Man Im dissapointed in the Magic. I thought they would play better than this, the Celtics really have them figured out.

They've really got them on lockdown and I don't know how many of us could have expected that.

I expected it. I even called the Celtics in 5 because DH12 is a football player playing in the NBA.

He's one of the best in the league and he's done all he can...he's just being stopped

What are you talking about

He still has no fundamentals at all. He shoots worse than a crippled seven year old.

He's only one of the best because there are only a few good centers in the nba..

Thats a thin position but you can't deny Dwight the title of being the best center in the NBA. He's still a great player and any team would benefit from him starting on their team...

Hes a huge liability whenever he goes up against a center with size. You're oblivious if you truly believe he possess great skill. He benefits facing teams with no real centers.

Dwight has what a lot of big men don't have...a sense of dominance. He can just dominate the paint. Its hard to stop a player like that. The Celtics are doing it right now and they're winning the series because of that. Stop Dwight and you stop the Magic. He's been doing what he's supposed to do all year long...

They're stopping Dwight because Kendrick Perkins is a physical defender and doesn't give ground. Dwight is not getting dunks so he is not scoring. Also they have Rasheed who has his size and near his quickness, thus he is being stopped. He sucked vs LA last year because of Bynum who has his size.. He was owning Nazr Mohammed and Al Horford.. grats.

Thats his game though and they're stopping the dunks. The paint is his area and you can't knock the dude for doing what a 7 footer is supposed to do...

If he's able to exert his presence over Perkins, its over. He should be doing that anyways <_<

First off Artest wont lock down PP. Get that thought out of your head

Second of all Dwight has like 2 post moves. Like I told rip the other day him being the best center in the league shows how watered down the position is now.

why wont he?

it's a perfect match-up at this point in time

i understand that the regular season doesnt mean anything right now, but Pierce only averaged 13 a game vs Artest this season


now i understand that the Suns have absolute no chance vs the Lakers, but if the Lakers play with this focus, they're not losing.

Dwight Howard 7/7/3.. Where are you PM7..

Guy is getting worked over since he is actually facing good defensive centers with size.
