Have of Howard's game and what really makes him good is his physicality that has nothing to do with polish
You basically took what I said about a few attributes and like a chick went to the extreme with it
Rik Smits did have more skill than Shaq
But the quality of big men are so low I really think Rik Smits if he played today would easily avg. 20 and 10
Dont get me wrong I was the main one speaking that Dwight should be considered for MVP every year but that is what the NBA does it loves to market the small guys over the big guys
Truth be told the lack of quality big men are the reason the NBA quality of play has went down

# 162 icemanfrost @ 09/19/12 01:06 AM

Why are people taking more polish means better player

You are more delusional than I thought to think that today Smits would be a 20 10 guy. The man's best rb season was like 7rpg. It has nothing to do with the era. The guys of the 90s and before were better post player and the shot blocking stats had more to do with the way the game was played (lack of zone). Rebounds not so much. Smits would be just as much of a stiff today as he was then. Dwight's physicality is a plus to his game but so is Hibbert's height. You are doing nothing for your argument man. In the end results matter. Dwight is a better offensive player in every sense of the word.

I just think people sometimes get lost in dunks and highlights
It like when people tell me shaq was a better center than hakeem and I tell them not only is hakeem is a better center but it pains me that nobody ever mentions him in the greatest players ever.

So you being a laker fan do you think steve nash should be rated higher than tony parker

No I didn't mean Rose wasn't valuable, sorry of it sounded that way.. I was just saying that CP3 is more so.. The Bulls are still a good team without Rose, not title contention good, but last seed playoff good.. While I highly doubt the Clippers without CP3 are a playoff team and I can for damn sure tell you his Hornets team wouldn't be lol

It's debatable though.. To someone who values championships Shaq would be the better choice. It's all a matter of opinion..

To me you have - Russell, Kareem, Wilt, Hakeem, Shaq - those 5 in no particular order.. Those are the top 5 to ever play the game as a Center.. Depending how you would order them is personal preference.. After those 5 however it's a huge drop off to the next guy in..

# 168 ojandpizza @ 09/19/12 04:18 AM

I wouldn't go as far to say Hibbert is a better offensive player than Howard but it really isn't a land slide like the Lakers guy is saying.. First of all, the reason Howard's % is so high is because literally almost every basket he scores is a dunk either from a good pass or an offensive board.. The guy literally has no post game or go to moves.. He often looks like he doesn't even know what to do with the ball when he has it..

Seriously teams don't even have to double him that much, somebody that big and that gifted should demand a constant double team..

I would choose Howard over Hibbert of given the option but trying to make Howard out to be such a great offensive player is a complete joke..

And I don't think Al Jefferson will become the best or even top 3 big men in the league BUT offensively he probably is the best big man in the league.. Laugh all you want but to those who actually watch basketball and know the game outside of highlight reels and "Kobe is the ish, or Griffin is the best PF alive" know what I'm talking about..

- I know I've posted like 4 times in a row now, sorry I'm on here using my phone..

But even with the arguments I said above I still feel that Howard at 96 and Hibbert at an 86 are both overrated..

# 170 DurtySoufReppin @ 09/19/12 04:20 AM

Marc Gasol is better than Roy Hibbert

I agree, outside of rebounding and blocking shots, Dwight is pretty average lol He has no real post game, cant shoot, and at this point only has the advantage due to his size and lack of talent in the rest of the NBA at the Center position. 92-94 is alright for Dwight since he is the best C in the game

Hibbert can be very good but right now I think the 86 is a bit generous

Somewhat. He's also very young, I see lots of potential in him crappy team or not.. You also have to take into consideration that playing for a crappy team can also hurt your numbers since everybody keys on you.. He doesn't have superstars around him to make his game easier..

Example- I don't think Harden would be near the player he is if he was on a crappy team as the go to guy.. Teams keying on stopping Durant and Westbrook is what makes Harden the player he is.. I said before the finals even started, if the Heat stop Harden they get a ring. That's exactly what happened, and he wasn't hard for them to stop at all..

Wrong, Hibbert averaged 2.0 blocks in less than 30 mpg, Dwight averaged 2.2 blocks in 38 mpg. I would say Hibbert was the better shotblocker last season

No ... Hibbert plays 29 minutes and gets 2 BPG, In an estimated 36 mins he would average 2.4 BPG.
Howard plays 38 mins. and gets 2.1 BPG and in the estimated 36 he would only average a solid 2

I wasn't not using values from last season..career averages.

Career averages don't mean anything (specially when one player is a 24 mpg career average player and the other one is a 36 mpg one. This is 2013 and the videogame we are about to play is nba 2k13, so if last season Hibbert was a better shotblocker the game should reflect that

Dwight Howard isn't a great defender either? Neither of those guys are, they are just both excellent at helping over and getting lots of blocks.. If you honestly think Dwight is a great low post defender you need to watch more basketball

In the four match ups against Roy Hiberrt Dwight dominated him. Here are Roys stats against Dwight. First Game: 5-16 FG 31.3% 16 Points Second Game: 3-8 FG 37.5% 7 Points Third Game: 5-11 FG 45.5% 10 Points Fourth Game 5-8 FG .62.5% 10 Points To say Dwight can't defend in the low post is to say that he can't dunk.

I'm not sure why you are posting Dwight vs. Hibbert match up numbers, I never once argued Hibbert was better or even as good. And those numbers average out to 10.75 PPG, while Hibberts career average is 11.1, that's really not hindering his performance much at all..

Howard is an exceptional defender, amazing in the help side and being pretty much the only dominate big man around right now is a huge intimidation factor. Pretty much the only big man right now who can change the way teams run their offense.. How ever his low post defense (on the ball) isn't that good, it's just average. And doesn't have the best footwork on D, bites on fakes, you don't see it much because teams don't utilize big men offensively the way they used to, but it's definitely there if you are willing to look past your highlights.

# 179 RedSceptile @ 09/19/12 12:00 PM

Dwight is a product of a dead position. I respect him but his abilities are vastly overshadowed by a lack of true pivots in the NBA. Can't hate the man for being born in pretty much the perfect era for his skillset (or lack of however people see it).

I said footwork while playing 1 on 1 defense in the post not foot work in general
