Lakers feeding him when he's not in foul trouble

Dwight finally got some touches last night and you saw the result. A blowout victory. He obviously was very efficient missing only two of his 14 attempts, but the biggest thing is he draws so much attention. Get him the ball and if teams wanna play him straight up he'll score at will. If they double Dwight he'll kick it out to the open shooters. Obviously he also gets other teams in foul trouble very quickly. He obviously won't make most of them, but it still serves a purpose. Keep getting Howard the ball and this Lakers team will continue to get wide open looks.

Dwight's timing is still so off he got ripped 4 times by Al Jefferson one of the worst defensive 5s in the game.
let THAT marinate
If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.
You should reach more often

9 shots attempts tonight. Just can't happen. Dwight as he does every night had a huge physical advantage. Tim Duncan is still a great player and defender, but he nor anyone in the league can really handle Dwight and his great strength and athleticism over the course of a ball game. Give him the ball and let him go to work. If teams double it'll lead to wide open looks for the shooters and if they don't he's gonna dominate them.

He's not Andrew Bynum.
He had the ball plenty of times, but his offense is so predictable. If only he recalled those days he trained under Hakeem, then he wouldn't have those turnovers

Dwight kept losing the ball, literally little to no ball security.

It's timing. Not talent

Yea he is making lazy sloppy moves to the rim thinking guys are not gonna put their weight on his back as he makes the move to the paint. Like Kobe told him just make 1-2 hard dribbles & power up over the top & break whoevers hand is waiting to block the dunk.
Never Wrong Always Right Like Freeway Exits!!

Dwight is a far better offensive player than Bynum. His offense isn't predictable at all. His postgame has improved every season of his career. His combination of size, speed, skill, and athleticism is just too much to handle. Dwight needs to be more involved. No if, ands, or buts about it.He's not Andrew Bynum.
