    I thought voting is what determined the winner. Not the judges scoring...

    So he could have gotten all 50's for the judged dunks in the first around, and maybe even the first set of dunks in the last round, but the fans voted for the winner.

    And BTW, there is a" ?" after"wouldn't he";)

    not denying its not a difficult dunk but i've seen that so many times that its not knew or that suprising anymore.(even though he dunked it with 2 hands) a big like that does not look good dunking from the free throw line or in his case a foot in front of the line. I expected a little more creativity from dwight on his last dunk.

    I would have love to see him raise the rim a little more and challenge himself. the 12ft dunk did not look that difficult for him and we all knew he could dunk 12ft no problem.

    overall i thought the dunks stunk. the only dunk that i liked of nate's was the reverse dunk coming from the baseline where he pumped it and than dunked it. I thought for a little guy that was pretty nice.

    I highly doubt they would re-sign Turk. He's geting up in age and isn't worth shelling out big money for.

    More funnies...

    I feel you man. A couple years ago it must have sucked to be a Celtics fan.

    You know I don't mind the Celtics anymore. Their fans are entertaining and they do good business with my team. By trading for Cassel we gained $350,000. The Celtics got about $300,000 under the luxery tax. Good deals.

    He's 29. Right smack in the middle of his prime. I predict a five year $40m deal. If Orlando doesn't give it to him someone else will.

    Poor Paul Pierce. Basically his whole career has been a big waste of time. He made alot of money though. I guess that's something.

    I always liked Toine. Even when he was throwing up 17 three-point attempts a game. Helluva passer.

    They'll have a better shot at beating the Lakers than last year.

    There's four teams that can realistically win it this year, and the Spurs are one of them.

    I'm sorry but i've been right the last 7 seasons, why would this season be any different?

    And why would I hope the team representing my city does not win the championship?

    EDIT: I'd love to be wrong though.

    The Spurs have a chance, but I have to agree with Green-go. I cant see the Spurs winning it. I like Roger Mason though, he was killing it for our team. Im glad he's makinga name for himself with Papovich.
