    lol yup. i remember when he was drafted he said he wanted to change the NBA logo so that it included a cross

    here's a good article on him from 04 that talks about all that

    the list of people who publicly espouse traditional or religious beliefs while privately engaging in the antithesis is quite long--so long that one wonders if freud was onto something in this particular case.

    and i'm not making value judgments on howard's personal life, just saying as you did that it's definitely NOT what strict reading of the bible would prescribe.

    Dwight trolling or submitting a résumé today?





    And before the responses...No he's not the answer. No he's not playoff eligible. Yes he's cooked. We don't play Joker, Sabonis, Embiid, Nurk, or Zu again this regular season so no point in even a 10-day.

    I think he’s a possible net negative in the locker room these days based upon off court activities. No serious contender has any desire to play with fire like that.

    we could do worse and have

    but I have a feeling there's a reason he wasn't invited back. Maybe he stared too long at Austin's junk and Bron didn't like that.

    **Allegedly**

    "bring back dwight" is the new "bring back phil" huh?

    anyone who thinks 2024 dwight howard would've been the difference between the lakers beating denver is absolutely clueless. yes, dwight played great defense on jokic in 2020 but jokic 1. has become better and 2. gets more favorable calls now. also, 2020 was 4 years ago and dwight was cooked his last season here
