Can Jamario Moon knock the daylights out of his rivals at the 2008 NBA All-Star Sprite Slam Dunk Contest?

Let me get his one out first, I just might name my kid Jamario Moon someday.

Now that THAT is out of the way, yes, Jamario Moon will be competing at the 2008 NBA All-Star Sprite Slam Dunk contest. Don't know who Jamario Moon is? Well, I don't blame you. I didn't either.

Jamario Moon, after being passed up in the 2001 NBA Draft went playing for different teams in different leagues. Jeez... This guy has been traveling so much, switching from team to team that even Jamario himself can't remember where the fuck he has been all these years.

Well, he may have found a home in Toronto this 2008 NBA basketball season, having a solid rookie year with averages of 7.9 points and 6.2 rebounds per game.

Sure, those numbers may not be all that much compared to a Vince Carter or a Kevin Garnett but hey, those numbers are terrific for a guy who was not drafted by any team seven years ago.

Oh yeah, did I mention that he can dunk the ball?

The Toronto Raptors ''aging rookie'' will be entering the 2008 NBA All-Star Sprite Slam Dunk contest and according to Jamario, he already has something planned. That's what he told NBA.com anyway when they asked him what will he do in the Sprite Slam Dunk contest.

Er... Dunk the ball? Puh-lease guys, the next time you ask someone what will he be doing in a slam dunk contest, please think things through first and go through the questions with some colleague or something.

They also asked Jamario Moon what's it like to finally play in the NBA.

''It is a dream come true. It is like I am living in a movie. So I am just trying to keep doing what I am doing and make the movie better.''
