Magic C Dwight Howard, whose "sticker dunk" didn't wow the judges in the slam-dunk competition during NBA All-Star Weekend last year, will get another shot.

Howard joins defending champion Gerald Green of the Minnesota Timberwolves, Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzlies and Jamario Moon of the Toronto Raptors for the Feb. 16 competition at New Orleans Arena.

For the first time, fans will have the final say in deciding the winner, casting their votes via SMS TXT message and at NBA.com.

Howard caught an alley-oop pass from teammate Jameer Nelson, completing his leap of 12 feet and 6 inches by slapping a sticker of his smiling face inside an all-star logo during his attempt. Judges, like most of the crowd, weren't aware of the sticker and didn't pass Howard through the first round.

Howard said he has something special planned -- and, this time, is alerting judges before he dunks.

It's sad that he even has to tell the "judges" what he is going to do just so they are paying attention.

anyone have any predictions on what Dwight has up his sleeves?

perhaps the kiss the rim dunk? although i doubt he is that trite.

hmm..

i say he's going to grab the top of the backboard somehow, stay hanging and catch a lob from jameer

or he could just grab jordan and smack the **** outta him

either one is a bangin idea.

He's gonna stick 10 stickers on the board.

EDIT - He's gonna slap 2 stickers with both hands then someone lobs him the ball and after slapping the stickers he dunks it!

If he makes it to the final round, for his last dunk, he should tear the whole goal down.

Dwight is going to be on Rome within the next hour...

Rome said that he wants to talk to him about the dunk competition and the SVG blast and Dwight's response...

That first one would be sweet though.

Anyone who's read the dunk-blog can probably guess two of his dunks - the AI to AI one from last year, but by himself (and windmilled)
And some freaky bounce off floor, bounce off rim with left hand, dunk with right hand.

crimedog · 02-15-2008, 01:08 PM

i think he's going to kiss the rim

different_13 · 02-15-2008, 02:00 PM

Probably - we know he can do it, that's for sure.
So there's now 3 dunks we can be pretty sure about..

he said on rome that he was not going to do that dunk...

Dwight mentioned that he was gonna do some stuff that has never been seen before, so hopefully we are in for a treat.
