    I was about to post has there been any player who has fallen off of a cliff so far as D12?

    But you summed it up nicely.

    Personally speaking...? No. He's been reduced to a journeyman player at this point. Sadly, irrelevant and mostly forgotten. Kids everywhere.

    So basically play that Tyson Chandler role for the 2006 Mavs Kobe wanted you to play back in 2012. A little late for that, Dwight.

    Isn't he embarrassed to admit it has taken this long to realize what he's saying? Maybe not if it's all happy talk to get signed on again somewhere. Clown.

    Howard could be...if he knew how to pass, had innate court vision, awareness, b-ball IQ and be selfless to what's good for the team. Yep, I can see it happening.

    i'd say he's a borderline HOF case

    was dominant in orlando but his career downward spiral began as soon as he had back surgery and the subsequent trade to LA. he showed flashes of what he was in orlando during his time in LA and houston but he was never the same player again. now he's a 33 year old journeyman C who's been decimated by injuries and has trouble finding a team. he was actually pretty good with the hornets a couple seasons ago but its safe to say he's close to being done at this point

    his game relies on nothing but strength. he's got no back to the basket game and terrible footwork. he was so dominant in orlando because of how strong he was and now that he's had so many injuries he can't outmuscle guys anymore

    I don't trust that source.

    I also don't want Dwight back even if he was alright last year.

    When we are focusing on a championship, do we really need our players spending all of their spare time tracking down action on Hollywood Blvd?

    I don't buy the rumor.

    If Dwight really wanted to be here this season, he should have contacted the team before we signed Boogie and McGee. Does he want to be a 3rd stringer? I doubt it.
