Yo, how’s everybody today? We just had our first home game last night and it was the first time we were on that floor since the Finals against the Lakers last June. We beat Miami, and I blocked five shots. We blocked 16 shots as a team, and that’s good because it’s been all about defense in training camp.
Not sure if you guys have heard or not, but I’m going to be featured in ESPN The Magazine. They are calling it “The Body’’ edition where they show off athlete’s bodies.
It’s called “The Body’’ issue and some people out there are making it sound like it’s nude pictures. It’s not like we set there and took pictures of ourselves. They want to show off bodies and show how hard we work in the gym to have good bodies.
It was a fun photo shoot and I really enjoyed doing it. I’m proud of the body that I’ve got and I didn’t mind showing it off. It was a lot of fun for me.
Ya’ll will have to check it out and let me know what you think. It’s hard work building up your body to withstand the abuse that I take on the basketball court, but I really see the benefits of the size and strength that I have added through working in the weight room. Rarely does a day go by that I don’t get in a lift of some sort.
Here’s some behind the scenes video showing how the issue came together:
So grab a copy of “The Body’’ issue and let me know what you think about yo boy’s chiseled physique. You can see for yourself if I do truly look like The Man of Steel. Yuuuuuaaaaa!

I have only seen a pic of the cover. I was on a mission the other day to find this magazine and EVERY store I went to in Gainesville, FL said “Not Until 10/09/09″.
