    I pray he see this and get the flowers he deserve. 🙏🏿💪🏿 Keep up the great work guys
  • @watchagonadoo
    And this man is not a top 75 player in the history. Crazy. Prime Dwight was a joy to watch and a menace on the court. P.S. Shaq is a baby
  • Prime Dwight was incredible. It's sad to see guys that relied on athleticism dwindle in production with age and injuries
  • @kevinmao7559
    Prime D12 was different! Man I’m glad I witnessed his prime
  • Imagine if that magic team played in todays era. A dominant big surrounded by 4 shooters witn green lights anytime to shoot.
  • @Deputy567
    One of the Greatest Defenders and Big Men! 🎉

    I think rule changes played a part in Dwight’s slight downfall as well as the injuries. I say this about Blake Griffin too. Those two guys were seen as absolute studs after a few years in the league. A lot of people would have had those two as the guys to take over the league one day. Then the rule changes came in and they had to step aside for guys like Steph and Harden to dominate the league.

    Man's shoulders alone are built for the Hall of Fame.

    Give this man his flowers three consecutive DPY and it not like Rudy Gobert (no disrespect) but Dwight was a Bucket from ten feet from the hoop sad too see honestly and he was a big part of why the laker beat the nuggets cause Yoo them nuggets was on one but fr give the man his flowers BEST DEFENSE PLAYER D12/39😅
  • @Watcher4876
    Its crazy how AD was considered over D12 for the top 75 list. AD is talented, thats for sure. But I will consider prime D12 over prime? (idk if he hit his prime) AD any day
  • @Juricostar
    One of the most disrespected player in the NBA. He was a monster in the paint!
  • @frenchdonut22
    One of my favorite players of all time, behind only Melo. His magic days were dominant! Best center I’ve ever seen play
  • What story---- that he is a down to earth, kind, humble, and very very talented ball player 🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩
  • @Abel-yo9mf
    He was also second place in mvp in 2011 behind D Rose
