Better than Nate's...but 10s?

Agreed. 9 tops.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

What a dunk from Gerald Green! Deserved winner. If Nate would have hit that dunk 1st off he woulda had a chance but he blew it.

Check back tomorrow for commentary on the All-Star game.

D12's sticker was just brilliant. It's the NBA version of Joe Horn's cell phone.

How ironic that the Christian Avenger, Dwight Howard, would start that.

It was a good contest, but not the most amazing one i've ever seen. Green was destined to win a Dunk Contest with his jumping ability. Nate didn't seem as prepared this year. He said he had something amazing, but then he didn't really do anything special. I still have to admire his ability making it to the finals again this year. It's hard to win the dunk contest 2x in a row.

This guy got BAMBOOZLED




If I were him if I should so happen to get asked next yr I'd decline and just flat out say the contest is a joke. If there's a fine for declining just pay it.

Sticker dunk was the best one. Loses points for preaching at me, though.

yeah, it wouldve been cooler if he called someone out with the sticker (like david stern for not raising the rim for him)

Yep I agree. How do you even decline such a request. I can't stand David Stern

Magic made a good point about Nate being a runner and jumper as opposed to being a leaper. Things have to line up in place otherwise it goes down hill quickly for a runner/jumper.

nate is a genetic freak of nature--i thought he did better this year than last year and that was a ballsy last finish. for guys his size--he must be 1 in a million or maybe more. .

You guys are blind.

Dwight Howard is 7'. When he jumps his head is right around eye level with the rim. Of course if he reaches up its gonna be about 3 feet above the rim! That was a lame gay attempt at a dunk! I was so pissed at that.

Also, geralds last dunk was very ordinary. I don't understand why all the judges pulled 10s. It was a dunk that Vince, and Kobe do all the time. Come the hell on! It was a windmill from the dotted line. Not the foul line! Total bull****!

Nobody did a eye popping job this year.

What I also wanna say is that micheal Jordan is a HATER! He totally was killing the scores. I know he was just 1 point off, but he was totally being a jerk with his scoring.

I can't believe you guys aren't pissed. This was a terrible contest. Tyrus Thomas is a prick too cuz he was ****y with his comments about making free money. He was so wack.

Just horrible!

Yo there are guys in Europe that could wax these losers. If you don't believe me, YOUTUBE it!

American basketball is dying. I'm so freakin PISSED!
