I'm looking forward to the contest, tonight. Dwight Howard can flat out get up, and i'm sure he'll come out pissed off after last year. Jamarrio Moon can straight up fly. It doesn't hurt that he used to play for the Globetrotters and if you've watched his promo video, he can dunk from a few feet past the free throw line. Gerald Green won it last year, but i wasn't very impressed with him. I think he'll finish in last place this year. Rudy Gay has amazing ups and if you've watched any of the ideas sent in to him, he should put on a show. I also recomend watching the Youtube video titled WARNING DO NOT CLICK EXTREMELY WICKED DUNKS. Some of that stuff is unbelievable.

Haven't been at all interested in the dunk contest since MJ, Dominique, and Spud Webb were in it.

They still have a slam dunk competition? I thought they cancelled that when MJ retired.

I think they should get rid of the Dunk contest and replace it with the "NBA Defense Contest." Make the players try to play defense. I'd be exciting for the NBA fans, because it's something they've never seen before, and you'd probably still have a share of monster dunks.
On a side note, looking at the SI homepage, I think Dirk needs a laxative... | | |

I very much recommend turning on the contest as gerald green just blew out a candle while dunking the ball. That my friends is creativity and the contest could be back this year.

I saw figure-8 school bus racing on ESPN2 once. Don't know if we'd be able to get an actual Vegas line on it though |  This is the sarcasm pirate. If you see him anywhere in my post, it means I was being sarcastic. Thank you.

Howard didn't dunk it. He threw it through the rim
