:o That one is sweet. I also like this one, although it looks better with the left side cropped out.

This one should win.

P.S.: It would be interesting to know in some of the pictures if the players made the dunk or not.

you mean Derek Anderson? I don't see Posey in the picture.

looks like they called a foul in the act and DA is looking to the ref to see if it was called on the floor or in the act of shooting.

That VC one is amazing with those shadows, colours and perspective.

I don't get it, why did they choose such a crappy pic of Kobe - they obviously didn't want him to get two in a row. They should have had Kobe over Nash, the one from the playoffs, instead of the one used.

IMHO Vince on the Heat and Jared on the Cavs are the best from the ones given. They're more acrobatic (Wade's too), the rest are just guys jumping high.

I wonder if Jefries made that shot...

This competition is crap, where's Vince on Zo or Kobe on Nash? From the ones given, the Carter pic is probably the best.

I'm sorry, but anybody can get shots of somebody dunking or attempting a dunk over someone. Capturing that Vince Carter at the angle, lighting and positioning of the players is priceless. That's probably the greatest NBA photo I have ever seen in my life. Too bad the focus is on Vince Carter.
