I am not looking forward to that next year.</div> Sorry Greg, but Dwight's gonna teabag you. <font color=""Blue"">Replaced forum link with link straight to the article. -Swish</font>
I just got this magazine. There was a cool question and answers article with Durant and Oden. Oh and Clos, you might want to delete that link before you get into trouble. That is considered spamming.

Apparently Dwight Howard is Oden's favorite player. And, I can actually see the similarity in the two.
How can he be his favorite player when he's just been in the league for a few years? Is that how long Oden's been following the game? Seriously, I thought it was pretty crazy when Gasol said he grew up watching Garnett, but Dwight Howard's practically a rookie in the grand scheme of things. You'd think that he'd maybe say Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson, Mutumbo, Mourning, or Shaq, but nope, it's Dwight Howard.
That's pretty cool, people are already looking up to Dwight. Dwight's favorite player is Kevin Garnett too. They had a lot in common both coming from high school.

The fact that he follows, "Dwight Howard either" with "He's like my idol" makes me think it's Dwight he is talking about. Or Greg just has ADD...

And oh snappp this is my 100th post.
Yeah Shaq does seem like more of an idol since Dwight's only been in the league for a couple years. I'm guessing Voodoo Child changed the post because Nick Mockford is Sir Desmond's real name. It's sort of an inside joke. And congrats on post #100! Keep it up and stay active, you're a good poster.
