Ex Laker ATG Blasts Dwight Howard

[Mr. Philadel]

Kareem was mostly right, but he did say some stupid things as well. Not being able to shoot free throws means you have a low IQ? So Shaq had a low basketball IQ?

Also, the Magic didn't lose to the Lakers because of Dwight. They lost because the Lakers were way better.

Shaq was a good passer.....Shaq knew how to think in the post...Dwight can do neither....he sucks in the post and that has alot to do with his basketball IQ...maybe a couple years of NCAA ball would've made him as smart as Shaq was

[Left Hook Tua]

He fooled everyone in los angeles except for you.

actually that was a big story in l.a.

and reading/hearing all these writers/sportscasters in l.a. is how i found out the truth.

i'm from l.a., you hear/read/see lakers everyday in l.a.

KAREEM'S "COMPLAINTS/CONTROVERSIES" WITH LAKERS A COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE HIS DOCUMENTARY'S NETFLIX DEBUT:

the statue - lakers told him his statue will be erected next season MONTHS BEFORE his complaint. he was gonna get it sooner but chick hearn died so they did chick's statue before him

coaching salary cut - after a year training andrew bynum, bynum couldn't stand him and refused to work with him. lakers kept him on payroll for years at a reduced salary WHILE HE DID NOTHING

lakers plane seating - lakers charter a plane. they don't fly economy class on southwest. don't know wtf he was crying about

lakers playoff shares - lakers players vote on whick trainers/coaches get a cut of the playoff bonuses. it wasn't lakers front office decision. SINCE HE WAS GETTING PAID FOR DOING NOTHING WHY WOULD LAKERS PLAYERS VOTE FOR HIM TO GET A BONUS? of course they'd hook up trainers/coaches who helped them more.


kareem was an ungrateful whore who badmouth lakers org to get an extra buck for his documentary release.

That's my point, though. Kareem said that if you never learn to shoot free throws, you can't have that high a basketball IQ. A lot of great big men sucked at shooting free throws. Do they all have low basketball IQs? Shaq was a liability in the 4th quarter too because of free throws, and no one would ever say he had a low basketball IQ. Except maybe Kareem.

I don't know what happened to Dwight the last couple years. His next to last season in Orlando, he was great passing out of the post, he developed a couple of post moves, he even had a jump shot he could hit. He has been sulking and b*tching since and his game has regressed. Houston is perfect for him, if he messes this up he's going to be looked at harshly, and deservedly so.

Subjects I know nothing about? The entire premise of your argument is based on an assumption built upon another assumption.

"Hey guys, he did x before y, so z is the reason this all happened. I knew it!" You're a silly guy.

Nice try doe.

[The Tase]

no one is hurt...i'm honestly glad he's gone..halfway thru the season, the thought of him 'leading' the franchise kinda made me sad


once your chemistry gets messed up in Houston (and it will), you will understand

Most people suspected he wasn't the right guy to take over for Kobe midway through the season.

That comment he made about not having to win Championships to prove he's a winner confirmed it

most exlakers and laker fans wanted him gone.

like me, most just wanted him to re-sign so we can trade his ass.

could've gotten some pieces and picks for the lamo.

some of you didnt want him there some did, blamed him for your failures, then when it was time for him to resign a lot of you wanted him back.

then when he didnt resign with LA, your self entitled, pompous, conceited fanbase started attacking him pretending you didnt want him all along

As for destroying our chemistry, that's real rich coming from kobe c*cksuckers.

We all know who is the real chemistry killer here and it aint dwight. Its the guy who ran chuky atkins out of town, its the guy who ran smush parker out of town, its a guy who accused his own teammate (a hall of fame teammate) of trying to sleep with his wife, its the guy who constantly blames pau gasol for their failures, and its a guy ran not one but now two premier centers in their prime out of town.

Raping white women, suing his own mother, running great centers out of town,



ITS THE KOBE SYSTEM.

All this talk about not being a winner, cant handle the bright lights of LA, not a real laker is nothing but conceited, empty rhetoric drivel by a self entitled delusional fan base.

All you have to do is go to lakers lounge to see how salty you bastards are about dwight leaving LA.

If you guys are so glad that dwight's gone why cant you stop talking about him? Why do you guys keep bashing him?

He's so trivial to you guys right? So why is he always on your mind?

Its totally beneath such a storied franchise with so many championships.

Get the hell over it.
