    Nate Robinson - saw him at Summer League up here in Minnesota do an AMAZING one bounce between the legs reverse. Imagine what would happen if Nate pulled that off at the dunk contest. That's crazy.

    Gerald Green - if you saw his mcdonalds high school dunk contest, enough said

    Josh Smith - He's the reigning champ and well deserved

    Vince - Time to show the youngens how its done

    Kobe - I'm sure NIKE wouldn't mind him strapping on his new shoe for them and winning a slam dunk contest. He's surprisingly collecting an enromous amount of All-Star votes.

    JRich - The best 2 foot dunker on the planet and has the hardware to back it up

    I think Vince Carter would tear up in a slam dunk contest no matter who was up against him.

    I don't know why you guys wanna see Nate Rob in it, he's great but wouldn't do anything spectacular imo.

    I think most people (including myself) are amazed that he can jump so high while being so short. Not to mention he can really throw it down.

    Am I the only that thinks McGrady is a better dunker than Kobe Bryant? Everybody seems to forget about the dunks he was pulling off in the dunk contest. But then again, how can you see the other competitors when Vince is doing a 360 windmill? [​IMG] But all I have to say is that I would take McGrady over Kobe anyday in a dunk contest.

    I doubt any superstars will compete in teh Dunk Contest. The only one I can see joining in is LeBron, but I don't know if he wants to go in it.

    Gerald Green will most likely won't be invited to the Dunk Contest this year because he's seen like 20 seconds of regular season NBA action. He'll be there in upcoming years.

    me to, judging by their performances in their respective contests.. but who can do better? Kobe was in the 90's when if you didnt have MJ's hops the dunks werent as amazing as they are there days. Now everyones doing new things, people are more creative. Ive seen Kobe jump much higher than T-Mac, but T-Mac was amazing in the 2000 contest, in the 98 contest when kobe won, there was no competition and he didnt have a huge repetoire of dunks, and he only had 2 good ones

    Its ok, he lost all credibility when he put J-Rich at #5 on his list.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">This year...

    Josh Smith
    Nate Robinson

    This list is perfect, Gerald Green may not make it becasue he has barely played but maybe his hype will get him enough popularity to get in. And the all-time dunkers list is very accurate too.

    Nah, He's a better dunker than Kobe.
    I think J.R Smith is a better dunker than Josh Smith too. Josh has more hops but J.R Smith is more creative. Im not to excited for the Dunk contest anyway. Its like everyone tries it to throw it between there legs. Unless someone puts it between there legs twice or throw it off a fat chick belly and catch it throw it between the legs and dunk it backwards i dont really one see it.
