Howard will be interviewed tonight on TNT (7:00PM ET) as the NBA All-Star teams are announced live. He is expected to be announced as a starter for the Eastern Conference squad for the first time in his career. Earlier this week, it was announced that Howard would compete in the Slam Dunk Contest for the second straight year.

Wow! That's awesome! Dwight gettin some pre all-star love. Maybe it will give Dwight some extra votes for the dunk contest and the all-star game.

I read the title and got worried that TNT was an euphemism for HGH.

You know, after watching him on TNT just now, it really is easy to forget how young Dwight is. He dominates on the floor like a monster, but in reality, he really is still a shy young kid. You could tell that he was nervous being on national TV for the interview.

Great interview.

He was sick by the way he was talking.

Also something to add Charles Barkley has Hedo Turkoglu in all-star game and EJ said that's a good call.

nah not really just stuff youd expect...you forget most people never see him or hear from him because he's never on nat tv, so they just asked general stuff.

He said Jameer is a better point guard and that Ra$hard is overpaid.

I think Dwight gave much better interviews when he was 19 than he does now. He was spontaneous then. Now he seems to be trying so hard to be dignified that he comes out boring.

There's a poll about all-star reserves on the Sentinel site. You can vote for who you think should be reserves. You could show Hedo or Rashard a little love.

Dwight must be very talented, being able to post on game threads while the game is going on. He is not human lol.
