The fact that Dwight Howard feels the need to explain himself to Warriors reporter Diamond Leung says a lot about Dwight’s sensitive nature.
We know 99 out of 100 times, Curry is not going to be able to get a rebound over Dwight Howard, but the fact that he did is going to be talked about. Nothing Dwight is going to do or say is going to change that.
He can roll his eyes and cop pleas, it doesn’t matter, Curry boxed you out and got a board. Your team lost by 35 at home in a game they had to win, those are facts just deal with it.
Dwight Howard came up to me minutes after rolling eyes @ my Curry question: "He got 1 rebound. 1 rebound, brotha. U can even get 1 rebound."

Dwight: "I didnt even see Curry. My man was out on the perimeter so I just thought nobody was there. When I turned around Curry's up in me."

Dwight Howard: "He got a rebound." Shakes head, eye roll. "It's basketball, brotha."

Don’t be salty at a reporter doing their job, be mad at your team not them.
