What we didn't know is that Howard does a mean impression of his Orlando Magic coach, Stan Van Gundy.
"You taught me what it means to stay ready."

Howard has long been a lock to make the Hall of Fame. He was the best defender of his generation, a three-time Defensive Player of the Year, an eight-time All-NBA player, and an eight-time All-Star who won an NBA ring in the bubble with the Lakers and averaged 15.7 points and 11.8 rebounds a game.
