How greatly would Dwight Howard's Legacy have been improved if he had won a Title in 2009 and picked up Finals MVP? What about if he won MVP in 2011? So does he become a Top 10 Center All-Time? Is he already a Top 10 Center All-Time? Is he closer to Top 5 on the Centers List? How would this help his overall ranking? Would be become top 30? Top 20? Answer what you think would happen if he won a FMVP with no MVP and vice-versa or if he picked them both up. Lastly how would Kobe's Legacy be effected with a loss to Orlando in 2009?

dwight howard might be the worst center ever to be CONSIDERED a perennial all-star player year in and year out. with that being said....he deserves credit for "revolutionizing" the center position into an uber athletic run up and down the floor and catch lobs position that requires no skill or fundamentals.

nowhere near top 30 player. if he had won a ship and the mvp i think he would be treated kinda how peyton manning is being treated in the nfl....great regular season player that broke through one time to win it all. even tho peyton manning is a waaaaaay better qb than dwight is a center.

dwight isnt and will never be considered a top 10 center unless he can win a few rings between now and the end of his career.

if kobe lost in 2009 he still won in 2010 so his legacy wouldnt be tarnished that much IMO. 3 str8 finals appearances.

Even an MVP or Finals MVP wouldn't put him Top 10?

Definitely think he has no Offensive Game and some of his Defensive Game comes off of Athleticism. He isn't really skilled as big.

I thought his Accolades would push him higher in some people's rankings.
