Josh Howard is the Mavericks' second scorer. Such a score is not too difficult for him, so he is firmly in control.
Barkley said: "Josh Howard is just an excellent role player, judging by data alone, because there are too many people in the league who average 15+ per game. If you watch the Mavericks' game, you can understand his importance in the Mavericks' offensive system, and he is no less than Dirk."
Smith also said: "Although Howard used shooting this round, his low-post strong play is the characteristic. In the game, he often used his strong body and extraordinary arms to force the defenders at low-posts again and again. Ordinary small forwards could not defend him, and it was also difficult to defend with a slightly shorter PF. If he was really used to defend him with misalignment, he could create excellent opportunities for his teammates."
Barkley said: "But compared to offense, Howard relies on his reputation as his defense. He is the most important part of the Mavericks' defensive system. Josh Howard has an amazing wingspan and speed, and he does not suffer any loss when facing the league's top swingers. Therefore, he always bears the heavy responsibility of defending the opponent's top forward guards. When defending the opponent's inside players dislocated, he can also interfere with the opponent with speed wingspan and bounce. He has a strong sense of defense. He is the most common player on the camera when changing positions."
Barkley likes Josh Howard very much, and he continued: "What is even more surprising is Josh Howard's rebounding ability. In the Mavericks, Josh Howard can always maintain a 7+ rebound count per game. A considerable number of them are the Mavericks' scarce frontcourt rebounds. It is precisely because of him and Dirk's control of the rebounds that the Mavericks can comfortably defeat the opponent with offense. His existence has connected the internal and external defensive systems of the Mavericks. His defensive style has brought unprecedented tenacity to the Mavericks."
Smith said: "Tonight he and House are the main defense of Zhou Hang. It can be seen that Avery Johnson attaches great importance to Zhou Hang."
On the field, Zhou Hang also felt some pressure.
The Mavericks' defense is definitely not bad at this stage.

"Zhou Hang is awesome!!"
"Zhou Hang's three-pointer is here again, haha!!"
"The three-point distance of Zhou is very long."
