Dwight Howard Shows He Has No Killer Instinct

Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic are in big trouble. In a crushing loss to Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls on Friday, ending a four-game winning streak, Howard proved that he cannot be the guy that will lead Orlando to a championship.
Down six points with nine minutes left in the game, Glen "Big Baby" Davis fell out of bounds on a hard blocking foul by Joakim Noah. While Davis was resting on the ground, Howard came over and jokingly rubbed his hands together and "shocked" Davis until he was revived.
According to the numbers, Howard is right on track to be selected to the All-Star game. The 6'11" center is said to be the most dominant center since Shaq, and he would be a great piece to any championship team. But that's all he is, a piece.
Every year for the past seven years, Magic fans have waited for the Magic front office to put the right pieces around Howard. After unsuccessful experiments with players like Rashard Lewis, Gilbert Arenas and Hedo Turkoglu, the Magic's future looks unstable. Simply, Howard does not have the ability to lead this team out of the East alone.
At home, defending your home court, down six in the fourth, you don't spend time putting on skits. You don't smile and make jokes. Well, that won't get you a ring anyway.
