Favorites from the 2011 NBA Dunk Contest
The NBA Dunk Contest has been more of a “been there, done that” kind of event during the All Star Weekend. But the 2011 contest showcased creativity and originality making the event watch worthy once again. Sure, fierce dunks are impressive but add in an element of style, and you have something special. Here are a few of my favorites from this past competition.
Serge Ibaka rescues a stuffed toy stuck on the rim. That takes some concentration!
Former Nevada WAC-er JaVale McGee, I think, had the best dunks of the night. Here’s JaVale dunking two balls in two rims.
Two balls not good enough? How about dunking three balls?
But this dunk is downright nasty, especially in slow motion.
LA Clipper Blake Griffin bested the bunch mixing power, athleticism, and showmanship. Here’s his winning dunk jumping over a KIA car.
That dunk may not have been that difficult but it made for great still pics like this.
