It was good, but not even close to being that high on my list.
the hell?
Holy fuckin' shit! Dwight's the fuckin man.
Dwight just wrapped it up anyway.
Holy SHIT.
put dwight howard at the top of my list of favorite players. its not that i didnt know how good he is, but damn! i wish all superstars were like him.
What the fuck was that?
That was dumb, Gerald. You just lost.
i think green is rattled.
Big fucking deal, he did it in his socks.
Why is he wearing green socks when he's a T-Wolve? Does he wish he was still a Celtic?
oh boy.
If he pulls this off...
A dunk is when someone's hand is above the rim and they throw it down.
Y'all think the hand has to touch the rim? WTF?
wtf?
super dwight saved the dunk contest.
i hope dwight comes back every year for this.
Game over.
Done.
lets go home.
Holy shit.
Ok, Dwight's performance was great and one of the most creative, if not the most creative, ever. BUT every year Magic and Kenny talk about the dunk contest being "back".
saved worst for last, but dwight was awesome tonight. nice that an nba superstar came to the contest, obviously put some thought into it, and made it awesome to watch. bust sdc since vince carter, easilly.
superman and birthday cake are historical. too bad moon didnt deliver.
I wonder who Malone (aka me) picks.
i agree with the doctor. who dunks barefoot?
Yeah, if Moon did that shit... too bad he didn't.
Jesus Christ, STFU Doc.
gerald's mistake was doing the exact same dunk twice.
dwight made it easy, though.
"I don't think you can compare the two, but they're both the same."
Genius.
I thought it was hilarious when Cheryl made snoring sounds while Erving was talking. Jesus fucking Christ.
Crowd was lame as hell. I wish they were into it more, but that's going to happen I guess when you only have 1 "big" name and three relatively unknown players.
Yep.
You need to chill on the crowd, they had a hurricane and shit.
glad he didnt do that one, what if he f'd up?
lol. Not at the "they had a hurricane and shit" part.Quote:

when your hand is 2 feet from the rim when you 'throw it down' it's not a dunk. not even close.
i think people (see: TNT commentators especially!) are just caught up in the moment and don't want to objectively analyse the attempted dunk.
he ended up short of the rim so in my books that wasn't even a dunk. the 2nd one he did was all style and little substance. so he took the ball off the little basket and did a fairly normal dunk. big deal.
IMO he had a good night but by far his best dunks was his first one off the back of the backboard and then the one i liked most was the tip off the backboard and dunk. that was wicked.
Its also called Throwing it down. gotcha on the actual name of the contest but slaming or throwing it down the same thing.
No, you are slamming the ball through the net, r-tard.
Fuck the rules, that was too amazing to not be a dunk. Superman would never touch the rim. Great re-enactment imo.Quote:
