    Man if NBA TV was smart. They'd play these forein game on tv. Also guys, why is everyone saying olympics? lol Thats not untill 2008.
    But anyways no new story here with Arroyo. He dominates all the time with Puerto Rico. IMO that's how he really got his name more well known when he spanked us (the U.s Team last olympics) It's just to bad where up the ying yang in PGs

    I would really like to Dwight get more minutes. 4 pts and 4 rebs in 10 mins isn't bad but I'm sure with more minutes he would really fill up the stat sheet.

    id rather see him stay healthy and just contribute to a stacked team. these games dont really mean anything, when the olympics start... then id love to see dwight go into buck nutty mode.

    how about chris paul having a perfect shooting night?

    In their first WOBC games, here's how the Magic trio faired.

    Arroyo put up 23 points 5 assists, 4 turnovers in 26 minutes. He shot 8-16 including 7-7 from the line against the United States

    Dwight put up 10 points 7 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 TO in 18 minutes on 3-3 shooting and 4-5 from the line against Puerto Rico.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Sergio:</div><div class="quote_post">31minutes
    2/11 FG (18.2%)

    1/7 for 2pts (14.3%)
    1/4 for 3pts (25%)
    5 rebounds
    3 asists
    2 TO
    1 steal
    2 blocks
    and 5 points</div>

    There's Darko's numbers against Nigeria.

    Dwight and Arroyo did great. Let's just pretend Darko didn't play today.

    Darko put up 14 points, 9 rebounds, 3 blocked shots in 36 mins, while shooting 6-13 from 2 and 2-4 from the line in a loss to France.

    Dwight put up 16 points and 10 rebounds with 2 assists, 1 steal, 1 block and 0 turnovers in 22 mins in a rout of China.

    Arroyo had 29 points 6 rebounds 2 assists, 2 turnovers in 35 mins while shooting 8/15 from the floor including 3-6 from 3 point land and 10-11 from the line.

    Dwight is looking absolutely beastly right now. The thing that plagued him the most was turnovers last season and he has had a combined 1 turnovers with 2 assists. He also continues to be a defensive presence. Arroyo is leading the entire tournament in scoring and Darko continues to be a defensive threat and his offense is starting to come around a little.

    Dwight is tearing it up on the boards. Im watching the China game and they cant contain him. Dwight is working very hard on the boards, thats what we want to see going into this season. He is going to be a beast. Im pretty sure the rebounding title should be his for the taking.

    Dwight Howard will be deadly if he can hit free throws like that.
