Hall of famer for baby mamas. Lol😂😂😂

Agreed, and I do disagree about this whole revitalizing his career this year though, just two years ago he was giving Charlotte 17 and 12.5 a game, but other than that he was injured all last year with Washington basically. He just getting the attention now because he is in LA.

Ben Wallace won more but he’s not in; but the NBA Hall of Fame is a joke anyway

Dizzle20062006 the NBA hall of fame can be seen as weird if you don’t realize it’s not actually the NBA hall of fame but the basketball hall of fame. It’s an important distinction because it accounts for more than what you do in the NBA.

Dizzle20062006 Howard also has better stats than Ben. Plus Wallace will get in eventually, it’s just that there’s been some stacked classes.

Dizzle20062006 ok and? D12 is a HOF no question

Don Williams The Basketball Hall of Fame may be easier to get into than the other sports. But the Baseball HOF is filled with a bunch of PED users while writers refuse to induct other guys who did steroids because they don’t like them. The Pro Football hall also has people using their votes to fill their personal vendettas against certain players who they don’t like, while admitting guys with questionable off the field issues. No HOF is perfect.

Not to mention he beat LeBron to take Orlando to the finals

As a center he was absolute monster man was a baby Shaq in the paint with more bounce

KING CB3 The Cavs won 60+ that year and had the top spot in the East, so that made it special.

@@musicmixesmore3049 It wasnt even like Lebron was choking either, Lebron was averaging a 40 pt triple double and was playing shut down defense

Teddy Otti that’s what I said. They act like he was completely bummy since LA

But you have to see the difference between putting up decent numbers on a terrible team and putting up decent numbers on one of if not the best team in the league

I keep saying that.. That's why i was surprised when they didn't keep him

SEAN FOLAN that’s definitely a key component too. However, Dwight is 34 and his injuries make him 40. now so obviously his numbers aren’t going to be outstanding. But 16 and 12 is still impressive for someone who was “washed”

michael victor I thought his stint with the rockets was very underrated he was a very good player and he was a beast in the playoffs every year in Houston

LoL LoL FACTS

His first 8 seasons are why I surely believe he's a future HOF. In his prime and someone said best center, his name would be the first name to pop up.

thsu8 Damian Lillard isn’t a HOF

Ryan Lajara I don’t think Bosh did enough. Great defensive player and selfless teammate though. Melo is a HOFer. Lillard is tough. Dame isn’t better than Steph, Kyrie, or Westbrook.

So Andrew Bynum a HOF?

Both Dame and Kyrie are HOF. Especially Kyrie he won the game vs 73-9 warriors.

It's no question that Howard is a hall of famer.

@AnObviousUsername yao is in the hall of fame. So dwight should be too plain and simple

It's players in the HOF with less accomplishments he probably won't be 1st ballot but he's definitely a HOF

@Sudhir Kakar you aren't the brightest are you?

Li Tai Fang 💯

Couldn't agree for more

Vlade is in the hall of fame for beating the USA twice in the Olympics and being the trailblazer that allowed Europeans players to transition into the league. He also help the NBA expand its brand to the Europe.

Peter Haile Even with that being said, Howard should be in if Vlade is in (1 all star game and zero all nba)

Even if considering Divac as a special case, Howard is also a better player than Jack Sikma. I mean just look at his career accomplishments: 8× NBA All-Star 5× All-NBA First Team 3× NBA Defensive Player of the Year 4× NBA All-Defensive First Team 5× NBA rebounding leader 2× NBA blocks leader

Deadass

Correct!

Nah, he was a cancer that teams didn't want even when he was actually good. You have to factor it in.

Nick Shwartz TMac is way better than Dwight. That is a terrible comparison. HOF is about the individual. Before injury TMac was on Kobe’s level of skill. Dwight never even close to Kobe’s level.

Brent skill isn’t the metric that determines if your in the HOF. Statistics, performance, and accolades does. On all three counts, Dwight beats TMAC. Their offensive production was compatible in their primes, but Dwight also was the best defensive player in the league in that five year stretch, switching on to clamp perimeter players if need be. Tmac was never close to the defensive beast that was prime D12. Dwight went to the finals. Dwight has gotten out of the first round multiple times. Tmac hasn’t done either of those things. Dwight has more all nba appearances. Dwight has better career averages. The list goes on. And they’re players worse than TMAC in the hall like Mitch Richmond, gale Goodrich, Reggie miller etc that Dwight easily has had a better career than. This argument is so retarded. If he doesn’t make the hall, a lot of retired players needed to get their acceptances reversed

@@triiii1303 Just Won The Finals 2020

@@brent9908 don't use skill as a factor for hall of fame lol. If that's the case Kyrie Irving would be in the hall of fame in his 3rd year 😭😂😂

@@triiii1303 What's laughable is that you say Dwight's offensive production is compatible to T-Mac. T-Mac won a regular season scoring title with 32 ppg. The most Dwight after averaged was 22 ppg. It's not even close. Next I never said skill determines a HOF. I was simply making the point that T-Mac should be in the HOF bc he was consistently producing on Kobe's level for years. Kobe even said Tracy was the toughest player for him to guard bc he can do everything he can do and he's taller. I won't say "skill" since you read way too much into words and semantics. Third Dwight won defensive player of year for all those years bc there is a bias for bigs when it comes to that award. Tracy McGrady was an excellent defender in his own right. You clearly don't watch enough basketball if you don't know that McGrady was a great defender. T-Mac shutdown two offensive juggernauts in Dirk and Glen Robinson in the playoffs. However, for the sake of the argument I can be objective and give Dwight the edge on overall defensive impact. You talk about Dwight's finals appearance but he had better teams around him. McGrady never got to play with a healthy prime Grant hill. Only had a couple of healthy years with Yao, who retired early due to injury. In short, Dwight had the longevity, but prime vs prime McGrady is certainly the better basketball player. Any NBA player would tell you the same. Dwight had flaws like lack of post moves, no mid range game, poor free throw shooter, no handles. However, you cant name one flaw in T-MAC's game. I REST MY CASE

HGC 4E 40 and 14 the close out game 6 people forget about that 🤦🏾‍♂️

@Kruv Mezulari Name an MVP that isn't a HOF. It's not the same.

Kruv Mezulari The difference is Derrick Rose has played at a high level the last couple seasons including this one. There’s no debate about Rose being a HOF if Dwight Howard is considered one. I mean he was an MVP 10 years ago and is still relevant.

Denzel Wilksch stephen a just making noise

Exactly

@Tod Wilkinson Drummond is no where close as good as prime Dwight

@Tod Wilkinson dude stop

@Tod Wilkinson 🤣 because Drummond is 7 feet tall and can rebound. Stop it. Where are his accolades fool!

@Tod Wilkinson Idek bro, I mean one of them actually lead his team to the playoffs multiple years, won multiple, DPoYs, and spoiled a LeBron v Kobe finals. Stan van Gundy had the same gameplay with Drummond that's why he has so many rebounds but Dwight runs and had more decent post moves/inside scoring and you can see why they didn't get to emulate the same success with the Orlando run

This was the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen Stephen A say

Probably somehow had Football HOF voter credentials n did the same for TO LOL

Mos def. Ben Wallace too

Tracy Mcgrady with out.injurys would had been a top 5 player all time . Everyone knows that, that’s why he was in the hall of fame no questions asked.

@@tieon82 Grant Hill did make the HOF. He and Steve Nash got in the same year. T Mac was only second to Kobe during his prime years. Some years he was the best offensive player in the game, but Kobe was an elite defender. I use to love their battles, they would kill each other.

@@MrNado123 my bad.. Ur right about Hill. I will say for a 2 year span maybe.. McGrady was better than Kobe..

noah maroto I wish the HOF was harder to get into because while that’s true, maybes and what if stories shouldn’t get players into the HOF. It should be your accomplishments and accolades and in my opinion with TMAC making it the criteria has been lowered significantly. I love TMAC though, one of my all time favorites.

And as a center too.

I wouldn’t say single handedly. Hedo, Jameer, Rashard Lewis played pretty darn well in that playoff run. Hedo made some insanely tough, clutch shots

dwight was a legit superstar and best player on the team from 2008-2012, but to say he carried a bunch of role players is a massive overstatement. jameer nelson and rashard lewis made the all star team in 2009, and hedo turkoglu made virtually every clutch shot necessary for us to advance to the nba finals. not too mention we had a deep bench made up of jj redick, marcin gortat, courtney lee, and mikael pietrus. Bottom line: dwight was a huge piece of that 2009 finals team, but to say he carried us single handedly is false and short sighted

Melo has career numbers.. dwight has Orlando numbers

Melo is a First ballet HOF period you could give way better examples for your point

Nothing Stephen A. said was wrong 💯
