WOW! Awesome dunk contest. I didn't know both GG and James White were playing in Russia. They had some white guys that could dunk too!
But he missed the dunk bro. Or did he make it on another attempt? Cause if he did, that would have ben truly mind blowing. Since we are talking dunks only, overall all round game shouldnt be debated when comparing players. But I wish this James White guy had some other skills, he would be damn fun to watch regularly in the NBA.
If you guys want to watch some really good dunks, check out some of the stuff Kadour Ziani does. I've posted his vids before. He's a 5'9" dunking monster from France/Algeria. He jumped over a car - no, not the Blake Griffin advertisement for a brand kind of dunk - a real dunk. If you wedge a basketball between the rim and backboard, he can kick it off. For some good acrobatic dunks, check out some of the stuff that SlamNation and And1 do.
You know I'm a huge fan of these pro dunkers on youtube and I've seen almost all of the videos. The one criticism though is how inconsistent they are with their dunks, I remember hearing about TFB doing a half time show at a Bulls game and they missed tons of dunks and really got the crowd out of it.

Why James White wasn't allowed to participate in at least one NBA dunk contest is one of mankind's greatest mysteries.
Damn. You're right. That guy is pretty sick. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JWdNawGXizg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Damn that was awesome. I cant believ he is only 5'9. Thanks for the 2 vids man. Id rep you if i could.
Derozan slam dunks the (prop) dunk contest (sorry, terrible pun I know) http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=6147372 And I can see his point, all the glitz and PR and build up and props and everything else detracts from the actual dunk. I mean it was a decent contest, but get rid of all the cr@p and just give us an actual DUNK contest
I remember seeing this video a while back.. (also how annoying eye of the tiger is) 1:26, best dunk of the video. 4:43, how to really jump "over" a car and dunk.
