... up with an innovative approach towards the NBA Dunk contest. Rudy is asking fans to send in their best dunk to YouTube. He will pick his favorite and replicate it as one of his dunks during the contest. I think it is brilliant.

Rudy Gay is soliciting dunk ideas from fans on YouTube. You submit a video response to Gay's video (below) of you performing your proposed dunk, and if the dunk is chosen, Gay will perform your dunk in the contest and fly you to sit in the audience.
