That would be pretty funny.

Crash starts at the far end of the court, on the baseline. Flip is in the stands, about 25 rows back BEHIND the back board. Crash and Flip are staring at each other at opposite ends of the stadium and with one nod of Crash's head, he explodes down the court towards the basket.

The crowd feels that something amazing is about to happen. They all rise to their feet.

Flip's hands grip tightly around the ball. He slightly bends at the knees.

Crash gets up a full head of steam by half court. By the time he reaches the top of the key he is at maximum gate. He takes off a full foot behind the free throw line.

As Crash plants his launching foot Flip fakes the alley oop pass over the back board, takes two dribbles to the right and launches the off balance jump shot just as Crash comes back down to the Earth with a thud with the ball just leaving Flips hands.

Crash stands there, arms out stretched looking at Flip with a "WTF" expression on his face.

Flip makes the shot.

This will probably go down as the worst SDC in history.

I Agree. I don't have my sights set too high at all. I think that Shannon Brown is a lock to win it and will wow us with a couple of things, but all in all I think it will be a snooze-fest.

I really think that Westbrook and T.Will should have been in it. Ronnie Price would have been a nice change from Nate too.

And that James fella should be fined for pulling out.

Murray is supposedly a pretty good gymnast. Maybe we'll see some backflips?

question. could a player do a dunk were they throw the ball up (possibly off backboard) and do a 360 in the air before they catch the ball and then dunk it in. has it ever been done?

He should've taken Gana. Have Diop set up from the FT line, take a shot like it's a game time situation, proceed with an awesome oop. Gana fts=Perfect lobs.

Dunk contests are hideously boring affairs. Slap lipstick on a pig, put gold foil on a turd, it's all the same. Crap core, shiny exterior.

They should absolutely get rid of it.

Flip is going to shoot until he catches fire--literally. Using his acrobatics, he'll contort into a circle, which Wallace will jump through. It should be a night to remember.

Flip as the dunk partner is stupid, he needed a PG.
