Idk, he is kind of a child. I think he will love just having fun out there and enjoy the fans loving him and positive media coverage.
He’s been really criticized by fans and the media for a while now, some of it deserving. But I would think it gets rough after a while. I see him just enjoying his last years of playing messing around and playing the game the way he wants to.
Sure, he’s past his prime for the NBA and he knows it.
He’s coming here because he knows there will be little
(to zero) pressure on him to produce. It will make for a
low-key, easy living end to his career. The Taiwanese will cheer for him whether his Leopards win or lose.
A million bucks to play a game he loves without being under the scrutiny of every hoops critic in the USA with a blog, vlog or podcast whose only mission is to whine about how he’s “not producing”. He’s in a win-win situation for sure. More power to him I say.
Dwight Howard tours Taoyuan night market, samples chicken butt on a stick
“Chicken ass? Chicken ass? Oh s**t!” Howard exploded in surprise after he was told that the chicken on a stick he sampled from a food stand was that of a butt.
“I just ate some chicken ass y’all. This is some good ass chicken,” he said, laughing it off.
That’s what he came for, being adored, feeling like 25 again. Well, it kind of shows how low the level of competition is in Taiwan compared to the NBA, where no one needed his services any longer.
