Re: Looks like another big game for howard
Seriously, Dwight was looking at like 24 and 20. Davis is a tool.

Darko or JO is the youngest, Darko was 17 when drafted, so he could very well be the youngest ever to play in a game.

I thought it was JO or Kobe ... I know Darko was the youngest drafted but question is how long was it before he got into a game.

I rated him near the bottom for a reason. He is pretty terrible.

Re: Looks like another big game for howard
I thought J. O'neal was the youngest to ever play in a game, but I could be wrong.

Re: Looks like another big game for howard
As I said to hobojoe a couple of weeks ago, Johnny Davis is the NBA's worst head coach since Alvin Gentry and John Lucas, he's simply terrible. Next year when he's gone, we'll see Dwight Howard make the kind of strides that Chris Bosh and Amare Stoudemire made in their second year in the league.
And I agree with the guy who said that as great as his potential is, he's not better than Josh Howard as of now. Josh is playing like a DPOY down in Dallas and Dwight is probably still a below average starting power forward.

A guy who puts up 11/10/2 a game is not below average, especially when that player is only 19 years old.

Context my friend. Context. This season yes. However, in the grand scheme of things you are right. However, this season yes, he's a mediocre power forward. That doesn't mean we shouldn't expect big things from him in the future.

I know. I'm just very excited about Howard. He is my new favorite player. Now if we could only get Saunders in here, that would make my week.

He's a below average starting power forward if there are fifteen starting power forwards in the NBA who are better than him, which there are: Emeka Okafor, Dirk Nowitzki, Kenyon Martin, Rasheed Wallace, Jermaine O'Neal, Elton Brand, Lamar Odom, Pau Gasol, Kevin Garnett, Chris Webber, Amare Stoudemire, Zach Randolph, Tim Duncan, Chris Bosh, and Antawn Jamison. No need to go and overrate him.
His age is irrelevant when we're talking about how good he is right now.

Howard with another dominating first half.
16 points, 10 rebounds and 1 block. He is also shooting 50% from the floor and is 8-9 from the FT line.
Is it too early to call this Howard's team?

Re: Looks like another big game for howard
Dwight off to another tremendous game. 16 pts, 10 rebs, 1 block in 19 mins in the first half against the Knicks.

Re: Howard with another dominating first half.
Howard isn't ready to be the go to player yet, but he will be soon. His offensive game still needs more polish. Give him a whole summer to work on it, and I think next year you'll see him dominate.
