    The Magic told anyone who would listen that Howard has some Emeka Okafor in his game. He blocked five shots in a scrimmage and soared freakishly to reject a high-arcing shot by Keith Bogans.

    "I can do those things, but the media made it one-sided, talking only about my offense in high school," Howard said. "It's going pretty good. I think the Magic got the right person for the job. I can't wait to be put in the fire sooner or later."

    Full Story


    He will probably dominate the summer league games.

    Yea, true. D.Howard has the potential to dominate on both ends of the floor. I'm liking this pick day by day.

    It looks like Gooden will be gone, which would mean that he would start at PF. 1st practice with other NBA players and he impresses, give the man a break. He's gonna be awesome. Let's see his stats in the summer league games.

    I'm beginning to think Enitials just comes in here to stir trouble. I bet he's not even a Magic. fan. Don't get enough attention at home?

    Let is go. Okafor is not playing here.LMAO. GO root for another team.

    Back to more important things:

    I bet Howard becomes a dominat player on both ends of the floor. This guy is such a great athlete I can see him being more of a TD than a KG.

    Can't wait till training camp starts. I bet he dominates the Summer League.(At least he better.)

    This is really good everybody said pick Okafor he is a better defensive player,but it doesnt look like thats not true for Dwight.Even though he could be a lot stronger,I tihnk he will be a force in the on the defensive end when the season comes.

    Dwight Howard looks like a less-pissed off version of Steven Hunter. I hope he doesn't play like one.

    There's 2 differences between Steven Hunter and Dwight Howard.

    1. Skill level-Dwight is way better than Hunter
    2. Dwight doesn't have ADD(like the Magic owners think Steven Hunter has)

    Steven Hunter has ADD? Thatwould explain why he is not effective in the paint.
