Hmm Orlando picked Dwight Howard 1st overall. Very interesting.

amazing how so many unproven highschoolers get picked so high, resulting in so many college standouts who get picked late in first round or even second round... like jameer nelson, rickey paulding, blake stepp, chris duhon...

oh well... at least okafor gets the chance to be the star player for an NBA team. in orlando, it would be steve francis getting the spotlight, and kelvin cato would probably start (assuming that t-mac goes to houston)

funny story... a friend of mine actually went to high school with okafor in houston! emeka is known to be the biggest geek too! my friend is asian, and even he could school him in ball (well during middle school when emeka sucked)

but then emeka got really tall, then of course started to improve. what's written in Sports Illustrated is true... emeka actually did bring his textbooks to bball tourneys to study... studying on the bench during gametime! haha

he also used to play starcraft (his tribe's name was his screenname!) but of course... he got abused in starcraft!

ok thats my enuf of my claim to fame... my friend was a friend of emeka okafor! woohoo! haha that makes me cool right? :p
