Howard stopped pretending and admitted that he could easily defeat Perkins, but he really couldn t defeat Yao Ming.

Recently, Howard, known as Warcraft, talked about interesting things about playing against Perkins and Yao Ming in a podcast. Howard almost admitted for the first time that Yao Ming is indeed unstoppable and it is a huge challenge for him.

Howard was called a monster because of his strong physical fitness and athletic ability. At his peak, he defeated the Green Army's Big Three and James in the playoffs, and even competed with Kobe Bryant in the finals. At that time, there was news in the league that Howard could be replaced by James alone. This shows how powerful Howard is at his peak. But Howard, who was so powerful, had no way to deal with Yao Ming, and was even crushed on both offense and defense.

Yao Ming and Howard are like the extremes of two centers. Howard has physical fitness and athletic ability, but his shooting touch and free throw ability are very poor. Yao Ming has maximized his technical ability, has a rich arsenal of weapons, and coupled with his powerful body, he has achieved twice the result with half the effort. And their peak periods basically coincided. During this period, Yao Ming could be said to have eaten, slept and played World of Warcraft, beating Howard until he lost his temper.

Howard also admitted in his blog that he and Perkins often faced each other in high school. Although he was sometimes irritated by trash talk, it was still very easy to deal with Perkins. But Yao Ming is a very big challenge because Yao Ming is too tall and has an accurate shooting hand. Howard is afraid of this kind of center who has technical ability and physical strength. Moreover, Howard is very athletic and does not have an advantage in size. This is why he is always crushed by Yao Ming.

Yao Ming is not afraid of players like Howard who rely on his body to play. What he is really afraid of is a center with skills and speed like Boozer.
