In his anticipated debut with Houston, Howard scored 17 points on 8-of-14 shooting and pulled down a career high-tying 26 rebounds Wednesday in a 96-83 win over Charlotte.
"I didn't want to put any pressure on myself," Howard told ESPN. "I just wanted to go out there and play and have fun and get back to being who I am as a player. I think when you focus too much on that and what everybody else is saying that's when you don't play like you want to play."
Some wondered what would happened if Omar Asik would be traded or come off the bench. Even though he asked for a trade, they kept him and started him in the season-opener. He finished with 14 rebounds.
"With our big lineup, we have so much size and we're going to be such a good rebounding team," small forward Chandler Parsons told the team's official website. "Like I've said all along, when you have Dwight and Omer up there that gives wings the confidence to be aggressive and be more active while getting in passing lanes."
