Howard is inducted into the Hall of Fame? Let s take a look at the explosion performance of the peak season of Warcraft

Howard, the Warcraft, has entered the Hall of Fame. I see that many people in the comment section say that any cat or dog can be entered, and any such a cat can be entered. The threshold for the Hall of Fame is really low now. Does the elder brother who said this have any misunderstanding of Howard? Eight All-Stars, three DPOYs, five rebounding champions, and two blocking champions. What's wrong with entering the Hall of Fame based on 2008-2012 alone, double first-team superstars for four consecutive years? In terms of honors alone, Howard is much harder than Big Ben, than Loops and others.

I just don't know if Anthony, the little melon selected in the same class, will receive a text message from Howard - Brother

, and lend me 20 yuan to have a meal.

Now on various video platforms, there are many different opinions about Howard's comprehensive strength. Some say he is very powerful. He is just like playing with a double 20 in a game, and some say he is a blue-collar worker and his historical status is seriously overestimated. For example, in this article by Mr. Yang Yi and Fireworks, I will analyze in detail what level, characteristics and strength of Howard is a player in Warcraft.

To analyze Howard's strength, the first thing to do is to look at his physical condition. Howard's height is 208 cm (there is another saying is 206 cm), his weight has been maintained at about 120 kilograms all year round, his physical fitness is explosive, he can hold the moon in nine days above, and he can catch turtles in five oceans below. The muscle strips on the upper body, which are similar to bullfrogs, are full of the beauty of strength. How can I use appropriate language to describe Howard's muscles in this body -

look very chewy.

But Howard has a very obvious shortcoming in physical fitness, that is, the strength of the lower limbs is insufficient, the specific manifestation is that the hips are not big enough. You should know that the explosion of lower limb strength comes from the hip muscle group, so the size of the buttocks is very important for NBA players, especially inside players.

For example, the biggest advantage of Charles Barkley's ability to use less than two meters in height was that the top-notch NBA was that Duke Barkley had a pair of peerless buttocks, which were really big and round, with tight muscles and sleek. When Duke Barkley raised his butt and played with his back alone, the opponent could only sigh and sigh, helpless.

The lack of lower limb strength has led Howard to be very afraid of heavy centers with a height and size that is obviously larger than him. If this heavy center is equipped with some skills, Howard will basically only be exposed. This is also the main reason why Yao Ming can make a critical hit every time he encounters Howard.

Besides, although Howard is not good at technology, he is not a pure and rough man like Jordan Jr. Capela who can't eat anything except cakes. He has certain inside singles ability. Howard's turning skills are very smooth, and with Howard's body shape, strength, and explosive power, as long as he doesn't meet the heavy center mentioned just now, Howard doesn't have to eat and live in the opposite side one by one. During the 2008 Olympics, Howard even ate Yao Ming on his back.

Furthermore, the top Howard's small right hand hook on the front is quite accurate. Note that it must be the front of the frame, and it may not be easy to use at all. Therefore, Howard's most common independent offensive routine is to use the ball after the left and right ribs, use his body to first lean on it and observe the defensive layout. If the opponent does not attack, he will connect the ball once or jump to the front of the basket and then grab two points with his hook.

Howard: I also paid money at Olajuwon training camp.

Finally, although Howard lacks strength in the lower limbs, it also has advantages, that is, he is relatively flexible. When he encounters a heavy center that moves slowly, Howard can still hold the ball and attack the box head-on, but he can hit the box at most twice, and the third stroke basically has to be lost. In addition, Howard's offense also has a second attack, and the pick-and-roll is gone, and these are not mentioned.

It should be noted that although Howard is not purely given on the offensive end, but has certain skills and lethality, he is still a player who is more defensive than attack.

The Magic head coach Van Gundy tailored a "one-star shot" tactic for Howard. Simply put, Howard was in the inside line. As long as he had a pinch of the opponent, Howard immediately threw the ball out, and four bird guns on the outside line lined up and shot in turn.

The tactics are generally not a problem, but there is an obvious shortcoming, that is, it is okay to play against weak teams, but when you encounter a strong team with luxurious interior equipment, Howard cannot open the situation, and the team will pull it. That is to say, the higher the level of the game, the more difficult it will be for the Magic team to play. Overall, Howard can protect the team's lower limit, but the top of the upper limit is also very clear. This is fully reflected from the year when Howard's career is the highest. In the 2008-2009 season, Howard was 24 years old this year, and he participated in 79 regular season games, averaging 20.6 points, 13.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.0 steals, 2.9 blocks, and his shooting percentage was as high as 57.2%. In the Magic's home game against the Bobcats on February 17, 2009, Howard hit a critical hit against Okafor, scoring a career-high 46 points, 19 rebounds and 8 blocks.

After the regular season, Howard won the rebounding champion for the second time in his career, and was crowned DPOY and block kings for the first time. The best team was selected for the double first team (the best team first team and the best defensive team first team). The season's MVP selection ranked fourth, second only to James, Kobe and Wade. In the same year, the Magic entered the playoffs with a record of 59 wins and 23 losses..

The Magic's first round opponent was the Philadelphia 76ers. At that time, Howard had become a nightmare for the Eastern teams inside. The effect Howard had in the Eastern team was similar to the peak O'Neal - as long as the Eastern team came up with results, they had to stock up on the inside with a few players who were not good at playing, but had a tall and touching weight.

76ers have four meat shields in the inside. The starting center is 28-year-old defensive center Sam El Delhamport. Although his height is 211 cm, he weighs only 110 kg. The substitute center is 208 cm tall and 105 kg Theo Ratliff is known for his strength and physical fitness when he was young, and he won three block kings, but at that time he was already 36 years old. In addition, there is a Reggie Evans who is only 203 cm tall and very capable of grabbing rebounds, and Marlis Spetts who is 208 cm tall and 115 kg in the second year of his career.

Why do we need to point out the height and weight of these people? The same goes for the same sentence. Height and weight cannot suppress Howard. Howard hit them like a game. In the first game, Howard made 11 of 13 shots and scored 31 points and 16 rebounds, and beat the 76ers' inside line. The 76ers' inside line is not as much as Howard's data. However, the 76ers' forward Donyel Marshall's character exploded. He made three consecutive unreasonable three-pointers in the fourth quarter. Iguodala made a perfect kill of the Magic in 2.2 seconds.

The Magic can be said to be overwhelming the 76ers in the entire round of the series. Although the final result was 4:276ers, 76 actually won two games with a winning goal (in addition to G1, there was also a 2.2-second winning goal from G3), Howard averaged 26 points, 16 rebounds and 3 blocks per game, and his shooting percentage was as high as 68%.

The second round opponent was last year's championship-level team Boston Celtics. Garnett, the Celtics, was reimbursed for the season that year, and there were only two pure centers in the team at one time. The starting center was Kendrick Perkins, who was both tall and weight-worthy, and the substitute center was Mickey Moore, who was 211 cm tall and weighed only 100 kilograms.

Although Perkins does not have anything except for the top defense ability of a heavy center, what Howard is most afraid of is Perkins who is thick-skinned and can withstand or resist. However, Perkins has a problem, which is that he loves to attack and fouls at every turn. He contributed as many as 29 fouls in seven games, averaged more than four per game, and averaged one foul every 8.5 minutes.

When the big fat cannot play, Mickey Moore is too thin, the Celtics can only let the second fat Davis and the team soul Scala Brian take the lead, and use the beast-cutting tactic if necessary. The result is quite tragic. The second fat Davis played a total of 218 minutes in the series, contributing 31 fouls, and committing once every 7 minutes. As for Scala Brian, it is even worse. During the 166 minutes of playing time, a total of 29 fouls were made, and once every 5.7 minutes were committed.

But to be honest, Fat Perkins' excellent top defense ability still makes Howard extremely uncomfortable to play. Howard only scored 16 points in 7 games, with a shooting percentage of only 55%, but he can contribute 17 rebounds per game and averaging 4.1 frontcourt rebounds, which makes the Celtics' insider depressed.

The Magic played seven games with the Celtics in this round. The reason why the Magic could still pass the game when Howard was not attacking was due to the outstanding performance of four shotguns outside Rashad Lewis, Michael Pitrus, JJ Redick and Tkoglu.

However, many people exaggerated the role of the four-shot gun outside. They said that the real winner of the Magic that year was the stadium brain Tkoglu. Tkoglu had a role, but his role was definitely not as great as Howard. It was precisely because Howard had a strong restraining force in the inside that Tkoglu, Lewis and others performed well.

After crossing the Celtics, the Magic faced the challenge of the Cavaliers led by LeBron James. The Cavaliers' interior configuration is relatively luxurious. Big Z Ilgoscas, 221 cm tall, Anderson Valaijo, 211 cm tall, 35-year-old Ben Wallace, and 208 cm tall Joe Smith.

Series G1, both sides played with high-voltage water pipes and wires, sparks and lightning all the way. The Cavaliers' strategy is to let Howard attack, but they firmly double-team Howard's rebounds. When grabbing rebounds, there are always two tall Cavaliers players around Howard squeezed him behind him. The Cavaliers think that Howard's strongest is his rebounds, not his offense.

Facts have proved that the Cavaliers' strategy is correct. The Magic did not play Howard's rebounding game with extremely difficult. Although Howard scored 30 points on the offensive end, he only snatched 13 rebounds, and he graduated with six fouls at the last moment. James scored 49 points in the whole game, but at the end, he was defeated by Rashad Lewis' three-pointer.

G2, the Cavaliers doubled Howard in the game. Howard only scored 10 points and grabbed 18 rebounds, but only 4 rebounds in the frontcourt. The Magic can deal with the Cavaliers until the end, and rely on the outstanding performance of four outside shotguns. At the last moment of the game, James contributed a final three-pointer with the lights on the ball.

Howard averaged 26 points per game, but had only 13 rebounds per game. The reason why the Magic could eliminate the Cavaliers 4:2 was because Rashad Lewis, Tkoglu, Pitrus, Raf Alstom and others played super high levels. The Eastern Conference Finals level game is already the highest limit for Howard as the core of the team building. If you want to move up, you have to rely on the performance of other players.

Then there is the finals, Howard completely pulled it, averaging 15 points and 15 rebounds per game, shooting percentage is only 48%, and the Magic was eliminated by the Lakers 1:4.

Why can't the Howard Finals work?

is very simple, because there is a big center Andrew Bynum who is 213 cm tall and weighs 130 kg in the Lakers, and a big Gasol who is 213 cm tall and weighs 115 kg in the Lakers. The big Gasol behind is a technical flow, and Howard can't defend it. Bynum in front directly crushes Howard, and Howard's offense is instantly unsatisfied.

This is Howard's playoff performance in his peak year of his career. Howard's overall strength this year is almost 80% of the peak O'Neal. He deserves his reputation in the Hall of Fame and should not have any doubts.
