Dwight Howard's Dunk Contest Sneak Preview

Yeah, Andre Iguodala did a version of it back in 2006, but Howard's height makes it harder for him to take off from behind the glass and complete the dunk without knocking himself out

2008 Slam Dunk Contest: Dwight Howard Superman Dunk [Video]

Dwight Howard’s performance as Superman will go down as one of the most creative dunks in Slam Dunk championship history and it was sick. It locked him in as the Slam Dunk Champion.

The 2008 NBA Dunk Contest Soars
mindritesports.com 2/17/2008 — Last night we saw creativity, showmanship and theatrics to last us for many years to come. When the smoke cleared, the biggest man in the competition, Dwight “Superman” Howard, emerged victorious. The last big man to have the same explosiveness and hops as Howard used to be my personal favorite player in the league, Shawn Kemp, before drugs, alcohol and baby mommas took over his life.
Dwight Howard Is Not Human
mvn.com 2/17/2008 — If you didn’t watch the NBA Slam Dunk contest last night, you missed one of the most impressive displays of aerial ability ever seen.

Here’s a video review of the awesomeness that was All-Star Saturday night. Get your popcorn ready.

I came away from All-Star Weekend with two gripping question: What was the deeper meaning of Gerald Green's shoeless dunk, and why didn't Dwight Howard actually dunk on his Superman routine?

Watson: "I've got to ask, you didn't ...

Dwight Howard Meant to Throw the Ball Down During the Superman Dunk —

There has been all sorts of clamberings-on about whether or not Dwight Howard 's "Superman" dunk actually counted as a dunk or not. He did, after all, literally throw the ball through the hoop and never actually touch the rim. And to some, that has been a point of contention, particularly given that D-Ho was quickly awarded the dunk contest (mainly by Kenny Smith ) and proclaimed to have ...
