Again, its basically just a windmill but he bent his knees so he could get over K-Mart who was sitting in a chair.
Gerald Green = robbed, who the **** can go between the legs barefoot!!!!!!!!! The cupcake dunk, top 3 all-time. The real SDC, Gerald Green Dwight = 3 dunks

Dwight Howard put on a Vince Carter-esque performance. </div> Yeah, I did, and I saw Dwight throw the basketball into the hoop (NOT A DUNK). It was a joke. It was creative, but honestly, I'd rather see more of basketball than that of a circus. You can't even compare Dwight to VC, some of his dunks were not original, but he did them so well. Plus he ACTUALLY dunked.

Dwight went and tried something new, and next year dunkers will possibly take that and go further.
So it was Josh Smith the guy who put on the old school Hawks jersey. I thought it was Nate Robinson when I was trying to think back earlier tonight. Just shows you how "memorable" that one was. Dwigth's double oop was great, and the Superman was great for the theatrics.
In all honesty her people, did it even matter if Dwight has to redo the superman dunk? He won it hands down in the 2nd round anyways. I realize what Gerald was trying to do by going barefoot, but he should have chosen another dunk. Plus, the between the legs dunk is officially overused as it is, even if he did do it shoeless. The fact here is that Dwight was creative with his dunks. Bouncing it off the ground and then bouncing it off the backboard was incredible. His first dunk was also the best of the first round. Did he even see the rim? Plus his final dunk was amazing as well. He was by far the most creative this year and definitely deserved it.
