D-Leaguer Serves Up the Best Dunk Contest Perfomance of the Weekend
by Nate Jones Saturday's Slam Dunk Contest was quite entertaining. Dwight Howard and Nate Robinson put on a great show with their Superman and Kyrpto-Nate act. However -- minus the comic book showmanship -- the dunks themselves might have been topped in another dunk contest earlier in the ...

Don't Worry... Youtube Has Us Covered!
Ridiculous Upside — ... The buzz around the internets was that the D-League dunk contest might have been better than the NBA's.  Cowboys420 on Youtube helped us out by posting a few of the better dunks from the D-League this weekend.   While only seeing James White's dunk contest dunks, I am certainly more impressed than I was when I watched Nate Robinson jump off the back.  My buddies and I did that at the YMCA in 8th grade! ...

Monday morning hangover...
Bright Side Of The Sun — ... from the fan level. I did get to meet this crew and while Tas and Skeets are ok and all, JD is the real genius and the man behind the camera/recorder/editing software. Don't let anyone tell you Canadians are dumb should be walled off from coming to America [Note by Phoenix Stan, 02/16/09 9:49 AM MST ] Best dunks of the weekend were not in the "Big House" but on the little court at the Convention Center.

D-Leaguer Shows Dwight Howard How the Free Throw Line Dunk Is Supposed to Be Done
The Sporting Blog — ... He actually took off from behind the line and flushed it with relative ease. And he’s about a half-foot shorter than Howard. I’d venture to say that’s the finest that dunk has looked since ... well, since MJ set the standard over 20 years ago. (Note: Dr. J may have done it first, but MJ did it best.) (H/T: FanHouse)

The Morning After: February 17, 2009
Sparty and Friends — ... Stoudamire rumors continue to swirl.  I will take him in Detroit, because what we got isn’t working. Rootzoo is couting down the top 200 players in NBA history. Really, Joe Dumars and Mark Jackson are only slightly better than Elden Campbell?  I think GITC needs to critique this list as it unfolds. Allen Iverson cut his hair over the weekend, apparently this is a big deal.  Hope it makes him shoot better. I think it may be time to let a D-Leaguer participate in the Slam Dunk contest. Manny and the Dodgers need to stop being ...

James White Wins NBDL Dunk Contest With True Free Throw Line Dunk, Better Than Dwight Howard Or Nate Robinson
FanIQ Blog — ... video: Let's hope James White gets his game together and makes it back into the NBA. He played in 6 games for the Spurs in the 06-07 season, and is trying to work his way back. I'm hoping he does. Next year's dunk contest between Dwight Howard, King James, Nate Robinson and James "Flight" White could be the best ever.
