They said it was just a minor injury on ESPN.......I dont know any details, but it's probably just minor back spasms or something.

Turkaflu 2008-2009? lol, im sure he's fine...I was under the impression that the big guns were sitting this game out anyway...

on a side note, interesting stats from the boxscore...neither team had a single steal, block or turn over...and there were only 53 rebounds pulled down between both clubs...are these #'s right? not even Dwight had a turnover?

i guess chinese guys care about only points and rebounds.

Dwight had 15 points, not 14. I think whoever tallied up the scores just sucked a paying attention.

Beyond the hot shooting, the eye catching stat is the assists from the American team. 29 total, an loads of guys with 3 or more. Kobe had 7.

Howard had more steals than blocks??? Still that 2 plus 1 is three forced TOs.

FInal thought, LBJs games seems VERY well suited for international ball.

Agreed. His game is suited well for international ball. Then again, isn't his game suited very well for any type of basketball? lol
