Instead, he says the exchange had to do with confusion over whether it was supposed to be him or Blake Griffin involved with a play.

“Pop was diagramming a play for me, and then as he showed us what to do he kept saying, ‘Blake,’” Howard said according to the LA Times. “So Blake and I are confused, but he keeps saying Blake, so Blake takes off his jersey and goes into the game.

“Pop sees me and wants to know why I’m not in the game running the play, so I tell him he kept saying Blake so Blake went in. He wasn’t swearing at me.”

kind of lol mostly sad

media quotes dwight, diwght accuses media of twisting his words http://www.latimes.com/sports/basketball/nba/lakers/la-sp-lakers-fyi-20130307,0,5226872.story

"He got away with a shot," Howard said, according to Yahoo! Sports. "I will remember this game. I will remember that shot. He said he wasn't trying to do it. You can look at the play and see it for yourself. I will take care of it later."

"I can shoot the ball from anywhere. I've just got to have confidence in myself," Howard said.

Dwight Howard to voice cartoon turkey in time-traveling turkey movie

Two turkeys from opposite sides of the tracks must put aside their differences and team up to travel back in time to change the course of history - and get turkey off the holiday menu for good.

dwight should go to cbs on wednesdays at 8:30, do something family-friendly, follow his bliss.

dwight's a jesus dude, iirc, mark jackson might be able to get him to harness his talent more effectively.

dwight has harnessed his talent extremely effectively up to this point

dwight's a jesus dude w/ 8 children by 8 diff't women iirc

dwight thread needs every post to begin with 'dwight'

aldwight, is how its going so far

@MySportsLegion: A Houston adult store is offering Dwight Howard free condoms for life if he signs with the Rockets.”

there's something he actually needs

haha

@WojYahooNBA Holed away in Colorado, the Lakers are still prominent in Dwight Howard's mind, sources tell Y! Rockets remain strong, Warriors lurking.

Dwight Howard said he bought a purple car because he was inspired by Thanos and the sacrifices he had to make to accomplish his goal. Man.

lmao

Dwight Howard tried to coin a nickname for the Lakers' second unit tonight: "The Bad News Bears. Not the Bad News Bears in a bad way, but 'we're gonna bring bad news to the other team.' That type of bad news."

— Kyle Goon (@kylegoon) November 4, 2019

he was so good against the spurs. he'll be starting soon. the lbj-ad-dwight frontcourt is so huge and athletic.

Dwight Howard is no longer eating 'McDonald's, chicken wings and honey buns every single day'

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/dwight-howard-is-no-longer-eating-mc-donalds-chicken-wings-and-honey-buns-every-single-day-161434689.html

he stopped eating candy but then it took him another 5 years to not eat mcdonalds every day

i swear he has the same set of quotes every season just a slight variation on each one

Why am I not surprised this dumbass already got pinched for not wearing a mask

lol seems like easy money in retrospect

dwight just generally not big on prophylactics

Lol. If you count the farts too my mans got a real problem with expelling

he's batman now

Sam Amick: "Dwight Howard apparently liked my idea of going with the "Batman" moniker in this series where he has bullied the "Joker."

"Batman's coming for you, Joker!" he yelled at Nikola Jokic from the bench three times near the end of the first quarter..."

lmao

Dwight stiffs snake caregivers

Dwight says he has started calling Tobias Harris “Prince Harris” because after the shot at the end of the Lakers game, “it was game...blouses”

SIGH

its painful how hard he tries and fails to be funny

he clearly grew up watching a lot of eddie murphy

referring to dwight as "the champ" is a weird reading of his career imo

he claimed it to be true himself before he even was one

seems like the kind of show that would appeal to him: glitzy, cartoonish, stupid, but with a big audience who cheer and scream like mad for every C-List celebrity who shows up.

I think that clip gave me a seizure. The kids these days with their entertainments, I tell ya

I still can't believe this show is real

singing competition shows seem like such an old fashioned idea, like a thing that was popular in the mid 20th century and no ones thought of them since, except of course theyve been everywhere for the past 20 years

the masked one is a copy of a korean show iirc

Dwight Howard was a surprise participant at the WWE Tryout in Nashville today. He told me he legit wants to join the WWE one day. pic.twitter.com/LiUnNqPsdv

shaqs hate for dwight has always been funny

Shaquille O’Neal agrees Dwight Howard being in Hall of Fame is questionable after matchup with Sim Bhullar: https://t.co/U2E4qTSPvm

— NBACentral (@TheNBACentral) January 20, 2023

that is a large man

yeah he makes dwight look really small

dwight is such a clear hofer its a testament to how annoying he is that this conversation is happening

yup

would be hilarious if he didnt make it on grounds of being annoying lol. sorry no one wants to hear your hof speech pal

i mean it's 50/50 he has to wait a few years as punishment for his jokes
