I’m with irish, that was the most ridiculous dunk I’ve ever seen. Howard pretty much did a dunk you see during those trampoline dunking shows during halftime but without the trampoline.

Loved the Birthday Cake but if you were watching live the Superman had to been a more incredible dunk.

yeah do the post after i leave work tbl. haters on here saying the superman wasnt a dunk. Who else can get that high and thrown it down like that? His two other dunks were better than anyone else that tried to dunk. bounce off the back of the backboard, cmon that was the best dunk in a long time

brush the haters off

All this debating stuff is silly. This was the most entertaining dunk contest since the Vince Carter one in 2000 (I think McGrady was in that one too). Just enjoy it and stop saying people “got robbed” and so forth. It’s a dunk contest. Howard put on the best show, no doubt, and that’s what it’s about.

That being said, I loved the Birthday Cake dunk and I thought it was a definite perfect score. One of my all time favorites. Very creative. I also loved Kenny and Charles doing the commentary. They made it that much more fun. What, do you want Billy Packer and Jim Nantz doing the commentary so we can fall asleep?

This whole “that wasn’t a dunk” debate is silly. The fact that he threw it in and still made it, makes it that more impressive. It’s like Barkley’s “he’s on the line” b.s. that took points away from Rip (not Barkley, the toe on the line). It’s the damn all-star break, not the SAT.

The candle was the most impressive, simply because the cupcake didn’t fall off. The best was Howard’s first dunk, the most entertaining was the Superman one.

@spartanfan, couldn’t have said it better myself. Morgan is starting to look like Chris Hill his senior year, no confidence in his shot. Looks like we are gonna have to wait to get Roe there next season to have any low post production. However, Kalin Lucas will be a stud.

@sparty
Man, I tell you what. Every big man on this team is soft. I mean shit, Paul Davis was soft, and he looks like the Incredible Hulk compared to Suton and Naymick. This is about the most dissapointing team Izzo’s had, when you factor in pre-season expectations. And Morgan? Sheesh, he was a monster at the beginning of the year, and now he acts like he’s scared to even shoot. Damn it.

Gerald Green’s friends/relatives/fan-boys are constantly calling Houston sports radio asking why the Rockets don’t trade for him. Not quite like the Vince Young people, but still noticable.

This is the first time I’ve listened to the broadcast; only caught the highlights. Kenny Smith…wow, dude. Calm down. That is excessive. Overbearing.

Great Stephen A. Smith impression though.
