Dwight Howard wins again, and retires from Slam Dunk competition.

FWIW, Dwight has some sort of telephone booth dunk tonight. No idea what that entails, or how it is set up, but he said on PTI the only clue he'd give about his best dunk was "think telephone booth".

I agree that the dunk will revolve around the superman theme. But does he dunk out of a phone booth or jump over a phone booth???

I agree 100% that whoever wins has the best gimmick rather than best dunk, but I like it. I think its much better than just seeing a dunk you've seen a million times by now.

I loved the Dwight Howard smiley face on the backboard last year, and the superman cape even though it wasn't a technical dunk.

My favorite was probably blowing out the candle last year even though it didn't get the props it deserved.

Anyways, if it's almost as good as last years, I'll be entertained which is all I want.

The scoring blows. Fernandez's grab-it-from behind the board dunk was better than the one Howard got 50 on.

And the phone booth shouldn't help the score.

Fernandez should have made the final over Robinson. That step-up dunk wasn't impressive at all.
