Dwight Howard: "I like to play Army Men with all my awards"

Stan Van Gundy sometimes plays with Dwight on weekends
In Mondays press conference Orlando Magic Center Dwight Howard was awarded his third consecutive Defensive Player Of The Year Award. Howard Announced he was grateful for the award and glad his work paid off. "I'm glad I got this... 'Cuz i like to play Army Men with all my awards," Howard said as he clanked his 2010 award against his 2011 award "I line them up and they do missions and stuff....pew pew....pew kabooooom!"
Dwight names all his trophies

Howard has an entire room devoted to trophies he has acquired over his career, with over 100 total trophies, most of which have little men in some basketball pose at the top. Howard has broken off most of the figurines and has them scattered over the floor.

"Um... My favorite one? I don't know... I like them all, actually." Howard told the press as he pulled out a bronze basketball figurine with a missing leg. "This one got his leg blowed off... But he can fly so I like him." He said ramming the figure into the badly scratched 2009 Defensive Player Of The Year award.

When asked if he wanted to add the NBA Finals Larry O'Brien Trophy to his collection, Howard muttered something in what seemed like German, tipped over the microphone with his 8th grade MVP trophy, then got up and asked if he could go potty.
