As a Taiwanese kid that grew up in LA in since the 90s, you know Kobe is my guy. So yeah, I clowned Dwight when Kobe did. Then Dwight had his Redemption Tour. Then he doesn’t squabble with Shaq when he has all the ammo. Then he was eager AF to jump back on our squad only to have the FO screw him (15 min really..). Then he goes and plays in Taiwan. Then he embraces my people and defends our sovereignty. Man…thanks for everything D12. You’re the man.

Would y’all rather have Dwight or Tristan on the bench for: short minutes, mentoring, vibes

Really one of the most misunderstood guys in the NBA game
He’s a big 6’10 massive dude who is really just a playful funny guy at heart. I never seen him beef with someone who didn’t start it with him first

Dwight really seemed to enjoy his time there. Maybe the Taoyuan Leopards gotta run it back with the Taiwanese goat 🐐

I’m not looking forward to what Shaq says about this. Dwight’s a passionate guy, let him be.

His redemption tour with the lakers was a great thing for both sides. Completely ridiculous that he was left off the top 75.

It looked like he was having the time of his life there

He brought hype to the Taiwanese pro hoops that they’ve never had. Lots of international exposure and the Taiwanese fans loves him to death. Glad Dwight got what he wanted there.

I’m touched by how much his time in Taiwan meant to him. It must feel good to be loved by the entirety of that country’s basketball scene.
