Its not about comparing the 2, its about Dwight not dominating on offense. Thats shaqs point
Basically Shaq is saying "I would have averaged at least 28 points".
He's comparing what is good for himself with what should be good for Howard.
Shaq is one of the greatest players ever. He shouldn't expect Howard to do what he did.

Yeah I know. But I don't think we will see a center dominate like Shaq ever again. The dude got 35 and 17 all of the time in the playoffs. It was just absurd.

Dwight has always disappointed me in his offensive game (since hes supposed to be the best center in the league), which is why im agreeing with shaq on this one

Howard shoulda never put on the Superman cape.
Shaq said Dwight was jockin him. That there was only one real Superman.

What? I said its NOT about comparing the 2
Simply that dwight should be better on offense. Its not that complicated

And let's be real. Dwight hasn't gotten any better since he played in Orlando.

Shaq dominated on offense.
If you think Dwight should dominate, then you are comparing him to dominant offensive players like Shaq.
Dwight is not Shaq.
Dwight has to be set up to score. If you use him correctly, he can get 25 points a game off of alley-oops, pick and rolls, free throws, etc.
He's not going to get on the low block and get easy buckets. If that's what you are expecting, then you want him to be something he's not.

You haven't watched him play at all this year obviously. His post game is much better than it was in Orlando. Not surprising that people are talking out of their arse though.

Youre not getting my point
I dont care that Shaq was the one talking. Im just saying that if Dwight is the best center in the league, then he should be a little better on offense. That is why i agree with shaqs point
I never said Dwight should be doing what shaq did

His stats are actually a lil down since he left Orlando. The posts moves are better, but with all the athleticism Dwight has, the upper body strength, and jumping ability, he hasn't gotten any better.
Posted on 4/20/14 at 10:20 pm to Gtothemoney
His stats are down because he is playing with a 25 point scorer and a 17 point scorer. In this offense he's not asked to do what he did in Orlando. It doesn't run through him, but he's gotten better in the post.

Harden starting to heat up.

In this point in his career, Dwight should be able to carry this team on his back when he has to. Dwight is not that caliber of a player. He's piece #3, when he should be piece #1.
Posted on 4/20/14 at 10:30 pm to Gtothemoney
So if Dwight is playing with LeBron, he should be the #1 option? No.
And since he's playing with Harden, he shouldn't be the #1 option.

Not worth arguing. People hate Dwight. It is what it is.
