How to score with Dwight Howard?

Mon Jan 26, 2009 11:50 am

I know that the subject is ridiculous but I cannot score with D. Howard. He gets double-teamed all the time, resulting in jump balls or ugly shots. I can pass out of the double team often but it is not that realistic either when Howard gets assist after assist.

I prefer Turkoglu...he shoots the ball well and can even hit contested threes.

Howard would have had the chance to make his first two points on a fast break, went up for a powerful dunk, everything looked like an in-your-face-dunk...but no, Varejao blocked his dunk. LOL It was horrible.

Also use the aggressive modifier, always, when he's has the right position.

in 2k7, i loved using the triangle (Y button) to do that spin gather move which helps you get by some defenders for a layup or dunk.

I hold down the right trigger (back down for me) and the hook shot or dunk he shoots is usually money. He seems like he can back down most people pre-patch. After the patch, it seems like he could back down everyone but the strongest/biggest defenders.

if you wanna play for real, then post up. if you have 2 sec to go and you're tied, give it to howard, face the rim, turbo, then dunk it for the win. he sometimes windmills it as if there's no defender there.
