    Although disappointed at last year's event, Magic C Dwight Howard says he'd like to compete in the slam-dunk competition during all-star weekend in February in New Orleans. And if he's invited, he'll take a different tack -- naming his dunks a la Darryl Dawkins.</p>

    Howard was upset after last season's slam-dunk competition in Las Vegas, feeling the judges didn't reward him for his creative "sticker dunk." Howard leaped high and slapped a sticker of his face on the backboard with his left hand while completing the dunk with his right.</p>

    "Dwight's been working on some crazy dunks," Aaron Goodwin said. "We'll have different names of the dunks and try to tell the judges what's coming so the same thing doesn't happen." -- <font color="#000000">Orlando Sentinel</font></p>
