Where is Lebron James?

 

[S O F I]

Dwight Howard? LOL

and lebron is not in it because there's a 3-years in the league limit.

 

[Bachaveli]

Thats ridiculous.

I think Gerald Green will win it. Tyrus Thomas and Dwight Howard are big guys but there is only so much they can do. Nate Robinson shouldnt be in it after the spectacle last year. Jumpin over Spudd was cool but he cant do it again. Gerald Green went crazy at the All-American dunk contest so I'm goin with hm. And I'm pretty sure there is no 3 year league limit for the Dunk contest, actually I'm positive.

 

[S O F I]

^Yes, there is. That's the reason why Vince Carter, Ricky Davis, and the likes don't participate anymore. But, I will say that it's not fully enforced, but basically more like a norm.

 

[ARon]

Didn't Jordan do it in '85 '87 and '88?

Well, you are wrong.

 

[hizzle?]

I don't get the idea behind that... honestly the dunk contest will get boring by the year if they don't let all the players who wanna be in participate.

I mean, you cut like 85% of players by imposing the fucking 3 year in the league limit...

If they keep it, they should bring like two street dunkers, like that kid who does the 720... he does incredible dunks...

People wanna see entertainement, they don't care if the dunker is Pape Sow or Slammy McDunk.

^The All-Star Weekend is just a promotion for NBA players, NBA has-beens, and NBA-wanna bees. The Slam Dunk contest, specifically, is designed to promote new and incoming players. There's nothing about it being as a tool of best entertainment the audience can get.

 

[hizzle?]

Well you can put them And 1 Streetballers as NBA Wannabe's and it will be all good

 

[S O F I]

^What's the point of having and1 streetballers in the Slam Dunk contest, FOR YOU PERSONALLY?

Go on youtube, search for them and be entertained!

You can still see them on ESPN, just under another program that's all.


and by wanna-bees, I meant the likes of Nelly and Bow Wow.

 

[Eric]

No Jason Richardson = guess I wont be watching this!

I wanna see them square off against the NBA dunkers...

and I dont give a fuck who dunks it, i wanna see a great dunk...

Anyways i just said that if they wanna keep the age limit (which is really stupid), they should do something else to keep the entertainement, because god knows we've seen a lot of bad dunk contests!

 

[Snowman]

Dwight Howard... he might be alright.

The NBA does need to change the rules so the Dunk Contest can be entertaining

 

[hizzle?]

yeah apparently Thomas aint dunking this year, Andre is taking his place...

 

[Flipmo]

I think we should find Spud Web and make him to the contest.
