Howard and Paul are well-received fans of NBA superstars, and have good results in their careers. Basically, both of them can enter the Hall of Fame securely after retiring. But which of these two people's historical status is higher?
Let's first compare the personal honors of the two individuals. Howard was the No. 1 pick in the 2004 NBA. At his peak, he claimed to be a man who could change James alone. He has won the best defensive player award three times in his professional career, and has scored 8 best team, including 5 first team, once second team, and two third team. 5 best defensive team, 5 rebounds, 2 blocked shots
Chris Paul was the fourth overall pick in 2005. Known as the god of point guards by fans, he has won 10 best team in his career, including 4 first team, 5 second team, and once three team. The best defensive team 9 times. King with four assists and six steals.
From an honor point of view, Paul leads Howard in the number of best team and best defensive team, which shows that Paul's peak period is relatively long, but Howard's peak defensive period is too effective and won three best The defensive player is better than Paul in this respect, and the two are basically tied in terms of personal honor.
Let's take a look at the results of the two leaders. The best record of the two leaders is that they did not win the championship and entered the finals once. Howard won a championship with the Lakers in 19 years, but at that time he was no longer the core of the team and had little influence on historical status. In this regard, the two are almost equal.
In the third aspect, comparing the two people’s popularity with fans, Howard has been selected to the All-Star lineup 8 times, and Paul has been selected to the All-Star lineup 11 times. In this regard, Paul has a slight advantage
In the end, we can read In comparison with the historical status of each person’s position, Howard’s center position has many great gods, and the ancient great gods have Russell. Chamberlain , Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, etc., and later, the four major centers Admiral David Robinson, Ewing , O'Neill , Big Dream, etc. Howard is difficult to surpass. In the center position, Howard is difficult to rank in the top 10. On the contrary, in the position of Paul's point guard, only Magic Johnson, Cullinash, Smiling Assassin and other point guards can surpass Paul. In this position, Paul can almost rank in the top five, which has the upper hand over Paul.
From the four perspectives, I think Paul and Howard are very close in history, and Paul has the upper hand. What do you think, welcome to discuss
