Well it looks as though Superman has been defeated at the hands of Lex Luthor in the form of Nate Robinson in this years Slam Dunk Contest. Nate donned his all green "Kryptonite" suit and ball then proceeded to jump over Dwight "Superman" Howard for the final and winning dunk.
I have to give it to Nate, he did his thing although after he dunked and started doing the "Superman that Ho" dance I felt like I was watching Leprechaun in the Hood. I'm a fan of Dwight Howard and everything but this year he just didn't bring his A-Game. He once again donned his "Superman" cape and even came out of a phone booth this time. He get's an A for presentation. On that particular dunk attempt he had them bring out a 12-foot goal and caught a pass off the backboard from Jameer Nelson and dunked it. As impressive as that sounds it didn't quite do him much justice. I find it kinda strange that he was allowed to do this when he tried to do the same thing last year and the league told him no. Judging by the overall weak contest this year it appears they were probably desperate and let them do what they wanted. During the contest LeBron James told Cheryl Miller that he will be entering the 2010 Slam Dunk contest and challenge Nate Robinson so we'll have to see how that plays out. As interesting as some of this stuff is it's starting to get more and more like Wrestling. LeBron might as well had challenge him to a Wedding Dress Cage match blindfolded. We'll see what happens.
