I think it would be more entertaining if he jumped right through the poster.

Am i the only who thinks Moon could do those dunks with a blindfold on? What is with the man-love for a 6'11 dude who can jump?

I love Dwight's creativity. But if someone else did those same dunks, they would probably look better.

some of them are sick dunks, he is just tall and makes it look to easy, i think that might hurt him again..it looks better when a little guy does it..but how many big men about 7'feet can do that stuff...should be a good competition though, wish the nba would of let dwight raise the rim to 12 foot, declined him again

None of Dwight's dunks impressed me much. Not because they weren't creative or tough to do, but mainly because of his body. He is simply too big and wide for any dunk to ever look beautiful and acrobatic. He even said it himself when he sowed why he doesn't like to hang onto the rim after.

If Moon did any of those dunks, he would make them look a lot nicer, simply because of his height and body type.

I disagree with those complaining about the advance hype in this year's dunk contest. I think the event needs a bit of this. We all there's a difference between doing these things in a practice gym and doing it with 20, 000 people watching and that right there is why the advance hype is good. It's no longer about, "The dunk contest is on-- I wonder who's going to do what;" it's, "I know all these guys have crazy stuff planned but what will they try, when will they try it and how nicely will they pull it off?

Dwight's aware of the big man disadvantage and I think he's handling it the right way. Dude is smarter than he's given credit for and a just a physical specimen that should be cloned immediately.

I'm pulling for him after Jamario, and I think some of the dunks he showed us today were pretty amazing 6'11 or not. That switch hands, bounce off the backboard was nice. Actually, I liked them all!

PS - Somebody should try and forward this to Jamario though... ;)

Between Gay's youtube suggestions and Dwight's freakishness/wisdom heading into competition #2, Jamario's going to need a little help.
