FT. 98 Def rating
These stats are better than Anthony Davis’s on the pelicans. Much better. I’m here from the future to tell you that Howard was snubbed from the nba top 75 list, while ad was on
Lots of wishes with this team. Wish they let SVG go Wish they didnt let go of Turk Wish they didnt trade Rashard but if they did Wish Gil was still playing like an all star Wish they kept gortat Wish they had more vets to help Dwight and his habits
Dude's athleticism was insane. We didn't know how well we were blessed to see Orlando Magic Dwight Howard play cause he was flying every night like it was nothing.
In addition to being skillful in sports, he is also a very kind person, always wearing a smile. That's why I like him. He doesn't have a celebrity attitude.
because he was so much more. One those type of players thats always goofing around and not concentrate on the game and his fellow teamates puts so much time into the gym and this guy dont even try and they felt like he was wasting their time. Imagining going to work and you have that one co-worker that just goofs around all day long at first its cute but it gets aggravating during crunch time when you got a presentation due soon and you have this guy distracting u.
He didn't make it the top 75 team, but westbrick and unibrow did........ also saw like 5 or 6 old timey big men on there that would be losing sleep the night before a game against howard haha.
Beats almost everyone down the floor, jumps higher too, can stay in front of guards, stronger than even the biggest 7 footers, and if he doesn't dunk on you or block your shot the first time his 2nd/3rd jump is probably the best in nba history. Craziest thing is now we know he's only 6'9". Was absolutely insane to watch. One of the real kind of archetypes for a player that captured you're imagination. Glad he's got that freak athlete thing like lebron where their "losing a step" is still being more athletic than 95% of the league.
I tuned out of the NBA when he was in his prime. What happened to him once he got to LA because when I started paying attention again I didn’t see this Dwight Howard.
That 2009 ECF was so entertaining. I know it only went 6 games, but we got plenty of Prime Dwight and Young Lebron highlights. Edit: I’m also really sad that the Orlando team collapsed after.
I miss this version of Dwight Howard. He’s so different now. He used to be quiet and all he did was killed it on the court. Now he got his hair different with tattoos and he’s very talkative and political.
I think dwight howard woyld be the perfit fit for the cleavland caves caues he wantes a ring he lost against koby in 2009 but if you can get that spark going a true light will shine, lets get this to lebron, keven durent will not be coming to the paint anymoore new cavalier 2018 dwight howard!
Miss this Dwight
Keaton McDermott i'm just assuming you're a magic fan but would u be okay with him coming back
its like watching a completely different player now :(
Hop on the 76ers bandwagon we got room 💪🏽

@@williamanderson7594 ^ this right here
Who thought he would be the new Shaq when he was with this team
X_swag All day he was amd left the magic for the lakers
Cameron Giffin all for a ring he never got
Would have been an even better shaq
He blew past shaq in orlando...
The back injury ruined him
Howard was unstoppable during his Magic days.
Wish he never left orlando
You mean you wish he never hurt his back! If he wouldn’t of hurt his back he would of been diffrent
SVG should’ve gone, not Dwight
Lots of wishes with this team.
Wish they let SVG go
Wish they didnt let go of Turk
Wish they didnt trade Rashard but if they did
Wish Gil was still playing like an all star
Wish they kept gortat

Other than bron and Giannis Dwight is the other freak of nature
In addition to being skillful in sports, he is also a very kind person, always wearing a smile. That's why I like him. He doesn't have a celebrity attitude.
I miss this Dwight 😞
did he just do an alley oop buzzer beating game winning shot over tim duncan and the spurs?!?!?
HE’S BACK BABYYYYY
Man I remember when I was young and seeing him take the Magic to the finals. He was a beast!
Just saw the first game Dwight Howard played in Taiwan, it was a came-from-behind win, incredible. He’s still got it !
Idk why he got all that hate from fans in NBA still one of my favorite centers all time
because he was so much more. One those type of players thats always goofing around and not concentrate on the game and his fellow teamates puts so much time into the gym and this guy dont even try and they felt like he was wasting their time.

guest man he did work hard, he just joked around a lot
Charlie Black nope. He only took it serious towards end of his career bc he needed bread. He’s lazy and soft. Same moves from orlando till now
This Dwight was really dominant on a basketball court.
Thanks for this video .. my childhood superman 😭
My favorite player after Kobe at the time!! people forgets greatness this guy was the the big deal before his back injury 3x dpoy
This man is top 75 all time
He didn't make it the top 75 team, but westbrick and unibrow did........ also saw like 5 or 6 old timey big men on there that would be losing sleep the night before a game against howard haha.
@@PhooPhooMagoolol facts
Would have been too 10 or Center if he never hurt his back.
@@PhooPhooMagooyou forget how good mvp westbrook was?
Best of Dwight
This howard is a monster
I wish the 2008-2009 Magic were on NBA 2K.
4 starters are on the all time team at least
Orlando should sign him to a 1 year contract and have him play with them young boys in Orlando and go out with a bang
Look at this dominance woww
Bro this is put together perfect!👍🏽
man what happened this guy was the next best thing since shaq
Joe Taylor back injuries
@@Tomatobasil-v9y Damn, back injuries. Never knew how it could really bother and affect us greatly until I experienced and felt it myself
@@Tomatobasil-v9y and desire/confidence but the back injuries probably caused that
Definitely the back injuries were a major part, but I think he also couldn’t take the pressure of being a Laker.
@@neilwagner3313back injuries. His legs were numb & he tried to come back from surgery too quickly & it messed him up
Orlando Magic Dwight Howard was a beast. When got with the lakers it went all down hill from there. Definetly an all time great magic
Glass cleaner Athletic finisher
Traevo my build in 2k18 lmao
QuirkyKian ayeee same
Nice song! I see you with the I'm good instrumental.
Dwight is the most athletic big man all time
RIP
That game winner alley oop dunk put him in the hall of fame !!!!!!!
Dwight was fuckin unstoppable
DWIGHT IS BACK IN THE LAKERS BRUH. IAM FROM THE FUTURE THIS BROTHER IS THE NEW MVP DPOY
I miss this Dwight Howard
Could’ve been one of the greats, was my favorite player... what a shame

Oh how soon they forget
Damn!
I miss him
I wish we would have got this Dwight in L.A.
So strong!after he was traded..he's never been the same..
His back injury is what changed him.
one of a kind centre since Shaq.. wish if there could be someone this strong, jumps this high and plays incredible post moves foday T.T
I tuned out of the NBA when he was in his prime. What happened to him once he got to LA because when I started paying attention again I didn’t see this Dwight Howard.

Edit: I’m also really sad that the Orlando team collapsed after.
The man basically ruined his career when he left Orlando
The back injury ruined him
well he got a ring now
I honestly thought that his career was already done fore
But he still holding it well good for him
Good times
He was the face of Adidas basketball shoes during his time in Orlando.
charlotte is going good for him so far, Orlando was his best
This version of Dwight would have a ring or two much sooner with Chris Paul's assistance.
How are the 2008-2009 Magic not on 2K?
Bro if you actually think about it,the magic have some great players in their history
Bron really had to form a super team to beat Dwight an a bunch of old heads in Boston 💀💀💀
champion
He should've stayed with the magic
My favorite player of all time hands down
Give some credit to Hedo, he's dynamic duo with Howard.
How they retire Shaq number in Orlando but him now that’s just down right disrespectful lol
Now i know why Shaq hated Dwight because he's JEALOUS!!
In a league of the best athletes, Dwight made them look like little kids.
Dwight was the goat then
No offense but this version of Dwight would easily beat Jokic, Giannis and Embiid 💪🏽
I miss this version of Dwight Howard. He’s so different now. He used to be quiet and all he did was killed it on the court. Now he got his hair different with tattoos and he’s very talkative and political.
That back surgery ruined his career smh
Too bad he got injured and kept listening to the analysts
Rip Superman
Dwight Howard should’ve been on that NBA 75th Anniversary Team. How can you not include this dude, total DISRESPECT.
What happened to this monster? :(
Not the best magic player of all time but definitely the greatest
Nice video but I expected to see more than one block.
Prime for prime one of the best centers of all time
Used to be the best center in the league
*wipes tears
You know if Dwight never gotten traded he would still be the same right his back injury and his other injury fucked him up
I think dwight howard woyld be the perfit fit for the cleavland caves caues he wantes a ring he lost against koby in 2009 but if you can get that spark going a true light will shine, lets get this to lebron, keven durent will not be coming to the paint anymoore new cavalier 2018 dwight howard!
Eric Lewis nigga can’t spell 😂
Eric Lewis woyld
perfit
Cleavland
Caues

Koby
Keven durent
Anymoore.
This Dwight> AD
DH12 would of ate Embid for Breakfast in his prime ...
Hello Lakers Fans
Who you pick Dwight or Gianiss in their prime ? LETS NOT UNBIAS
Best part of this was the dimes by hedo turkoglu
So basically Blake Griffin/Shaq
superman
@:07 That should've been Dwight's game.
If he would got with lebron early chips
Paul gasol shut down howard in playoff s
no heart
After the back injury he was never as athletic.
damn he really did get so soft compared to here
Jokic still better
Sad how soft dude is now!
he should have never left orlando
One trick pony
