Dwight Howard is a beast. He is the most dominating center in the league. The Magic are playing Boston and at the half, hes already got 22pts, 6 reb, 1ast. I really think he is the most under rated player in the NBA.
This season has put a spotlight on the disrespect the league has given him. He already have 14 technicals (more than any one else) including the one assessed to him in the first half of this game finning off a harrassing and violent Kendrick Perkins, who continue to furiously foul Howard after the whistle was blown. If you look closely at the replay you will see that Perkins continued to grab on to Howards hand until Howard was able to snatch away, then he was called for elbowing perkins.
The referees also call unecessary fouls on him all the time. Its almost like they punish him night in and night out for being too big, and too bulky! i can remember watching several games in his NBA career when he grabbed the rebound, turned to pass with defenders swarming all around him, and they call offensive foul on him! I mean what is he suppose to do? Dwight Howard cant help it if he is that big. The league really needs to take a close look at all the calls made on him not only this year, but over his career in the NBA and send a memo down to the ref's telling them to ease off the great center for the Orlando Magic!!!!
