He did sell the dunk, though. Going into the phone booth and coming out with a superman cape. The fans love it. He's not losing this one.

Lebron in the dunk contest next year? That should be interesting.

Nice dunk by Nate.

Dwight should have kept with the decision to not do it this year. No way he could top what he did last year, and this year's was too over hyped.

Become Legendary.

that dunk that howard did off the side of the backboard was amazing...

nate robinson winning this thing was a joke.  is this a "dunk" contest or a "prop / presentation" contest anymore?

thankfully, i grew up in an era when the dunk contest was really a dunk contest.  but this year's was awful...

Most disappointing weekend in years. You guys think this year's competition was over hyped.. wait until next year when Lebron is in it.

Lebron can make a layup and all the fans will vote for him to be the champion.
