He's tall and put a sticker on the backboard. Creative yes, difficult for a 7 footer, not really.
Lets see if Gerald Green throws one down on a 13 foot hoop like he claims he can. THAT would be sweet.

6'11" - howard's height
12' 6" - sticker placement on backboard
d. howard had enough hang time to throw one down and use his off-hand to bring it up and slap the sticker on, so it's not as easy as it seems - even if he is a big man.
he already asked the nba to raise the rim to 12' last year for the dunk contest but they said no, so what's a big man to do?

Yeah that sticker dunk was sick, regardless if he's tall, he still jumped a sum three feet to get that sticker up there!

remember that his arms length counted there too. His arms, the length PAST his head, counted a lot for that one. if he is 7ft tall and he has arms that are probably at least 3 ft in length added to his height, thats 2 1/2 feet. I think I have a 24-30" vertical leap. An athletic guy like howard should have been a breeze!
The off hand use thing DOES add some to that though. Guess I just dont see it as awesome as others do!

King of Kings, Verified Trader,
Howard is becoming a serious all-around force in the league. But as long as he can dunk who cares what else he can do?

the most all around big man since tim duncan. howard actually reminds me of a young david robinson.

Yeah he's a beast, I said this stuff like a year ago when I first started watching him.
