Dwight Howard. Look were he's at now already in his career. He's still young. yeah I know Amare is too but Dwight has tons of upside.
Dwight Howard's the best out of those 3, just for the Superman Dunk alone. lolNext Arguement: Whos the best of these 3?
Dwight Howard
Amare Stoudamire
Kevin Garnett
You're right, Knicklover but they voted Dirk, last year, after his team got knocked out in the first round. How do you explain that? Lebron clearly should've won it. MVP's don't lose in the first round.
Stoudamire=Jared Jefferies with skills
Garnett=Celtic
**Howard=Superman**
anybody ever think what if atlanta drafted chris paul????dat is scary
all tall and skinny and shitjared jefferies with skills???? doesnt make sense at all....Amare n jared shud never b in the same sentence unless u say amre dunked on jefferies.....i wonder how ppl would respond to this question b4 all star break....KG is still the most complete player in the nba
Sometimes opinions are accepted but not when your talkin about facts

Next Arguement: Whos the best of these 3?
Dwight Howard
Amare Stoudamire
Kevin Garnett
You're not talking about facts, you make no sense.
K.G. by far is the best of those 3. Howard and Stoudemire each need to greatly improve their defense before they could be put in Garnett's class.
KG is the best but not by far, Dwight is just as good/better defensivley then KG.
Oh really just as good you say? Man oh man are you lost...
Here are some Stan Van Gundy quotes From Feb 11 on Dwight Howard and his d. Stan Van Gundy by the way is Dwight Howard's coach in case you didn't know.
"His focus isn?t where it needs to be. I don?t think, right now, we?re on the same page to be quite honest. I think his priorities need to be defense and rebounding. We?re 22-2 when he blocks three shots or more and he?s got five blocks in the last six games so he?s not focusing on coming to help.
He had 23 15-plus rebounds in the first 41 games and he has one in the past 12 games. He didn?t even have a double-figure rebounding game (on Monday). It?s a matter of focus and his focus is on the offensive end and he gets discouraged when he doesn?t get the ball. I don?t think, I know, that the numbers prove that what we need him to focus on to win is defense and rebounding. But that?s not what he wants to do right now, so we have a little bit of a conflict."
Van Gundy even went so far as to bench his franchise player as a result of his lack of defensive effort and intensity. To Dwight Howard's credit he not only took being called out in stride but also agreed with his coach.
"I get frustrated a little bit, but I have to do what?s right for our team. I need to do what will help our team win, which is rebound, play great defense and be active. I know that. I?m not worried about him sitting me down. His point was that he needs me to play hard so that my teammates see me playing hard. If I?m not playing hard and doing the things the team needs, we?re not going to win. To help the team I have to step up every night and be the catalyst at both ends of the floor.??
Then this past week after being matched up with Chris Bosh and having Bosh eat his lunch, Van Gundy said after the game that "Bosh destroyed Howard".
More Van Gundy thoughts after the Magic played the Raptors...
?There was not one thing they did that we could guard. Chris Bosh we could not guard, we didn?t have anybody that could guard him, we?ll have to think about double-teaming him next time. I thought Dwight (Howard) could guard him a little bit but he obviously could not. We could not guard (Jose) Calderon on the pick-and-roll at all and we did not close out on their shooters. There wasn?t one thing we did defensively tonight that impacted them whatsoever. We didn?t have much trouble getting good shots and scoring, that?s not the issue against this team. We?ve got to be able to guard them, we could not and end of story"
So MSG when it comes to comparing KG and Dwight Howard as defensive players and saying something as retarded and ignorant as Howard is just as good as Garnett it is you that needs to get the fuck outta here.
You came with some good stuff, but it still doesnt prove that KG is a better defender then Dwight Howard. The only thing you proved is that Dwight is in a slump, happens to most players at one point during the season.
idk what ya talking about but i'll take KG today over dwight howard easy, KG's intesity and pride can't be measured, he's hungry for a Ring, and KG play 150% every possession
Unless your name is Isiah Thomas it takes a lot more then a 'slump' for an NBA
coach to call out their franchise player like that. Howard must have been a dog on d more often then not for Van Gundy to rip him publicly like that.
You're hot stuff MSG I gotta hand it to ya, you just never back down no matter how wrong you are. So go ahead and believe that Dwight Howard is almost as good as KG defensively, I mean really some people also believe Jesus is coming back to earth this year ya know?
Also if you recall I believe last season even Eddy Curry had some huge games against Howard :lol:. Speaking of Curry and Howard, Dwight may not play much d right now but I guarantee you that with a coach like Stan Van Gundy and tutor like Patrick Ewing it won't be long before he becomes a beast on the d. Meanwhile Isiah and his minions I don't think have spent an hour with Curry trying to motivate him and teach him to play d. Eddy Curry is awful but he should not be this bad. Another reason why Isiah is a horrible coach.
