I know fans think Dwight Howard is soft, and keyboard thugs get a little braver when there’s barriers and security between them and these 6 foot+ players, but this is really out of line.
Dwight Howard did not receive a warm welcome during his return to the Staples Center. He had to be physically restrained when he got into it with a Lakers fan after the game Sunday night.
The Atlanta Hawks lost a close game down the stretch to the Hornets last night by a final score of 100-96. The loss snapped a six game win streak for the Hawks and they may have been able to keep it going had they not lost Dwight Howard for the rest of the game with just under six minutes left in the fourth quarter. He was ejected after hitting Cody Zeller in the face with an elbow. The play wasn’t necessarily dirty but it was definitely a little extra. Either way, Howard was not in an apologizing mood after the game.
The 20th anniversary of the cult classic Space Jam passed just a couple of days ago on Nov. 15. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, director Joe Pytka talks about the first movie, which athlete he turned down who asked to make a sequel, and why LeBron James and Stephen Curry can’t fill Michael Jordan’s shoes although LeBron is set to star in Space Jam 2.
James Harden and Dwight Howard can deny it all they want but they weren’t big fans of each other in Houston. It started off promising when Howard came to the Rockets from the Lakers but it didn’t take long to see it wasn’t a match made in heaven. All they got out of their time together was some mediocre basketball and a few playoff runs that really never had a chance from the start. As they prepare to face off as opponents this week with Howard in Atlanta with the Hawks now, Harden is still shooting down any talk that there was ever a beef.
