He's a college player who was massively hyped out of high school, mostly because of his dunking ability. He's improved his game and will probably go drafted 2nd round, but will most likely dominate the dunk comp.

Became famous for throwing down these 2 handed dunks from behind the free throw line at Midnight Madness. I'll try and find some clips.

i remember seeing footage of a really good dunker "Henry Bekkering". Did i mention he is white? lol. Nate's ere better then Spuds. When they were talking it seemed as if Spud was even a little taller but i think they are around the same height. I dont think Spud could of done some of the things Nate did.

Iguodola got robbed.

Nate only did one impressive dunk, and damn how many attempts did it take him? Iggy had all his done by the 3rd try.

Judges robbed Iggy.

He also did a FT line between the legs dunk (sort of, he was half a step inside the line).

that's if White is even in the league....more likely he will be in NBDL than in NBA Dunk Contest....would be great to see him in there though....maybe James White, Nate Robinson, David Lee & Iggy....

He's been pretty good this season, sort of getting to the level people expected him to. I reckon he'll latch onto a team, and if he's in the D league someone's bound to call him up before the dunk comp.

lol did anyone see Kobe go "WTF...?" when Nate got Spudd out from the crowd? I liked Nate's dunk over Spud, it was original, which is important. Iggy's behind the backboard was awesome. I wish they all got it first try.

I hate that midget. Iggy got robbed and you know it. He showed the most originality, the most finesse and Nate was just short. Spud is what - 5'7''? - and now we should all bow down to a short guy jumping over a short guy? I hope Iggy will come back next year, because he really deserves a title. But the level of dunk contest is really getting up, which is great.

You should not be allowed to take 14 tries and still get a good score, I liked the competition, but AI should have won it. Nate's dunks were not impressive, he was just short.

Andre got a new Idea thats kool, but Nates dunk was amazing. A guy this short jumping completely over Spud Webb and dunking :shock: Iggys dunk didnt make me say "DAAAAAAAAMN!" while Nate's did. And the other dunks of Igoudala sucked. I loved to see how he nearly started to cry cuz he hasnt won :lol:

Haven't posted in a while, got too lazy :wink: I put my vote for Iggy, He should of won. Now if someone could make a Kenny Smith dartboard and sell em in Philly there's your fortune.
