People weren't expecting much at this year's Slam
Dunk contest. There were only four competitors: Orlando's Dwight Howard, a bonafide young star, but at 6'11" is considered too big to make dunks exciting;Toronto's Jamario Moon-who?Gerald Green, last year's *yawn* champion from Minnesota, and Memphis' Rudy Gay.
Wow. Hold me back.
When the contest started however, the four competitors took imagination, showmanship, and originality to a height never before seen, leading many to blurt out,"the slam dunk is back!" Led by the imaginative Howard, these four young men wowed the crowd withthe most entertaining dunk show ever.
Howard led off by tossing the ball off the back of the backboard, catching it in mid-air with his body behind the rim then reaching over and dunking it with his left hand!
A ringing 50 points! One of the greatest all- time dunks!
This is only part 1!
Howard and the others weren't finished, though. They took the fans in the palms of their hand and never let go, giving all of us a show we won't soon forget, keeping us in suspense and asking what will they do NEXT year?
This was part 2!
Note: do all of the guys have to bring a shorter teammate?
This was definitely the best show ever! Thanks to Rudy, Jamario, Gerald and Dwight for your creativity and showmanship!
