Is Dwight Howard an Elite Big Man?

[Muser]

I'd take him over Bonner

I'd take any player, big or small playing Centre than Bonner.

Watching shaq he has three moves.

1. should to defender, then dunk, now days a layin.
2. baseline fadeaway
3. spin and dunk

Watchiing howard he has two moves

1. muscle defender, dunk
2. a ty hook shot.

However, I´d still take him in a heartbeat, he can learn. Shaq took a while to develop his arsenal, he was all dunks his first few seasons too.

Nah, Shaq had an array of moves even when he was young. You forgot to add Shaq's baby jump hook in the lane, he did that effectively for like 15 years.

Nevertheless, D12 just needs a couple of more post moves to his arsenal and he'll be the best center in the NBA by light years.

Shaq had a dozen good go-to type moves in the post by the time he was Howard's age. Dwight at this point is more like Amare, relying on his athleticism instead of his skills.

Give the guy a break, he's only 24 years old. Give him 3-4 more years and i think he'll be able to fully polish his post-moves and become an elite big man taking over a game.
