dwight howard is VERY VERY good. i dunno, i'm not sold on his offensive game though. i wanna see Dwight carry Orlando on his back over Bynum and beat the Lakers or send a message, but he's damn good. of all the players you could build around in the league, i'd take him very early on, maybe take Bron or Paul, but he's definitely up there. it's scary he's so young. but i think he needs to have a coming out party in the playoffs before he's compared to the greats.

Whats not to sell on his offensive game? He averaged 21 points and 60% shooting last year--this year up to 25 now shooting better than 60%. Best rebounder since Rodman and blocks shots like Hakeem and he will get you 23-25 points at 60%+--what else to say--think about this--he is 25-30 pounds heavier than Patrick and 5 times more athletic.
I'm not sure he is better than David Robinson and he has not yet reached the Shaq or Olajuwan level.
Great player yes, all time great, not yet.
oohah
