I wonder who else is in there. They might as well invite Dwight and Nate back, even though Nate sucks at it...


Nate would take the sexy away.

How about, Moon, Green, Josh Smith and Outlaw.

O.k, they should make it 8 again. Moon, Outlaw, Josh Smith, D-12, Green, Iggy, Ariza and Rudy Gay.

If they still have the 3 years and under rule we won't be seeing Nate, Dwight or Igloo. I think Nick Young and maybe Sean Williams have a good shot.

if that happened then it would really be as magic says "THE DUNK CONTEST IS BACK!!!"


it's been back according to him every year since tnt picked up the game...

Iguodala deserves the chance to win it, he was robbed a few years back. :nonono:

Man, Jamario Moon? Eh... Not really what I was hoping for but I guess he'll make nice first round fodder for some of the other dunkers.

I hope Dwight Howard makes it this year.

I don't know who said All-star Weekend isn't fun anymore. Last years was great.

I remember that Jamario desktop background you made, I know you like him, so you can drop the act.

Josh Smith is overrated, his game AND his dunking..I'm never going to forgive his disgusting hyped dunk that was completely dissapointing..

I'll be saying this from now until he actually competes: someone sign James White, just so he can compete in the dunk contest..

didn't Dwight already say yes? so that makes Dwight and Moon so far..I'm guessing Green will defend his title..one more? please don't be Nate Robinson..

^Dude, that hype dunk was to measure where to take his first step, not where he was going to take off from. He was trying a free throw dunk. The announcers just made a big deal about the tape because he put it so far back. Go back and watch that dunk. He wasn't even trying to dunk it from there.

the kid was sick in highschool and has had plenty of time to work on new moves (because he sure as hell isnt getting any burn). Give him a chance.

I once read on RealGM that Jamario Moon was being trained by Rasho to be the next Rasho but that Moon ended up foregoing the majority of Rasho's training when Sam Mitchell learned of it and threatened to bench Moon if he actually became THE NEXT Rasho Nesterovic.

True story.

Maybe they should include an all out brawl. Half the Knicks roster versus whoever is not afraid of maybe being shot.

Why didn't Lebron or Wade ever enter the dunk competition?

LeBron never had the creativity and Wade just doesn't have enough hops
