LOL ur argument is pathetic...THE ROOKIE GAME!!! u gotta be kidding me if you even watched it you would have seen that the guards for the rookies were hogging the ball and dwight got NO TOUCHES at all and even the coach of the rookie team P.J Carlisemo (I think?) conceded that Dwight didn't get the ball enough and he should have put a leash on the guards...just give it up dude, dont be mad that the raptors wasted the #8 pick on some stiff this year and that bosh isn't as good as D flight

What I don't like is that Dwight can be having a good game in the first half (like shooting 7 for 10 with 11 rebounds) and he finishes the game with only a couple more shots. Why are there lapses where he goes away? Does he fade or does Jent just forget about him? If you go to your big guy early and hes shooting that good how can he not touch the ball? Seasons already tanked, give Dwight like 25-30 shots. Have a contest with the guards, whoever gets more assists to Howard gets the next night off or some other incentive for creating shots for Dwight.

I never said the guy was horrible. He just isn't as good as you guys think. Two say he will be way better than Duncan and Garnett two hall of famers is retarded. My arguments were't bad Bosh is clearly better right now.

And just why the hell not? How can u say he wont be good enough to dominate in a few years? That is where you're argument is flawed.

You say Bosh is better and Howard will not be on a Garnett level. Have you seen Garnett's rookie year?

Bosh's production is better with nothing but a few decent players around him. You guys just won't drop it.

We can argue and argue about this but it really wont matter.

In 3 years, Bosh will be Howards waterboy.

How do you figure in three years? Francis will still be chucking. How does he have more potential than Bosh? All he has on bosh is weight. You think that dunk was good look at what Bosh did to Theo Ratliff. Bosh will be an allstar next year.

Common man, Bosh looks like a lightpole with arms, a small Manute Bol.
While Howard will be bulking up even more this offseason, Bosh will be gettting pissed on by stray dogs.

Lol. Howard has a dunk like that every game. You really underestimate the importance of power game. KG doesnt have a power game, he for 95% of his career is a first round exit, and now he is about to miss the playoffs. Power players like Shaq and Duncan, there teams are always in contention. Wonder why?

Howard already has a power game. You can go ahead and rely on your nice and quick power forward who shoots jumpshots, while we have a player who will dominate the low post, limit opponents to one shot and allow no layups in the paint.

I'm sorry but Howard couldn't hold KG's jock strap. I'll bet you he is stronger than Howard. Btw Bosh gets alot of dunks too, I'm just saying if thats Howard best dunk than thats nothing. KG did get the the western finals last year.

And that isnt Howards best dunk, just one of the many to choose from. And KG had what, 8 first round exits before he got to the WCF, and now he is going to miss the playoffs. Lol, yea, use one year to try to make a point.

And don't forget the latest matchup between KG and Howard. Howard, a rookie, was already holding his own..if not doing better on that game. I can't remember his stat on that game but it was pretty impressive (19-13). He is a rookie. KG is already an established star. He even snarled at KG.

And check sportsline.com, they are keeping tabs on the dunks this season, Shaq on top, Amare second, Kenyon Martin then Howard.....i believe Bosh is somewhere down below...

The stats for Howard in that game were 19 points and 19 fu*king rebounds. And KG had this to say after the game.

"Dwight is 10 times bigger than I was at 19", Garnett said. "He's like a freak of nature. It's almost scary how he applies himself and works on his game. I had to go to my bag of tricks to come up with some stuff to deal with him." KG on Dwight
