Dwight's career may be over

[UK2K]

When there’s a cartilage issue in the knee and the words “bone on bone” are used, microfracture surgery is always feared.

Even if he comes back or gets it fixed, he'll never be the same. Maybe two decent years left if that.

[Practice?]

Should have found ways to rely on athleticism less.

[RightTwoCensor]

I'm not mad, I'm just proud we had the privilege to have him on Houston. His playoff performance vs. Portland is my favorite moment from past season's postseason. I loved that he shut up that far **** Shaq and Barkley.

He may not be the DPOY Candidate he usually was, but he still is a force in the paint.

Here's to you big guy.

[Real Men Wear Green]

I wouldn't say his career is over but this certainly heralds a change and a downward spiral. Unfortunately your two year prediction may be accurate and it could be an ugly two years (or more).

Details of the latest operation. (http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12277633/dwight-howard-houston-rockets-knee-procedure-re-evaluated-four-weeks)

It's a shame, if he doesn't have the knee issues Houston could have been a real contender. But when a guy whose game is 99% athleticism loses his knees? Not good.

[Lexington Steel]

Houston won't stand a chance in the playoffs now.

What's their depth chart looking like for their front court?

Dorsey/Terrence Jones
Motiejunas/Josh Smith

Oh shit. :roll:

Yep, I've loved the last two season with him on the team. Houston no doubt thought he'd have another 4-5 good seasons left, until he was in his early to mid 30's.

Maybe he will become healthy enough to make one final Hurrah! in the playoffs this season, but its hard to imagine this going over well enough to where he could still be an impact player by the time next season's playoffs roll around, if he even makes it that long.

Its up to Harden now. His time to make an MVP push. If Houston can retain HCA for the first round of the playoffs with the current line up, Harden will be MVP without a doubt. This team goes as far as he takes us.

Looking forward to the season post-ASB.

Unbelievable how you Houston fans have "loved" Dwight on your team even though he is a career loser who will never win anything, and not even top 150 all time talent wise. Someone as overrated as him...rofl...couldn't even get past the first round last year, and this is someone you build your team around??? rOFL. I guess you stupid texans like the fact that he chose to come to houston...oh well, I could have told you that you'd win nothing with him.

They're 11-5 without him and four of those losses came pre Brewer/Smith/Jones

The rockets are 3-1 minus Dwight after the addition of the above mentioned players.

I think a combo of DMo and Jones is sufficient if Harden keeps it up.

I don't think I have seen Neil Young when he was so... well, young.

[RightTwoCensor]

He has a post game, its just the the touches he gets and where he gets them. He killed Lopez with his trademarked jab step drives and spin moves, which all are so deadly because of how quick Dwight was in the 2014 Playoffs. I just hope he hasn't lost any speed. He may have to shade from the basket and make him self a jumpshooter like Blake is doing. I'm not sure if banging in the post night in and night out with this type of injury is best for his future.

[AirTupac]

That Rockets pick is gonna be tasty this year

[RightTwoCensor]

I do think he can suffice with half the athleticism he has now. With Motiejunas playing the way he's playing and our two athletic PFs coming off the bench we can probably lessen the responsibility Dwight has. Great shot blockers can block shots without 50% of their peak athleticism and I think Dwight can do the same.

[Practice?]

He may have to shade from the basket and make him self a jumpshooter like Blake is doing.

Don't worry folks, Dwight will be fine as long as he becomes a jump shooter. :lol

Yes, along with his iron will, never quit attitude, maturity, and laser focus he will rise to the top again.

[RightTwoCensor]

He's made jumpshots in-game on a handful of occasions since he was a Laker. His shot looks smooth just from that small sample size. Thing is that players won't even guard his shot, just like they didn't guard Blake's shot before this season.

I'm sure Dwight will cry himself to sleep that the Lakers chose that over him. :lol

[UK2K]

Eh, it's not like he's going to be unable to play. Duncan's knees have been bone-on-bone since 2010/2011 and he's been fine.

Well hes out at least 4 weeks, and then they're going to re-evaluate him, which means more than likely he'll miss at least six weeks.

So it is like he's going to be unable to play.

He's an 18 and 12 player now.

Thats not the issue. The issue is, defensively, Houston is among the league's best when he's on the court. Statistically, 2nd best. When he loses that athleticism, what's his defense going to look like?

Who wants a 14 and 9 player who shoots 55% from the FT line and plays mediocre defense?

Honestly, if he has a microfracture surgery he might as well take a ton of time off to let the new cartilage grow. He's young enough that he's not trying to make a push for a few remaining years (like Kobe, not trying to diss Kobe, but he's exploring all surgical options to make the most of the rest of his career). Dwight could take a year off, and maybe get another 4-5 years without horrible knee wreckage, as opposed to coming back ASAP and fighting the knee issues on and off until it's too much.

His defense won't be mediocre. He can still protect the paint against perimeter players and his post defense won't change a lick, in my opinion.

Deandre Jordan is a bad post defender and he's the most athletic center in the NBA.

Marc Gasol is a good post defender and isn't all that athletic.

Post Defense is probably 60% Defensive IQ, 30% Strength, 10% Athleticism.

Dwight won't lose all his quickness and leaping ability from this injury, probably only 20%-30% of it.

This is where having a reliable jump shot would come in handy... ala Kareem, Duncan, Robinson, Garnett, Mourning, Ewing, etc, ... Scoring is tougher when every shot (for all intents and purposes) has to be within 5 feet of the basket and he doesn't exactly have a plethora of moves or great handles (ie. it's mostly about strength, athleticism, quickness w/ him).

His natural talent was being a great athlete and blocking shots. He won 3 Defensive Player of the Year Awards, led the league in RPG 5 times, led the league in BPG 2 times just from "natural talent". If he were anymore dominant he'd the GOAT of this generation.

Saying his career is over is hyperbole.

He's a career 18/12.9 guy and his peak reg season was only 22.9 a game. His offensive game has been the same for 10 years. His best FT shooting year was his rookie year (the only time he shot above 60%). He was arguably the most athletically gifted big man of all time (I think he as the highest recorded leaping reach). He was supposed to be like Shaq or better.

If Dwight had a great touch, could turn over both shoulders, and make 60% of his FTs he'd average 28/15 during his peak years in Orlando. He would make make the Finals every year from 2009-2011 and probably would win in 2010 and 2011. He'd win the MVP in 2010 and 2011. He'd probably would have never left Orlando because of how weak the East during that time and the fact that his team would be so successful that SVG and Dwight would never have had their beef.

That's...

3x Eastern Conference Champion
2x NBA Champion
2x Finals MVP

[SCdac]

In his far and away best individual season he couldn't even beat out Derrick Rose for MVP and his team crumbled in the first round to the 44-win Hawks... Idk, I think outside of awards his supposed "dominance" is debatable for sure... We could "coulda woulda shoulda" all day, but he is who he is. An incredibly athletic big who can clean up around the basket, block shots, etc, but has rudimentary post moves, no elite playmaking skills from the post, he's turnover/foul prone with no real jumper.

You could say this about any superstar. If Dwade had a perfect jumpshot he would be the goat.


Shit if Roy Hibbert had perfect touch, could turn over both shoulders and half of Dwights athleticism he'd have a similar fantasy resume.
Dwight could of been more dominant by simply accepting his rol and not bitching about touches and trying to force his way to a better situation and generally by not being and immature idiot and distraction for the team.

In reality he didnt ****en dominate anything. Jordan and Shaq were dominant, Dwight was more dissapointing if his career ended today.

Dwight is not to blame for losing that Hawks series, he averaged 27 15 on excellent efficency.

As for him not winning mvp over Rose who really cares? Thats a narrative driven media award and dwight was clearly the better player that season if you knkw anything about bball. So i guess Rose was also better than Lebron, Wade and dirk that season by your logic.

Even if he comes back or gets it fixed, he'll never be the same. Maybe two decent years left if that.

Dumbass Rockets coach should've sat him down with a fake injury before the Allstar break like they originally planned to do. Hell, they were winning without Dwight the first time he got injured during the regular season. That's why the Spurs are still champions till this day, because they rest their best players throughout most of the regular season.
