Superdunk

For those of you who did not get a chance to see the the NBA Slam Dunk competition, as an overall competition it was really nothing... not because it lacked great dunks.. but because they all came from the same contestant...

They weren;t all bad, Demario Moon's first dunk would have killed in the 90's and 80s for sure, Rudy Gays would have been great had Howard not already upped it with his first one...

Dwight Howard killed, and while Gerald Green had one great dunk (blowing out the candle) Howard had 3 and 1 ok one. Not going to go into description, just watch here:

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3

I think my favorite thing about the superman dunk is that it was Superman-esque in that he really didn't dunk, he like threw the ball down through the hoop... Green's cupcake was great but he didn't have anything left... what would have been awesome as my wife thought up would have been if instead of doing his final dunk in socks... he should have untied the shoes made them loose and put velcro on the bottom of them then put down a strip of velcro tape on the floor and literally jumped out of his shoes...
