Howard once again got most of his points in the first half of the game. I'm starting to wonder if this is much more than a coincidence.

Dwight getting f*cked over going 7 for 7 (16 points, 9 boards) and getting like 2 touches in the whole 2nd half. :(
Would've had more rebounds too if he wasn't getting double teamed on the boards. :)

After this weekend, I'm getting his All Star jersey, very nice.

Dwayne Wade was worthless by the way.
LBJ would love to have Dwight. :D

Shaquille O'neal may wear the Superman "S" on his shoulder, but Dwight Howard wears it on his chest.

LMAO OMFG I'm laughing so hard for that post. I saw him when Kidd was doing the Skills competition. He looks 10, has a fat shaped head, and has a mustache.

The NBA, as you know, has rejected Dwight Howard's request to raise the rim to 12 feet during the dunk contest for two successive years.

What I hadn't heard until this week is that standard NBA rims apparently can't be raised more than a couple inches higher than the regulation 10 feet ... and that even such minor adjustments are seriously time-consuming.

It was brought to our attention that rim height actually can't be easily changed with the help of hydraulics as widely presumed. The league maintains that the only way to make rim-raising an option during the annual All-Star Weekend contest is by bringing in a special third basket with that capability. Which does raise the question: Where do you put it?

League officials insist that such logistical concerns are largely behind the refusal. Orlando's Howard and fellow dunk competitors Gerald Green and Rudy Gay all wanted the option of raising the rim to 12 feet (or higher) during the contest Howard wound up dominating in New Orleans.

Which makes a lot more sense, frankly, than the league's previous claims that moving the rim clashed with their intent to apply as many NBA rules to All-Star Weekend contests as possible. No contest already breaks more rules of the game than the dunk contest.


ESPN's Weekend Dime

So that's why.
