Alright, just some a few different things on different posts here:

1) First off, those dunks on that Youtube are sick as hell, but it would have yielded the same results as the sticker dunk, b/c it's hardly noticeable that he hits his head on the rim or kisses it.

2) TODAY, I'll take the Spurs over a team with Dwight Howard, just b/c they are so damn good. And TODAY, I would take Tim Duncan, b/c he is such a great damn winner, but tomorrow, I'm taking Dwight. He's gonna start embarrassing teams soon, and that includes Eddie, the guy who "Has his number." lmao at people who said that.

3) People might as well stop saying that Eddie has the skill and body to be as good as Dwight and Amare AND Emeka and eventually Bynum. Those 4 guys are workhorses and when they take the court, they have a killer instinct. Maybe nice guys off the course, but on the court, they instantly smell blood, they instantly become killers. If anyone senses this kind of presence and mindset from Curry, then they are beyond dreamers. I'd like to try the stuff they are taking.

4) You don't nescessarily have to have great offensive moves to be dominant. You just have to completely change the course of the games. Heck, I consider Marcus Camby to be dominant, and he has very little to offer offensively, besides being a good teammate, being smart and having a decent shot. Ben Wallace has and/or had NOTHING offensively, and I considered him to be dominant, back in his prime.

Dwight Howard is beyond Camby and Wallace though and that says a lot.

I cannot believe you mentioned Andrew Bynum as a killer. I'd like to try the stuff you are smoking.

Bynum averages a double double, but again lets get some perspective on that. He is a center, alongside 2 small fowards in Odom and Vlad Rad. A Vlad Rad who is averaging about 2 rebounds per game.

I like Bynum's progress, but he has done nothing to be mentioned alongside Amare, Howard and Emeka. Nothing.

Point number 1..... agree

Point number 2..... Who wouldn't take the Spurs they have the better team and arguably the better big man but not necessarily the most Dominant Big Man. Defensively Howard is better than Duncan and offensively Duncan is more polished fundamentally but they both played each other this yr and although Orlando lost due to the fact the Spurs are the more seasoned and experienced team.... Tim only beat Dwight in the ast column while Howard beat him in both pts and blocks. And Orlando beat them once last yr

Point number 3.....agree


Point number 4.....agree and look at how many times he goes to the stripe, blocks, his manning of the interior, and how when the ball enters the post what usually results from it

I said eventually. I think he has shown flashes that he'll be there, and he's making very good progress.

Year 1: Could barely get off the bench.
Year 2: Got adjusted to getting some playing time in the NBA and at times, was quite productive but also established himself as a shotblocker.
Year3: It looks like he's established himself as a starter and it seems like he's a shoe in for a double double while being that shotblocker.

He's only 20 and in his 3rd year. He's doing quite well. He does have to establish himself offensively, but I see no reason why he can't at least be mentioned in the same sentence as as Amareka Boshard.

Dwight is by far the most physically dominant, but I bet Duncan and KG would beat him in a 7 game series right now.

Hopefully we get to see Orlando/Boston in the playoffs. That would be a treat.

I would rather see Knicks/Celtics or Knicks/Orlando in the playoffs. That would be a super treat.

Let's just hope we finish with the worst record in the league and get the #1 pick, okay?
