This year’s dunk contest was just as exciting as last years – if not more. Dwight Howard actually had some competition with former dunk champion Nate Robinson. Both of these two guys had amazing tricks up their sleeves – dunking on a 12 foot rim, double-pump reverse jam, and leaping over the big 7 footer. Both of these guys deserved to win the title for a second time, but KryptoNate hauled in 52% of the total votes, just barely enough to walk-it-out with the ‘W’.

It’s nice to see the dunk contest being brought back to life again, unlike a couple years back, after the Vince Carter/Jason Richardson era. Thanks to Superman Dwight, we can start looking forward to the coming dunk contests and what’s in store for us viewers.
