Seems like Dwight Howard needs to have his computer taken away from him. The 3x Defensive Player of the Year is using his photo editing skills for all the wrong reasons. While the fans love Howard and look forward to his NBA comeback, many of them aren’t impressed with his latest social media antics. As soon as a team gets eliminated from the playoffs, the 8x NBA All-Star is quick to post a photoshopped image of him with the team’s jersey. He did it again. The recent victims are the 76ers and Bucks.

With a crying emoji as a caption, Howard shared two photoshopped images of him in the 76ers and Bucks jerseys. Both photos read, “When you want to save the day but it’s too late.” He might have hinted that the teams may not have lost if they had him on the roster. While the Philadelphia 76ers lost to the New York Knicks, the Milwaukee Bucks lost against the Indiana Pacers.

As good as Howard’s photoshopping skills are, the images are equally bizarre. Netizens and fans have had enough of Howard’s unique plans to troll the losing teams every time with a new photoshopped image.

Fans’ frustration is understandable, considering Howard’s consistent trolling after eliminations. His hilarious antics are like rubbing salt in the wounds of fans and players who are already dejected by the loss. For Howard’s former team Los Angeles Lakers, the trolling began right after Game 1.

Dwight Howard trolled the Los Angeles Lakers with a Superman photo

Howard was instrumental in the Lakers’ 2020 championship run in the Bubble. Many still believe that the key to breaking the Denver Nuggets’ beast, Nikola Jokic‘s prowess, is Howard. While Jokic wasn’t at his MVP level during that time, Howard successfully managed to get under his skin. However, now it’s hard to tell if Howard has any answers on how to counter the major threat Jokic poses.

But that did not stop him from trolling his former team. Right after the Lakers’ defeat in Game 1, Howard shared a photoshopped image of him with a Superman cape in a Los Angeles Lakers jersey. He shared the photo on his X handle without any caption. However, later he hyped up LeBron James after watching the Lakers’ Game 4 win.

While the Lakers managed to avoid a sweep, they were swiftly eliminated after Jamal Murray’s 2nd Game-winner of the series. And it seems Howard will continue to troll all the teams until he gets to make a comeback.
