    Gerald Green = bitch.

    The double ally-oop was a top 5 all-time. The others weren't even close but the double ally-oop was ****ing amazing.

    Because Vince Carter and Jason Richardson did every dunk humanly possible without props and seeing them again is boring.

    second round was more lame than the first round! Ever since the Amare-Smoove dunk contest, there hasn't been a good one yet. This was decent at best.

    Do what Smoove did in 2005.

    They chirp Nate about his height and only reason why he got votes but they mention Dwights height 203230 times.

    Get off his balls.

    oiatlhawksfan, I haven't seen Josh Smith do anything too spectacular. Some nice dunks but nothing too great. Mostly stuff I've seen before with slight variations.

    Oh please, the 2005 dunk contest was a snooze fest. Josh Smith slammed it down hard a couple of times, and that's it. His dunks were unoriginal. Too similar to everything that has been done before.

    Dwight was both entertaining and creative, he deserves it.

    Why wasn't the last round graded on points?

    Would be interesting to see what they graded the last 2 dunks of each player.

    You've seen someone do a windmill dunk, while jumping over somebody? Can you show it to me?

    Too bad we didn't get to see what Moon had up his sleeves.

    Bad competition overall.

    They say it's the best every year, what a jip.

    Green should have done the barefoot dunk first and the birthday cake dunk last.

    D12 looks like a little kid hugging the trophy. Don't know how anyone can root against him.

    Did you watch the contest? Anything Moon could have done would have been moot. Dwight Howard put on a Vince Carter-esque performance.

    I thought this was a damn good dunk contest personally. Dwight put on a hell of a show. All of his dunks were amazing, even if he technically threw it in on the Superman. But, I have to say that he had the most creative set of dunks I've seen in a VERY long time.

    They figured letting the fans vote would make it more exciting.
