What a joke and waste of a talent.
why you so angry? what's so wrong about howard? sure his free throw sucks but you wouldn't want his rebounding and rim protection?
Where I'm from, vulgarity =/= angry. Second, he's an athletic big that COULD dominate, but he just does not give a flying fuck when he's out there (at least from what he puts out on the court). He has no consistent low post game, is a liability on the free throw line, and has a shit attitude. I've been saying for a very very long time that he has been the beneficiary of great guards/shooters around him.
Right now, a guy like Ibaka would be much more valuable to a team than Howard would, and he probably would cost half as much.
he also doesnt want to run pick and roll often for whatever reason...
honstly all dwight needs to do is realize that he's not a post player and run the PnR all the time and no one could question how good he is. IMO all he needs is a good coach or mentor or someone to tell him to stop demanding post touches, it's obviously not part of his game (yet). If he did that even his weak FT% could be ignored.
At this point does anyone still believe Dwight will get a post game? He's worked with Ewing, Kareem, now Hakeem, if he doesn't get his shit together by next year, I can't imagine him getting a post-game period.

It's insane because he has 2 guards who are amazing at the pick and roll. I mean, even Jared Jeffries scored 10 points running the pick and roll with Lin.
Is it wrong that I love seeing the Cavs lose? I love it. The blatant tanking, the terrible drafting - thank God they're bad. The schadenfreude is good for my psyche.

But you have to wonder, why do scrubs have allstar games against us? Josh McRoberts, Richard Jefferson, Steve Blake, Jodie Meeks, James Anderson, Tony Wroten, and Bargs. I bet JJ Hickson goes off on us tomorrow.
Yeah, I don't get why the Cavs are not good. You have 3 really good players. You should start building around them and hoping they improve, not fishing for more draft picks.
Irving, Waiters and Thompson. (I was going to say Zeller, but, hey, let's consign a player who showed some promise to the trash heap in his second year.) Granted it looks like they whiffed on Bennett. If you don't think you can't build a decent team with those three, then I guess you figure you have to buy 3 All-stars to be competitive.
