Are players afraid to pass the ball to howard in the post? LIke give the ball to him, you get paid millions of dollars just to pass the ball. How hard can it be? And when Dwight gets the balls, the shot clock is around 10 seconds or less.
Feed dwight more.

It's called how they are defending him and some times Dwight doesn't look for it. You need to time things like that. They mistimed it once and Chandler knocked it away from him.

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

For sure, its easier said than done. However, we must push the ball towards him and not jack 3s alllllllllll the time. 12-37 on 3s.. Come on now.

They attempt to pass it to him, but the way the opposing teams have defended him. Many times I would see 2-3 defenders cram in the post once Howard starts to gather himself and try to foul, strip, or make him pass the ball.

Teams throw their SF at him usually, and they just dare whoever the hell we have to shoot a three.

Once Nash comes back you will barely see Dwight posting. Guaruntee it.

Lakers are having too many turnover when they are going to pass the ball to Dwight I've already seen a lot of it, Pass interception against dwight and getting strip because of clogging the paint.The Lakers need better a spacing and better timing to make it work so far not that good but it can be tweak.

Dwight really isn't an offensive player past P&R's and Dunks.. When Nash gets back expect his scoring to go up a bit.

Because when he gets the ball in the post he doesn't really do anything with it.. Stands for a few seconds staring what he is gonna do then attempts a hook [expletive] and usually gets stripped

Double Teams and Free Throws. Dwight isn't as big of a target as people think. He's also on a team with very average 3 point shooters. Makes it a little tough

60% chance dwight is going to get fouled, 30% chance of dwight turning the ball over.
