    LOL...no it is not a dunk. Otherwise I could jump straight up at the free throw line and if my hands were above the rim, shoot the shot downward into the rim and it would be a dunk.

    It is one thing if the guy was able to dunk but instead chose to threw the ball down but he was obviously several feet short of being able to even touch the rim. It ain't a dunk.

    That said, sometimes you have to bend the rules to make room for the spectacular. What Dwight did was spectacular.

    You are wrong! Yao was playing great, specially in the defense end. :)

    If they don't pick it up, I don't think I'll make to 4th quarter.

    Dwight's running jumper with the superman cape was funny but it wasn't spectacular. I thought the birthday cake dunk was funnier. Dwight's behind the back board dunk was better.

    On NBA.com they have a link to TNT Overdrive, it's live coverage, 4 cameras. It doesn't have the live TNT broadcast commentary.

    All your points are just based on one play?! :eek:

    I think Yao was not serious at the beginning because this is an ASG. After Howard played hard on him, he played seriously and very well.

    Don't be that serious. This is all star game. Who cares?

    But Yao doesn't fit this kind of game, that is a truth.

    Has Dwight Howard played the entire first half?

    Looks like the NBA is trying to promote him into a superstar with this game.

    Loved those alley-oop between Lebron and Dwight...that's what the all-star game is meant to be like.

    Where is Yao ffs. This is a joke. He was voted in because people want to see him play in this game. Get him back in the game now.

    This is not a bad thing! Yao can save himself for the Cavs game.
