how hard is it to understand that Howard can't make a shot outside of 6 feet and has no post game?

Then how exactly is he getting 20.7 ppg?

Because he is bigger and stronger than most others, not because he is 'skilled'. Having size is not a basketball skill.

Cleaning the boards?

Dunks require height and athleticism. A jump shot/hook shot/3 point shot/fade away require offensive skill.

Ok I see your argument now.

But does it really matter? Who cares if you get your points down low or if you can shoot a fade away as long as you get the points?

And rebounding definitely is a basketball skill.

I would say 3rd, he is much more physical than DW. But i also have the feeling that he plays much harder against NOH than other teams.

Yao
DH (reverse the order if you want)































everyone else.
Thats why I say he is one of the best, not the best. Yes DH, Yoa, and T.Duncan are better, but TC is up there.
