it's also that Orlando may not be *that* good...yes I'm about to disparage my Hawks but through the 1st few rounds they had it easy. Nelson had a field day against Bibby and even Felton/Augustin. Neither frontcourt presented any challenge for Howard.

I'm not saying they suck or anything, but they did have a pretty easy road to the conf Finals and now that they're facing a team that a) has a center who can at least guard Howard straight up and b) a PG who can neutralize Nelson and outplay him, they're in trouble

I'm starting to believe this is true. Simmons touched on it a little bit.

Is Howard really a star or just a great defensive player? As good as he is I think I would rather have a guy like Noah on my team.

Because of salary cap issues? Dwight is and will be clearly the better player. I'm still unsure of what they should do with him. I'm not sure if he'll ever develop offensively. I agree with JVG that he needs to focus all his attention right now on defense and stop doing awkward offensive things that lead to offensive fouls.

Period. Noah knows his limits and you can see that he works on his game. I can't tell Howard is doing anything.

I have no idea if Ewing had anything to do with it, and obviously players will get better as they come into the league, but I think Howard has developed up untill now pretty well. He's alot more polished than he used to be. Last year or two seems to be kinda stagnant when it comes to developing, but he's still by far the most dominating force in the paint in the league.

Could be true but I doubt that is the case. Ewing helped Yao.
