Live or Die Magic 383 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 I'm not going to post any of this article in here, but basically it is another of ESPN's and Hollinger's convoluted formulas for determining if any current NBA players have a shot at breaking the all-time marks. Dwight Howard is mentioned at having a shot at the career record for personal fouls, missed free throws, turnovers, and finally a good one: defensive rebounds. Rashard Lewis also has the second best shot at the career 3-pointers record. Check it out, it's an interesting read: http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/insider/columns/story?co...ght%26lid%3dtab1pos1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secretly Space Jesus 670 Report post Posted March 14, 2008 His method is pretty silly. According to his stat, Dwight will only play at a high level for another 9 years? Then what? He just stops playing? The whole issue with most of those players that set those records were that they had incredible longevity. Karl Malone won an MVP at 35. God, Hollinger loves math way too much.

Look at it as a big picture... as Dwight continues to grow, his chances will increase. Imagine him playing at just the level he is playing at right now. As he gets older, his 'shelf life' will expand and his chances will increase significantly. It's not a slight on Dwight, it's taking into account the average playing life of NBA players. I had the same intial reaction to this that you had, but once I thought about it for a while, a new perspective set in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
