Why didn t Howard go to the Mavericks in the first place?

That's what it looks like now.

The situation at the time was that Harden was a strong contender for the league's first percentile, and Ellis? I'm sorry, but if he could, he wouldn't have left the Warriors. After all, King Nuo Tianwang is old, Carter and others are also old (Mavericks are a pension team), Howard's own offensive ability is very poor, he can't be the offensive core, and he is a blue-collar worker without a strong outside line.

Harden's potential should be something he cares about (I didn't expect me to stare at the defense really badly).

I don't think Howard fits the Mavericks' system, and the Rockets are a little better. He can't blame Kobe Bryant for not playing well in the Lakers, his own limited ability leads to his lack of adaptability, and he can only look for the kind of team with a fast pace and a lot of accurate outside projection.

These people don't care if they are the bosses, the locker room leaders are the bosses, but the likes of TM Fisher and Haslem are the bosses of the team? Anthony has been shooting infinitely, and he will go to the Rockets this season.

Pure hand lookout!!

Howard went to the Mavericks, and the Mavericks' staffing couldn't possibly be the same as it was in this year's playoffs. Rockets have potential, great energy! The boss is awesome, and after buying Yao Ming, the market value has increased several times; The general manager is awesome, the empty gloves White Wolves can always pack out the quasi-star players Parsons, Brooks, Lowry and so on; The coach is awesome, he was old and fierce when he was a player; In addition, there is the first quantile of the league, there is Lin Crazy, there is Gao Fu Shuai, there is the awesome Asik on the inside, and there is the bullfighter Belifu.

Wow, what a fantastic team. Why shouldn't I be tempted?

Personally, I think Spark may not be suitable to be the core of the team.

There must have been more than one factor in this spark rejecting the Mavericks at the time.

Personally, I think. The attraction of joining the team is as follows.

1 market. 2 Economy.

3. Harden, who had beautiful statistics at the time, was more attractive than Nowitzki, who was constantly injured this season+ plus an age advantage.

4. Geographical conditions, teammates or team culture.

5 Spark's character. Go to the Mavericks is stable and the second master. Go to the Rockets can fight for the core as a family.

The 6HH combination will be fruitful within a few years. If you don't win the championship in the year of the calf, it is estimated that it will fall apart.

On July 2, 2016, Dwight Howard signed with the Atlanta Hawks, and "Warcraft" signed a three-year, $70.5 million contract to return to his hometown of Atlanta.

Dwight Howard, born on December 8, 1985 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, is an American professional basketball player who was once known as the league's active No. 1 center and played for the NBA Atlanta Hawks.

In the 2004 NBA Draft, Dwight Howard was selected by the Orlando Magic with the first pick in the first round. In his career, he has played for the Orlando Magic, Los Angeles Lakers, and Houston Rockets. He won the 2008 All-Star Slam Dunk Contest and won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award for three consecutive seasons in 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11.

It is said that hello landlord! Warcraft is said to be going to the Lakers. It is also possible to stay with the Magic, but if it is still with the Magic, it will not be renewed with the Magic next season.

He was still recovering from his injury in the United States and did not go to London to watch the Olympics.

The soap opera is still going on... It's still magic for the time being...

Howard used to be a player who could replace James alone, and Howard also led the Magic team to the Finals by himself, although he did not win the championship in the end, but Howard's strength is still very worthy of recognition, there is no doubt that Howard was also placed on infinite high hopes when he joined the Rockets, but Howard's performance in the Rockets surprised fans, and at the same time made the Rockets feel very disappointed.

As we all know, Capela was still Howard's substitute, which is enough to prove that Howard's strength is beyond doubt, after all, Capela's strength in the game is now very prominent, and the substitutes are so good, the main Howard of the Rockets at that time did not need to be questioned, but in the end, the Rockets did not renew Howard's contract, but directly corrected Capela so that fans expressed their incomprehension.

And the contradiction between Harden and Howard at that time was also a very fatal problem, Howard was unwilling to settle for second, and Harden also tried his best to prove that he was the boss of the Rockets, which was only the beginning of the contradiction between Harden and Howard, but the two on the court can still play a very good match, and the existence of the contradiction does not seem to involve the game, so the Rockets management did not pay attention to the contradiction between Harden and Howard.

At that time, Harden was deeply confused by Kardashian, and once caused a huge sensation in the league, and Harden gradually became a marginal player, the entire Rockets team was almost in a state of slump, and Harden's mood was very unstable.

Everyone knows that Howard's off-court things are even better than Harden's, Howard thinks that Harden lost himself for Kardashian, such a player Howard looks down on in his heart, that is, from this time on, Howard had the idea of leaving Harden and the Rockets, that is to say, Harden's decadence for Kardashian is the main reason for Howard to leave the Arrows.

Howard in the NBA, is he no longer fit for the small-ball era?

Howard is the talented champion sign, the Superman dunk king, the single-core leader who led the team to kill the Cavaliers, and the best defensive player for three consecutive years; I also think of the big man who advocates happy basketball and becomes a wandering center who is obsessed with everyone.

Even if people lament the rapid transformation of the basketball era, Howard can still maintain a double-double in consecutive seasons and contribute 30+30 terrifying statistics. At one point, Howard had an affair with the Golden State Warriors. However, with the Warriors signing Cousins and the Wizards cutting off Howard, such a trade message has come to an end, so is Howard suitable for the Warriors?

Howard is not a necessity for the Warriors. The Warriors are a champion of fluid offense, and their scoring methods are known for their three-point approach. And Howard, as a product of the late era of traditional centers, is obviously not suitable for such an offensive style.

He needs the whole team to fall into positional battles and open up space on the inside to hold the ball alone. And the Warriors will never change their offensive methods for him alone.

Howard lacks the center traits of the small-ball era. First of all, Howard lacks the ability to shoot from the field, let alone three-pointers, which will undoubtedly slow down the team's offensive tempo; Howard's high cover ability is not bad, but most of them are to create opportunities for himself, Howard is not willing to be a cover for green leaves, why not help his teammates create open opportunities; In addition, Howard's passing vision is relatively narrow, making it difficult to provide direct assists to teammates who are running in the open space; His free-throw percentage is also a huge problem.

In addition, Howard's requirements for salary and status are also obvious. He doesn't want to just take a veteran contract to win the championship; In addition, he needs the team to design a strategy centered around him. Points per game, rebounds, and blocks are the statistics that Howard handed over to the Hornets during the NBA season, and if the Warriors are willing to give McGee enough playing time, McGee can also hand over such a report card, not to mention Cousins, a center who is more in line with the small ball era.

But is it true that Howard is struggling to survive in this era? Of course not. His excellent rim protection and defensive ability are still in demand for teams that are good at defense, and his offensive style of play can also provide a consistent offensive style for teams in the small ball era.

It's just that he needs a team that can sacrifice offensive velocity for him and a coach who can handle tactics for him. Howard's"Happy basketball"As long as he is willing to make changes, there is still room for improvement. After getting in touch with Howard, Wall said:

I feel like he's fixing his career and getting rid of the negative comments, we all know he likes to be funny or do things like that, but I think he's very focused, and as team-mates we need to make him feel comfortable, make him feel welcome, and then tell him what we need him to do.

Yes, Howard's style of play is not suitable for today's times, and he is a declining star.

Yes, to be precise, Howard is no longer suitable for any era, his performance has shown a significant decline, and he is no longer what he used to be.

Now in this small-ball era, many centers have also begun to practice three-point shooting, and they have learned more to respond to the ability, Howard's shooting ability is relatively poor, and the free throw is not very accurate, if you want to play at a high level in this era, it is not enough to rely on the confrontation under the basket.

Washington Wizards.

In the 2018 NBA offseason, Howard, who had just played the highlight of his career with the Charlotte Hornets, was inspiring.

The points per game plus blocks were the Rockets' strongest stats in the 2013-2014 season.

After a not very pleasant season in Atlanta in 2017, Howard put away his bags, and after picking up the Hornets owner Michael Jordan's **, Howard's whole person was excited, the basketball god told him that he still had potential, and he was willing to believe him, hoping that he could come to the Hornets to help Walker, Warcraft promised the flyers, and sure enough, after coming to Charlotte, Howard played highlight data, he can break through with the ball, he can shoot three points, he can still dunk, Charlotte's fans gradually fell in love with the innocent and trustworthy boy, but the team's poor record became the fuse for the team to trade him.

After a happy hour with the Hornets, Howard had to pack his bags again and head to the unknown Washington, D.C., where he couldn't continue to play with a back injury, and the No. 1 center who was once the dominant center in the NBA became less presence, and fans could only feel his power from Warcraft in the replays.

Warcraft hasn't disappeared, and now with the Washington Wizards, he didn't play because of injuries that affected the rest of the showroom, so there's no news about him.

In 2018.

Howard. The highlight of his career just after playing with the Charlotte Hornets was exciting, with points per game and blocks added to the Rockets' strongest stats in the 2013-2014 season. Joining the Wizards with full marks, meeting Wall, Beal, Howard and Porter, a new force on the front line, who knows how long it won't take for Warcraft to suffer injuries again, it's really a joy and a sorrow.

Howard has struggled this season, with a spate of injuries and multiple rumours of disagreement with the team, but these rumors have not been confirmed. There has been a lot of speculation about where Howard's next stop will be this summer, but I have a different view on this for the following reasons:

1. Contract. In Howard's current form, there is simply no way to get another max contract. On the other hand, Howard might as well execute the final year of his contract.

Don't forget, Howard has seven or eight children, and he has to pay a lot of alimony to the children every month, which is undoubtedly a lot of pressure.

2. Team. The Lakers, Mavericks and other teams may not be able to win championships in recent years, and their number one center this summer is also focused on Hassan Whiteside, and Howard can only be a spare tire at best. Moreover, Howard is getting older, and the Lakers, Mavericks, etc. obviously have no championship potential.

3. Status. Howard is very important for the ball, which can be seen in the conflict with Kobe Bryant in the 12-13 season. Capela is not yet mature, the rookie is not yet a rookie, and Howard is still able to hold on to his starting spot without much competitive pressure.

4. Harden. Modern connection has always been the two points of the rocket race. And Harden said at the end of the season that he hoped Howard would stay and challenge for the championship instead of choosing to execute the jump contract.

Recently, it was revealed that Howard will leave Toronto to join forces with Lowry. But in the long run, the Rockets are Howard's best fit. Based on age and physical condition, Sparks' pursuit of a championship is getting farther and farther away, so it is better to settle for the next best thing and continue to stay with the Rockets to bring exciting games to fans.

Let's talk about basketball.

Howard hasn't had any better time with the Hawks this season than he did with the Rockets. This season, Howard played an average of minutes per game for the Hawks, and was able to contribute 13 rebounds and blocks per game. This season, Howard is averaging the lowest number of shots per game in nearly three years.

At the same time, Howard's arrival seemed to break the Hawks' tactical system, and Howard's transition on both ends of the floor was too slow, interrupting the team's rhythm.

In addition, the passing ball of the former Eagles is nowhere to be seen. The Hawks have a reputation as the "Eastern Spurs", but this season the Hawks seem to be more stuck in individual singles, and have lost the team basketball atmosphere of the past. Howard is also considered to be of low trade value, and in the eyes of the United States, Huo quietly and carefully He Ward's trade value is only worth a second-round show.

However, Howard's old club Rockets are in very good shape this season, and the team has become a strong team in the West after a major change in tactics and personnel, and it is likely to become the second team in the West.
