    Agreed on him being the best dunker but I don't think there's any way he can trump the infatuation everybody has with Dwight Howard. Dwight's Superman "dunk" last year wasn't even a real dunk yet they've dressed that up like it was one of the most iconic dunks ever. I expect whatever he does this year to get the same treatment unless Nate Robinson comes up with something creative that emphasizes his height enough and wins some "feel good" votes.

    I know he's a very capable dunker but how'd JR Smith all of a sudden get in the considerations? I guess going with the 2nd place finisher in the vote-in was almost like going with the 8th best dunker
