In front of the idiom of prodigal son turning back, it can be said that Howard thoroughly interprets these four words. The once arrogant monster, the existence of James , as the age grows and life pressure is forced, The former first center also became a blue-collar center. He worked hard in the team and was no longer the first choice for the team's offense. However, in this case, Howard still won the championship he yearned for with the team as he wished, but in After winning the championship, Howard still went to different teams, and now there is no ball to play. No team has extended an olive branch to him yet.
Howard's physical talent was also the top in the league. During the magic period, double arm guards became his symbol. At the same time, he could switch to James, who was at the top alone. When people thought he would win the championship like James, but in the finals On the field, Kobe was defeated by . In the following years, Warcraft kept moving to multiple teams. No team was willing to train him. He was the core of the team building and kept leaving and joining. When he joined in 12 years, When Kobe led the Lakers, fans thought that with Kobe Howard and Nash's combination, it was definitely a favorite to win the championship, but the good times didn't last long. Conflicts broke out in the team, conflicts in the locker room intensified, Howard and Kobe had a quarrel, Kobe believed that Howard wouldn't How could Howard, who was hardworking and arrogant, endure this anger? He left the Lakers after the season. In the season, Kobe, Howard and Nash's combination of Lakers had a very poor record. In addition, Howard's private life was chaotic, fans called Howard a prodigal son .
As we grow older, coupled with the advent of the small ball era, centers like Howard have been eliminated, resulting in Howard having no ball to play for a long time and no source of income. In addition, Howard has suffered multiple chaotic private life. The illegitimate child, coupled with huge compensation and living expenses, almost broke Howard. At that time, Howard lost his arrogance at that time and kept recommending himself to various teams, and opportunities were always given to those who were prepared. The Lakers in 2019 Howard signed, and Howard worked hard after joining the team, doing what his blue-collar center should do, and seriously implementing the team's tactics. Coupled with the cooperation with James, Howard, who was 19 years old, broke out again in second place. Spring, in playoffs, became a rebounding monster, and caught the defensive rebounds together, making fans feel that Howard is back at the peak. With the efforts of the Lakers team, he won the championship that season, and Howard finally got it. After the championship he had always dreamed of, Howard cried with joy at the moment of winning the championship, thinking that everything he did was worth it.
After the end of this season, Howard called James, hoping that James could fight for a veteran's basic salary contract from the management, because he faced huge fees, Howard also needed money. At the same time, James also agreed to Howard's request, but There is still no news now. Maybe the Lakers management really thinks Howard is no longer suitable. Finally, I hope to see Howard again on the NBA field.
