Dwight Howard is the best young big man in the NBA and if there was ever any doubt, lets take a look at his block against the New Jersey Nets on Friday night.
Courtney Lee thought he had a clear path to the goal until Howard came from the weakside and instead of sending the ball into the fifth row like he could have, he grabbed it out of the air with one hand. Howard has seemed to figure it out, like Bill Russell use to do, that when you block it like that, then the other team doesn't get to inbound the ball and you can start the break.
Howard added 3 more blocks to that one in addition to 20 points and 22 rebounds in the victory, but forget about that and just enjoy that block one more time while trying to figure out if that is actually a block or a rebound.
