Who do we want to see in the Dunk Contest? 

Post#1 » by kulaz3000 » Wed Jan 9, 2008 10:50 pm

I thought we ought to talk about something besides trade rumours and Tyrus's lack of mintues etc just for one night.

I read on Wiretap that Nate Robinson isn't going to get an invite to the Dunk Contest, which he shouldn't anyhow. But i guess, the question i want to ask is..

Who do you think will get an invite and participiate?

and

Who of the current players would you like to be in the contest knowing it would probably never happen anyhow?

and

Do we even really care about the Dunk Contest anymore? It sure has lost its luster for a few years now. Maybe we should hide it away for few years and bring it back again in the future.

I'd like to see Jordan and Nique again.

1 Rule - The first to make a dunk wins.

Actually, isn't that damn near the rule for the current dunk contest.

I want to see Howard, Josh Smith, Ronnie Brewer, AI2, Rodney Carney, Gay, T. Outlaw and maybe Tyrus if he promises to be creative and enthusiastic.

Any of those guys.

I know it would never happen, but it would be interesting to see NBA players compete with some of the street ball players or even minor leaguers.
If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.

I don't wanna see Tyrus Thomas in it. He's not made for the dunk contest. He's impressive cuz he jumps high and quick. His dunks come out of no where often times. He doesn't really do any tricks.

I'd like to see Dwight Howard (he's pretty damn creative), Gerald Green (he should be well rested), Shannon Brown, and Rudy Gay. I would hae loved to see Carter, Kobe, and Bron but it doesn't seem like they're too interested.

Dwight Howard got robbed for not winning with Sticker Dunk.

I want to see him win this year.

If it walks looks like a duck, and smells like a duck, its probably just Duck Doo-Doo. All the practice in the world won't help big ben at 33 yrs old.

I will never watch a dunk contest again after watching Dwight Howard lose last year.

The panel of judges had the greatest dunkers of all-time and they couldn't understand originality if a sticker was slapped on their face with the words "ORIGINAL" on it. What a joke.

Especiallywhen he put the sticker 12 foot 6 inches off the ground with his left hand while doing a tomahawk jam with his right hand.

Ben wallace wouldn't dunk it. Instead he would jump like two inches of the ground, turn around throw it up and hit the shot clock... all the while making some kind of Ugghhhhh sound :banghead:
