rolling thread for chronicling the misadventures of dwight howard, nba center

Beal and Wall are literally going to murder him

...and then each other

for my part i believe in his 15th season dwight howard will definitely come to resemble either anthony davis or kevin durant, two of the most physically gifted basketball players ever who are playing in their primes and in ways that dwight howard has never, ever, remotely played like before

DWIGHT HOWARD DAD JOKES ALERT

Reporter to Dwight Howard: “Do you envision shooting any 3-pointers this year.”

Dwight: Hold on...

[He closes eyes and makes an intense face for three seconds.]

Dwight, again: Yep, I just made 3.

While the injury is not a serious one for the center, he may miss out on the Wizards' opening game against the Miami Heat. Howard's days as DPOY may be over, but he is still a valuable asset to the Wizards, as he came in to replace Marcin Gortat.

Howard is known around the NBA as being one of the top defenders of his generation. Though he's jumped from team to team in recent years, he still makes a difference whenever he is on the hardwood. With his massive size, opposing players know better than to try and get cute around the rim.

source cause there were some fake woj accounts posting this

xp ok yeah

This covers it in one tweet.
Raquel Willis on Dwight

well that doesn't cover the actual story.....

eventually these idiots are going to learn that everyone knows how to save receipts

It covers the perspective people seem to be missing in their rush to use the word tranny.

:////////////////////////////////////

I hope Dwight gets what he’s due for being an abusive threatening asshole. I don’t give two shits who he fucks as long as he doesn’t try to fuck them over

having yr goons threaten someones life, thats bad

Yeah

the ineptitude is.....exactly what i would expect from people who associate with dwight howard

Tried to figure out what the hell was going on via Twitter, got subjected to an endless stream of terrible homophobic/transphobic garbage way to go America

Tried to figure out what the hell was going on via Twitter, got subjected to an endless stream of terrible homophobic/transphobic garbage way to go America

Same

I need an explain like I’m five ... and also not an asshole homophobe.

the very short version is:

trans woman claims she was in an exclusive relationship with dwight, ended it when it was no longer very exclusive on his end, began getting shady anonymous messages involving bribes then threats, traced them back to dwight’s ppl including his “pastor,” saved a variety of electronic evidence along the way.

some ppl on twitter saying this same person tried to out playboi carti and it turned out to be fake but idk

the thing about the secret phone number reveling app does seem kinda sus

yeah. i cannot vouch for any of the electronic evidence presented.

yes, altho to clarify the accuser in this case is a gay man

So was this all fake or what?

i guess? i didnt see anything conclusive but no news sites touched it

interesting timing on the back surgery. out 3-4 months, essentially out for the year. career likely in jeopardy i would think.

it's been quite the misadventure

Dwight is such an inimitable and curiously indescribable figure, i was trying to explain his downfall the other night to someone..."well see he was legitimately great, considered to be likable, and then he went to the Laker and got on Kobe's bad side and started telling dad jokes..."

i couldn't do it past that point.

lmao

the candy addiction is crucial imo

i guess i could call him a controversy-free* Alex Rodriguez, and somehow the gulf between his desperation to be liked and the reality is even more enormous than A-Rod's.

he's never had a major scandal one can point to, he just shows up with a new franchise and walks into the locker room cracking jokes with his teammates and putting up 16/12 and pretty soon rumors are out that he's going to be fragged on the next road trip.

(*we'll see what occurs with this recent business)

god i always forget about the candy thing

the candy addiction is just idk its perfect?

has dwight been watching demolition man or

someone online said he's turned into bobby digital and that seemed otm

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."

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