It was Dwight’s night

The 2008 NBA dunk contest did not disappoint with Dwight Howard literally soaring to victory. He, along with fellow contestants, Rudy Gay, Jamario Moon, and 2007 winner Gerald Green displayed their skills and innovation Saturday night. Dwight Howard started out fast pulling off and dunk by throwing it off the back of the backboard and doing a reverse jam. Gerald Green nearly jumped out of the building on his first two dunks, (one including him blowing out a candle that was in his a cupcake that he put on top of the rim earining him a 50 from the judges) and gave Dwight a run at the end. Dwight Howard sealed his victory by putting on a superman cape and dunking from nearly the free throw line. there was nothing Gerald could do to try and repeat as the champ. It was Dwight “Superman” Howard’s night.
