He was the Defensive Player of the Year for three consecutive years. We have to consider both sides of the court. Van Gundy recalled how Dwight was capable of making a difference thanks to his extraordinary athletic abilities, especially on the defensive end of the court, to the point of winning the Defensive Player of the Year for three consecutive years (2009, 2010, and 2011): There was no one else at that level, in my opinion Stan Van Gundy His coach at the time in Orlando, Stan Van Gundy, during his appearance on the Knuckleheads podcast, recalled how between 20, Howard was one of the best players in the NBA alongside Kobe Bryant and LeBron James:ĭuring the time I was there, the only players who were at his level were LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, who was still playing.
