Dwight Howard was drafted by the Magic, traded to the Lakers. He decided to home to Houston, I would too. Great city.

[NBAConfidential]

wonder how much hate this video will get from laker fans and howard haters....

[roadstone]

Dwight finally playing and acting like back in his Orlando days! Good to see ya back Dwight!

[SamDerbyshire]

Love Dwight, going off what's said in the video he looks 20x happier in Houston than he was at lakers, and before I get shit from Lakers fans, im not hating it's a fact look how well he's playing

[natee]

I will never truly get why people hate on Dwight Howard so much. 

[MrJay]

Apparently "20st" is a day according to the NBA.

[wesbesttreacts]

I gained so much about Dwight in this video -_-

[txranger]

I luv howard, hes like a big baby and houstons his pacifier

[roadstone]

That guy that was wearing number 12 last year for L.A. was NOT Dwight Howard. This is the real Dwight.

[ASantosTV]

Good for him, enjoying himself. Ultimately I don't see him winning a championship this year but at least he's having fun. Maybe in the next few years when he develops his post game they'll be lethal

[ssclapd]

As a laker fan, and I've been one for awhile. I can honestly say, I am happy for Dwight. I'm happy he's back performing like we all know he can. He's racking up huge rebounding numbers and scoring efficiently. This year he definitely deserves his All Star votes. Laker Nation is just upset because he was never this good in purple and gold. Wether it was injuries or his lack of commitment, or even the fact D'Antoni is not a post move kind of coach, he's made the right choice being in Houston. Worked with The Dream, and it's good to see him well. As a fan of the game, its just good to see the big guy dominating again. That being said, if Houston play Lakers, I'm always gonna be rooting against the guy.. Nothing personal anymore..

I'm a lakers fan and I can't hate this guy

[saraskulas]

Ahmad Rashad doesn't age. He's 64 and he looks the same as he did when he interviewed Shaq as a rookie 20 years ago.

[AyeItsCDub]

did anyone else think he was gonna say "... as comfortable and happy when you hit that three. " lol  but real talk i'm glad he's in Houston it's really a win / win situation

[toysofarkham]

I'm not a Howard hater but its not about having fun. He doesn't have a winners mentality. Bird, magic, mj, kobe... Wouldn't ever make a comment like that

[OfficiallyXIV]

If I see "the Butler" one more So help me God!

[elijahabraham]

Happy for him. Kobe sucked the life out of Dwight.

[TheAaronBrookes]

No hate but I don't think he will win a ring

[xDjuicyxD]

I'm from Houston; I don't really like D12. I mean he is supposed to be the BEST big man but I'm not seeing it bro. I'd take Brook Lopez or Roy Hibbert over D12, anyday anytime bro. D12 might be good but not the BEST. I'm sad we got this guy. We should've gotten a better C who has some go-to moves and could hit some free throws atleast, let alone jumpers.
