    The between the legs dunk was done almost every year (some years multiple times) since Carter did it.

    It's the new stuff that people want to see, not the same old, same. Even if Green had perfected the between the legs dunk, it still wouldn't/didn't matter.

    Howard put on a show that everyone liked. Simple as that.

    1. 78% of the world disagrees with you.
    2. The other 22% laughs at you.
    3. Your remarks about Vince Carter at the end... no comment.

    Gerald should fear the birthday cake, seeing how he won't be able to afford one in three years.

    When Iggy lost to Nate, this forum didn't even exist (not to my knowledge at least), so that's a moot point. You just seriously need to grow up and stop making an ass of yourself.

    Man, you're acting like he was robbed of the MVP. Honestly, do you have some personal relationship with Gerald that we're not aware of? Hell, are YOU Gerald Green? Seriously dude, you're making yourself look like a fool. I've never seen someone makes such a big deal out of something so small. It was the SLAM DUNK CONTEST. And his between the legs doesn't even touch what VC did, and it'd help your image across the board if you were to never compare those two again. Hell, it'd help you if acted like a mature fan and admit your boy lost. Instead, all you're doing is bitching and moaning and bitching and moaning and making yourself look like a clown. You're acting like a flat out pathetic fanboy.

    When Iggy lost to Nate there were like 50 million threads because he got robbed same thing with Green. I want justice.

    Gerald is still the best dunker in the league!!!!!!!

    Big difference. You could've made a legitimate argument that Iggy was robbed since Nate was allowed fifty attempts on his last dunk and still won. Gerald Green lost, plain and simple. None of his dunks was as good as you hyped him out to be. Gerald Green sucks. He couldn't even get playing time on a horrible Celtics team, and he can't even get any playing time on a horrible Timberwolves team. He can't even win the dunk contest. Maybe he should just try out for And 1 or something.

    I actually think you should go back a couple more years and give Kobe some props. It's basically been done every year since he won the '98 contest with it.

    On top of all of that, it wasn't even a birthday cake. It was only a cupcake, maybe Kwame had something to do with it?

    Justice for what? Dwight outdid Green, plain and simple. You claim that Green is a great player, yet he can't even get consistent minutes in Minny. Then you say he's the best dunker, and for some odd reason, nothing that he did in the dunk contest was at all impressive.

    And one other thing you must realize here H54L. The judges didn't "screw" your boy Gerald. No no. In fact, America voted 78% to 22% that Dwight had the better night.

    1. You guys were blind to much to see Gerald's amazing performance. TNT pretty much over-hyped Dwight Howard all night and were praising him to win saying it's over after two dunks. When it was Green's turn the announcers keep saying how bad he was.

    2. Remember when Jamario Moon was attempting his second dunk and he accidentally thought the ball in the hoop. That's a dunk isn't it.

    3. Gerald Green is the best dunker in the history of the NBA.

    Such a troll. We have the worst sports discussion board on the net huh?

    I just dare you to post on another NBA forum/site and see how many people actually dont think you're wrong on this matter. Then come back here after a while and show us the posts from the other site that were in response to your statements.

    You know, I'm really wondering if you're serious now. Best dunker in NBA history? Let me throw out a few names here for you....

    Michael Jordan
    Dominique Wilkins
    Vince Carter
    Jason Richardson
    Julius Erving
    Andre Iguodala
    Nate Robinson
    Spud Webb

    And I probably could have gone on even longer. The fact of the matter is that Green lost. The contest wasn't even close. And it's not because we're "blind to Green's greatness". No, as a matter of fact it's because Dwight Howard kicked his ass. He was more creative, his dunks were better, and he was just better. Plain and simple. The only blind one here is you. You're blinded by your love of Gerald Green. Maybe if you could get off his sack for one minute you'd be able to see that he got the piss pounded out of him last night.
