True enough about the props and I wasn't really impressed with the birthday cake thing all that much but I loved the "bounce it off the back of the backboard first" dunk. I do think Spud was my all time favorite. It's one thing for a 7 footer to dunk but Spud showed a whole different kind of athleticism! I'm 6'3" and have always been "gravitationally challenged" so I may not appreciate them the same.
