Featured Home Automation HouseSteven From EC Writes: Dee Brown can improvise. The former professional basketball player is probably best remembered as the diminutive guard from the Boston Celtics who won the 1991 NBA All-Star Slam Dunk contest, first by “pumping up” his Reeboks and then with his gravity-defying slams, including an electrifying finale in which he covered his eyes with his arm in midair.

OK, so some of the act was rehearsed, but Brown knew how to engage the crowd and fire up their imaginations. The guard was known in basketball circles as being pretty savvy in ways off the court as well, making his closest travel companion a laptop computer, on which he did his own computer programming.
