The former Howard debuted into the league as a champion, and in that traditional basketball era, he still cashed in on his talent, played his personal value and strength, and was worthy of the title of "chosen son". You know, at his peak, he led the Magic to the Finals stage, and won the best defensive player of the year. At that time, he was calling for wind and rain on the inside, was a "big killer" in the restricted area, and his peak performance was extremely dominant, and he was able to replace James' existence alone. I think it is also, at that time, Howard integrated attack and defense and was the super center of the league.
But times are slowly changing, James-led Heat played small-ball rudimentary performance, and Curry pushed small-ball play to the peak. One is a master of conversion offense, the other is the all-time three-point king, and the two have made speed and three-point revolution, the two elements of the small-ball revolution, the keywords of the year. In such a wave, Howard's influence was slowly weakened, and coupled with the decline in athletic ability caused by age, he gradually lost the glory of the interior hegemon.
The current NBA's requirements for centers are obviously higher, and Jokic is the benchmark for centers in the new era, retaining traditional interior ability, but also having strategy and projection ability. Although Howard can occasionally shoot three-pointers, it is only the "icing on the cake" that the overall situation has been decided; The decline in his defensive ability made him unable to become the favored object of many teams in the league, and Jordan Jr. and others were eliminated by the times. As a result, Howard was reduced to a no-ball situation in the NBA.
Fortunately, the overseas Taiwan T1 league threw an olive branch to him, and Howard was able to continue to contribute his value in the basketball field, and the first arrival made the home box office revenue of the Clouded Leopards break the all-time record. However, as he was in poor form and missed too many games, the fans' enthusiasm for him slowly faded and eventually he lost his favor.
In addition to the Clouded Leopards not doing some work, Howard himself has many problems, which has led to fan dissatisfaction. When he took turns, he actually participated in celebrity dinners in private, and often appeared in some bars; In fact, when he first arrived in Taiwan, his performance in this aspect was not very good: he took a photo with beautiful women in the gym, and even privately praised the dynamics of the clouded leopard cheerleaders. These behaviors reflect Howard's lack of concentration, as if coming to Taiwan is for tourism, not playing in the professional league.
Just when we all thought he would converge, he did something similar, didn't he? When Howard was eating at the restaurant, he took an intimate photo with the female artist, put one arm around each other's shoulders, and smiled happily at the camera. You know, when I took photos with other beautiful women in the gym before, I also used this offensive way. It can be said that Howard has repeatedly taught him, maybe he will lose the love of Taiwanese fans, right?
Who is this female artist strong? She is a member of the cheerleading team of the Central Professional Baseball team, with super good looks and top figure; After the group photo, she gave Howard a photo album of her own with her photos. Because he has a very good body, he is called "the peach of the world" by fans, and his popularity in the fan circle is also very high. After the group photo, he posted a post on social media to express his joy.
Now, Howard's single exchange for Zhan Huang is a joke, why? James, who is older than him, is still active in the league, but he himself has no ball to play in the NBA, which is the result of lack of discipline and concentration. If he could be immersed in the basketball world like James, maybe Howard could still gain a foothold in the NBA, why did he end up in such a field?
