<div class="quote_poster">Quoting thedude9990:</div><div class="quote_post">Sord of surprizing maybe he can be the 2nd shortest player to win it</div> It doesn't mean he's going to particpate, it just means he's invited. like lebron was invited and chose not to. Its still up to him.
I hope Robinson goes for it. The guy's a showman, and c'mon, who wouldn't want to see the second coming of Mugsy Bogues?
nate can dunk but he wouldnt pull off nice dunks that josh smith and j.r. smith did, i think nate is gonna come in last place if josh and j.r. gets invited back
LeBron I think knows he wouldnt win a dunk contest, no to bash him.. but he just dosent have many unique dunks he just throws em down hard.
^I`m with ya on that one clutch. But with Nate in the dunk contest that could even boost up hype for the contest, which would be good for AS weekend.
1. Andre Igoudala 2. Josh Smith 3. Nate Robinson 4. David Lee this would be a very good matchup and looks pretty realistic.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting The Soft Parade:</div><div class="quote_post">I like the list but I still have never seen any footage of David Lee dunking...</div> Either have I....everyone seems to be in love with the kid since he had that good game in triple overtime a couple weeks back. I don't really like the idea of Iggy in the competition either. He's the same type of dunker that you guys say Lebron is, he throws it down hard but isn't all that unique imo. I hope that they'll keep big men out of the competition this year. It's never fun to see a pf in the dunk contest, unless that have Steve Nash assisting them .
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting The Soft Parade:</div><div class="quote_post">I like the list but I still have never seen any footage of David Lee dunking...</div> I have, he won the 2001 HS slam dunk. He pulled off a few between the legs, he also had a gimmick dunk where he bounced the ball off the floor took his jersey off then caught the ball and dunked it. He was alright but i think he won it because a the other guys dunks didnt go in.
I'd love Carter to come back, but it's not going to happen.. 1. JR Smith 2. Josh Smith 3. Nate Robinson 4. Andre Igoudala Please believe ima be rooting for Nate the great
LeBron isn't a good dunker. I'm sorry, but his dunking is way overhyped and theres nothing special. Did you see his dunks in the McDonalds Dunk Contest? There is nothing original about his dunks.

You can say he's not a creative dunker, but a bad dunker? Larry bird was a bad dunker. Would you say amare stodemire is a bad dunker? Lebron gets high and slams hard, take it or leave it.

He obviously is not as creative as guys like Carter, Bryant, McGrady, J-Rich, Mason etc. but he's not a bad dunker.
i hope iguodala and von wafer makes it too. kobe says that vonny should be in the dunk contest, so he must be good.

To win a dunk contest, you can't just slam it down hard. 30% of the players in the NBA can rise and slam it down hard.
