    He made a big difference at the rim. He and MG should be a solid duo defensively. Different game on O. So glad he came back. We really missed him last year.

    Hope all these new vets can all find their game here ....

    Coaches hate preparing to face a line up where a big like Dwight comes off the bench. His defense inside and blocking is huge.. I think we'd have stayed in the Pheonix series with him.. his energy is infectious and he left his ego behind a long time ago. I really enjoyed watching him and Caruso keep us in games during the championship season.

    Most likely that's a West Hollywood reference due to dawite's weird "injury" from 2 seasons ago and the video clip of dawite getting a little handsy with a teammate.

    Dwight Howard is a genetic freak. The amount of junk he has consumed and still have a physique like he does is pretty extraordinary.

    No one can drink like Kemp though. That's what killed his career

    really seems like that's the difference. i'm not sure i've seen a guy like kemp since in terms of grace/size/athleticism. the shaq/wilt of pfs. he just liked the sauce (and undoubtedly other stuff) and i think howard has generally been a teetotaler of sorts.

    honestly, even when kemp came back gigantic after the lockout, he was still pretty good until his body just gave out under the unnatural girth.

    So glad the dude’s back, and that I can call him Dawight some more. In fact, Dawight even passed my spellcheck from using it so much last time. The cosmos is in perfect alignment again.

    Read a story of how Jordan told Karl to ask Supersonics management to trade for Pippen in exchange for him, Ricky Pierce, and a draft choice.

    On topic: somewhere Jokic is saying "The Lakers got this guy...again?"

    Rebound, defend and stay out of self destructive tendencies like silly fouls, Ts, drama
