Dwight Howard: No you do not need contacts Dwight Howard is overrated, vastly! The argument everyone will make here is the same, he has won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award three times in a row. He has been All NBA first team three years in a row. He has dominated the paint like no other the past few years. My generation will use his stats as a crutch to say he is the greatest center of all time, well he is not. Dwight is the beneficiary of playing in the NBA when the league is dominated by guards. For the first time in league history the game does not have great big men who change the game. The past four decades all had one thing in common, multiple big men who were dominate and played the center position. Should we punish Dwight for dominating against guys like Andrew Bogut and Al Jefferson? Not sure, maybe. All I know is we will never know how great he is because he plays against the weakest era of centers in NBA history. When you look at the 90′s you had David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, Hakeem Olajuwon and Alonzo Morning. Now you have Al Horford and Tyson Chandler!? Dwight Howard to me is that kid in middle school who is to slow to be in regular classes but to smart for sped classes. Dwight would be a solid center in any other era, but in today’s era he is considered great.
