Dwight Howard, Orlando: He'll be just 21 in December, but looks ready to enter the conversation when speaking about the game's top big men. He had more rebounds than anyone else last season, and his offensive game continues to grow. It's no surprise that Wade, who would know, has called Howard a younger version of Shaq.</div> Source Here are the people Dwight is ranked higher than: 17. Amare Stoudemire 18. Yao Ming 19. Ron Artest 20. Carmelo Anthony 21. Richard Hamilton 22. Vince Carter 23. Gilbert Arenas 24. Shawn Marion 25. Chris Bosh 26. Jermaine O'Neal 27. Michael Redd 28. Pau Gasol 29. Tayshaun Prince 30. Joe Johnson 31. Antawn Jamison 32. Tony Parker 33. Mike Bibby 34. Baron Davis 35. Rasheed Wallace
Interesting group of people that they put him ahead of. I agree that I would put Dwight over Amare, because Amare is still trying to recover from that injury, but I think I might put Yao over Dwight for now. At the end of the season I think you will be able to call Dwight a Top 10 player, though.
are these rankings based on potential? what these writers think the players will do during the upcoming season? or what they did during the previous season?
as much as i love dwight id have to disagree...jermaine oneal, amare, yao, bosh, and gasol i think should all be ahead of him, but hey more lovin to the magic
Dwight Howard isn't that good. Amare, Gasol, Yao, and J.O'Neal all have developed games and jumpshots. A little insane rank by whoever wrote this.
