    I feel like you should also include his sexual assault case against a man as well. Howard and his attorney claimed it was consensual. To the NBA, this just confirmed Howard is gay - and is also being used to blackball him. If he was still an All-Star, he would still get signed. But as a bench player, he's unlikely to retrieve a contract, even one for the veteran minimum.

    Dwight is overrated, but its due to the fact that there were no other elite centers during his era. All the beasts of the 90s and early 2000s retired or were on their way out; Olajuwon, Robinson, Ewing, Shaq, Mourning, Mutumbo, etc. Dwight had run of the league with nobody to stop him.

    How can he be one of the greatest if he had a whole arc of being not that good, the best players were almost always on top through their careers, longevity in greatness is important.

    As good as he was at his best, i think he contributed to the whole era of “post moves are inefficient and pointless.” He might have been the driving force behind that concept until it has been revived recently.

    i drafted Dwight Howard to my Expansion team in 2K alongside Dwyane Wade to form an iconic duo similar to Kobe-Shaq.
    it didn't work out for my team. lol. met a couple playoff appearances but no final appearances i think in that simulation run i was simulating and trying to adjust the roster drafting players surrounding them with "quality role-players" around the big 2 for my team. it still didn't end in success. couldn't get a 3 peat going like kobe/shaq did.
    i think i was missing a Derek Fisher like player for my Expansion team who can lead as a Lead Starting point guard for my team but could never find the right fit for the roster. i ended up ditching the team and drafting some other player in a different draft class after breaking up the duo that ended in zero championships for my team at least for that era of El Paso Basketball.

    The Lakers were not gonna be denied that championship that year. It was the same situation when the Heat beat the Thunder. Thunder & Magic were both good teams, but they were never gonna beat a hungry Laker or Heat team lead by Kobe & Lebron.

    I will always give Tim Howard credit for destroying LeChoke's psyche so much that he ran away to Miami.
