After Nate let Green jump over him Nate should have jumped over his own cutout...that would have given him a better chance.
But yea, there wasn't anything that creative other than the sticker jump.

BY THE WAY!

Anthony mason JR of St. Johns had a nice windmill dunk IN A GAME against prov last night. His dunk could have got a 50 in the NBA dunk contest.

Sheesh.

nate quit before the finals ever started. it seemed in the interview he already gave the title to gerald. it also loooked like he didn't really prepare for past the 1st round. he should have had lee do some more stuff. what if nate brought out a trampaleen and did some flips as well??

You serious Sky? That first dunk Nate did was awesome and I don't think a guy would try the same, highly difficult dunk 12 times if he had "quit"

Green did not impress me one bit.And that last dunk was the worst. He might as well jumped over a Matchbox car.

That last dunk Nate tried to pull is very difficult for a man his size cause he doesn't have the big hands for it..

As you noticed, he kept dropping the ball or it kept slipping out of his hands once he was up the air.

At least if he had the big hands, he would've able to adjust

As JesseDark pointed out earlier from Magic Johnson's comments, Nate is a runner/jumper as opposed to a leaper so everything must fall into place for the dunk to happen.

It was a good Salm Dunk contest but Dwight Howard was robbed on that last dunk with the sticker. WOW!!
