That dleague player that was on the podium with Nate Rob won the dleague dunk competition. Kenny said the kid can do a 720. I've never seen one so I looked it up

Just sick...:hoop:

Not surprised this whole dunk contest turn out as a fail. Oh well, I was really hoping Shannon Brown would have done well. Maybe this lowers his stock some and we can resign him after the season. :lol:

Where is the creativity? i don't understand why these guys wont just go ask around for ideas or grab a video game. These guys are world class athletes. They should be able to pull off a lot of stuff. worst dunk contest i've ever seen. even worse than the ones where guys were repeating after 20 tries (at least they were trying good stuff). Shannon suck'd!

Man some of you are too harsh on Shanny. You get two completed dunks only that's rough, and the best two advance to the final. I guess Shanny was trying a different dunk the second time and his timing was off he came in too fast to do what he wantedto do, according to an earlier post. I feel bad for Shanny cuz I know he wanted to impress all of us, and shock the world, but he was too busy winning games for us and didn't have enough time to practice it. Shanny rules, don't hate, celebrate! Put yourself in that position it's a lot of pressure to be the ultimate topper.

Notes: Vince Carter is the best dunker I've ever seen, he had a perfect mix of power and grace, and Gerald Wallace might be the worst did the dude just get back from the club wtf?! He looked old too I'm like damn GWal what happened to you? Could the dunkers go cheesy and bring out a trampoline is that against the rules as far as props go it must be right?

That is the best dunk I've ever seen from Shannon.

I'd LOVE to see Nate compete again next year!

Okay I'm sold. Lakers really need to make a run at Durant when he becomes a free agent.

I thought George Karl was awesome in picking Dirk to start. Pau didn't play that much anyway.

I whole heartedly agree, pay this guy anything, get him at all costs. I believe he is more skilled than Lebron.
