Pretty much this. Onle the Jet keeps hyping this thing up, and i think even he is getting tired of this crappy contest.

This is staged/riggged

The dude had the paper in his hand already, but the voting wasnt over yet, it was doing countdown... something wrong with votes here,.

It's probably rigged, but the only way I can think of is that they have 2 of those sheets, with one that has Ross' name on it, another with Evans, and then they just pick the one that has the winner of the voting (probably instantaneous calculations like all online polls).

It was on TSN2, which is basically like how there is ESPN2 in the US, not the main channel. Not everyone gets TSN2 while everyone gets TSN. Curling was on instead on TSN the main channel. Sigh.

My dream dunk contest at this point would be LeBron/Durant/Westbrook/Griffin.

They could literally do any kind of dunk, and it would destroy the dunk contests of the last few years.

Someone please make a gif from that KG face after a dunk. It's perfect for memes.

The best dunk in the contest I've seen in a long time was that Blake Griffin MISSED dunk

It's definitely on TV in Canada.

Terrence Ross was miles ahead of every other dunker on this night. I think it would have been better with a Ross/Bledsoe final, but I think the best dunker won regardless.

The dunk contest was actually decent. These guys need to practice before hand though, it looks like they are just winging it out there.

Exactly what I was thinking. The format and the whole East vs. West idea is stupid.

FIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Between the legs has been going down for what 20 years...I mean no originality AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!


I am so pissed. At least West Won...stupid east was so fixed to win tonight its un-believable. I was sitting there texting my last vote when Nick Cannon came walking with the results.....About +$100 million was made from bets tonight just off one of Ross's 50's....

Last Time I watch All Star Weekend....I was more entertained at pee-wee football game for my niece..

You are that pissed because the 12th best player on the Jazz lost the dunk contest in the finals? Seems like you need to reevaluate some things

I wanted to see Inside the NBA tonight not this Chuck 50 crap. I wanted to hear Shaq, Charles and Kenny rip this crappy saturday night.
