    After the Vince Carter and TMac contest, I don't want to see any dunk competition any more. Since you can't top that, why bother? Close the shop and move on.

    MSNBC has it reported as an 11 foot dunk. Are they mistaken?

    Yeah I know noticed that too, they probably felt like DBags for making a joke out of it after Ernie explained who he was.

    Seriously this whole thing is a joke

    Even Lebron can't save the Dunk Contest

    What the dunk contest needs is another new player to come into the league who is ultra athletic and an electric dunker (like Carter did in 2000). I thought James White was that player, but he wasn't good enough to play in the league.

    Howard didn't deserve 50s on either of the first two dunks. Rudy should've definitely gotten higher points. I do believe that a Howard vs. Robinson final is staged since Nate Robinson had a custom jersey and ball made just for the event.

    I thought it was entertaining nonetheless. I loved how Robinson took over the crowd. He's definitely a freak athlete like Howard is.

    i still think scola shouldve been on the list of players ppl could vote for. i mean a guy who averages 0.147 dunks a season, winning it all with an average two handed running dunk would truly be an underdog story.

    To me, it looked closer to being 1 foot taller than the regular rim than 2 feet. But because of the previous discussions last year of Dwight wanting to raise the rim to 12 feet and Kenny Smith screaming that the rim was at 12 feet, I think everybody just assumed that's what it was.

    Rudy's behind the back pass off the glass was freaking awesome.

    They were totally biased. But frankly what goes around comes around Rudy, thats what you get for that freakin chinese picture.

    i call a fix!

    the judges eliminate the only real competition (rudy) to give way to nates wardrobe change and the superman/kryptonite show that was completely planned by the nba.

    if it wasn't planned by the nba, then you believe howard payed to have a phone booth manufactured with the nba's logo on it.

    the whole thing was a scripted show!
