Basically if Howard could keep from getting stripped in the box, he would already be dominant. Those 3-4 TOs per game are probably 4 ppg not in the score sheet.
But, if the Magic trade Turkoglu for a typical PF or for a quality SG, I expect Howard's stats to dip. But his points per shot and EFF to go up.
If 30 ppg is a powerhouse scorer, then Howard may never get that.
How much longer b4 Dwight becomes the offensive powerhouse..

I think we'll see more in his offense as early as next year.
From what I can make out him and Pat have been working on some moves and shots and he possess them already - just doesnt want to use them "untested". With important games and stretches then the playoff's he probably didnt have a real chance to get them in properly. We could see as early as next season w/ another offeseason/preseason to work on them, gain a bit of confidence.
Talking about things like the hook over the right shoulder, a face up "short" jumper and variations between. Should see him being able to score in a varity of different ways near the ring - and maybe edge a bit further out as the seasons start to tumble.
