    No, he got snubbed. I thought he should've had some recognition for being a starter on a semi-decent team.

    The rookie/sophomore game is usually almost unwatchable... no big loss.

    Disagree, to a point. I love watching the players play BUT the actual kids in the stands make it unbearable.

    I expected more from the Dunk-In but like they said, DeRozan's just saving it all for tomorrow. Anyone else see it?

    DeMar won.

    First dunk was a reverse through the legs.
    Second dunk was just a windmill.

    We'll just have to wait and see what happens tomorrow. I really hope he doesn't go overkill using the props and comical stuff that's been going on the past couple competitions. The dunk competition is starting to become more about the surroundings of the dunk rather than the dunk itself.

    I noticed the tension too, deception. It seemed to come after Chuck mentioned something about Shaq's comments regarding Dwight and Superman or something? What did Shaq even say about Dwight?

    i missed shaq's comment as well. although, im thinking that shaq mocked dwight's superman persona and the chuckster was goading dwight into a response but dwight wasnt playing. i kinda sympathize with dwight because he was a guest and should have been treated as such. plus, it took the spotlight away from derozan and gordan who should have enjoyed the big lights, instead the dunk-in became the backdrop to their running jab fest.

    I think 61% is pretty good considering the average canadian basketball fan was probably watching the opening of the olympics, i was worried he might miss out on votes because of it. i think eric gordon might had lost votes for all his missed attempts. im just glad he made it. and why is reggie miller sister still at all star games...should be exclusive to the wnba, keep her out of the nba

    i hope your kidding about cheryl miller because she is considered by many to be the best female basketball player ever. and her knowledge of the game is better than most of the commentators on the airwaves today.

    Too bad her communication skills are far below average.
