[Sccit]

which proves he has no heart.......

I love how Laker fans are in denial that it's so obvious Kobe is the reason he left. Not only did he straight up say he left because of him, but the most dominate center of all-time left because of him lol.

Kobe so desperately wants to equal, eclipse or come close to MJ, he won't share the spotlight with someone else. Dwight wasn't allowed to go there and be the superstar he was when he was in Orlando.

Laker fans will cop out, like always, even in response to me right now with "Dwight couldn't handle being a champion or how Kobe was trying to push him towards that" but the reality is Kobe wouldn't Dwight be considered any more than a "soldier of Kobe's to help Kobe win Kobe's sixth ring".

If he was so "scared" of success he wouldn't of gone to a team considered more of a contender than LA, with a much brighter future. And please don't respond to "brighter future" with "Welllll ifffff Kobe comes back 100% annnnnnd iffffff we get a top 3 pick in the draft annnnnnd iffffff Kevin Love comes to LA annnnnnd ifffffff Phil Jackson comes back, we'll be in better shape than Houston" lol.

he left because he made a fool out of himself.

houston fans will love him if he makes the playoffs, laker fans will not, especially after all the crying about touches and not playing hard on defense, and REFUSING literally refusing to run the pick and roll. i never heard of that in my entire life.

you take what the defense gives you, theres no such thing as "oh im not running the pick and roll, because my post game is GREAT!"

you think any laker fans would of complained about him leaving or completely disliked him if he just played hard D and ran the pick and roll and played with his heart?


dwight wasnt allowed to be the super star like he was in orlando? You do know, he said his whole team in orlando 'sucks' and needed more help, he wanted to play with stars. he was playing with pau, nash, kobe. shouldnt be any easier if he simply crashed the boards and picked up the garbage, and played hard D and running the P&R.

instead of having our best post up bigman (pau) initiate from the post, we have one of the wost bigmen in the league in terms of post ups (his post up efficiency was dead last. last season), initiate and try to create and make plays. that was a total disaster. jordan hill should be int he post rather than dwight.


lol kobe was not considering him a little soldier, he was giving him the helm to the franchise and said it publicly, but dude had much to learn as kobe said, shit as anyone can see as his fundamentals and basketball IQ improved very little since the day he got drafted.


dwight had a little taste of being in the western conference playoffs BY himself last year, after he complained so much about kobe. and we got swept. dwight isnt gonna be 1st fiddle come playoff, if they reach the WCF that will surprise me.

He's running a lot of pick and rolls in Houston

yup, which pisses me off.


i dont know if it was because of shaqs comment before the start of last season or what not.

but steve nash publicly came out that dwight literally said he "refused to run the pick and roll" last season and wanted to go into the "post"


either that or the fact taht he realizes he isnt a back 2 the basket player. in the first couple houston games, i've seen where dwight kept bitching about getting it in the post and  parson, lin, harden thus ignoring him.

the dude is just ridiculous

[Sccit]

he didn't run the pick in roll in los angeles and pouted like a little bitch because he didn't get what he wanted

he's now running the pick n roll in houston and playing second fiddle to a guy who should be second fiddle


karma is always on the lookout for mufuckaz like Dwight.....he wont win a ring because his head's got no brain n his chest got no heart

[Citizen-Y]

what a fucking cry baby you are

[Sccit]

yes, because that team with an amazing cast of Jameer Nelson, Hedo Turkey-glue and Rashard Lewis (post seattle) was a murderers row of future NBA hall of famer's.  they carried Dwight to that finals while he put up 2 points a game off the bench, right?

[Sccit]

all those players u mentioned were in their prime in orlando and all of em were all-star caliber players....stan van gundy's system was based on three point shooting and floor spacing, so those three stars were more than enough to propel the magic to beast in the east. they woulda been the same team with tyson chandler or marcus camby in their prime down low.

[Hack Wilson - real]

Dwight was the won winning defensive player of the year and grabbing 14 rebounds a game to go with his 20 points a night.  those guys wouldn't be shit without Dwight.  Dwight's the only reason Jameer was even an all star that one year.

[Sccit]

they opened the floor for dwight by bein knock down shooters, leaving him with easy putbacks, spoon-fed dunks, and way more rebounding opportunities....it was the product of stan van gundy's system. not sayin dwight is a bum, but he was there to clean up garbage and defend....the offense revolved around the three-point shooters. thats why i say, u put a big in there who's good enough to crash boards and defend for 40 minutes, and he's guaranteed numbers. now, dwight is a good defender and a good rebounder, but he's not franchise level talent. even now, he's a second fiddle, and we're not even talkin about a championship caliber team, we're talkin bout the rockets........

Lol the wahhhbulance is in full effect
