<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">NEW YORK - Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith could become the third player to win consecutive NBA slam dunk contests when he participates in the event during All-Star weekend. Michael Jordan won back-to-back competitions in 1987-88 and Jason Richardson did it in 2002-03. Joining Smith in contest this year will be Andre Iguodala of the Philadelphia 76ers, New York Knicks 5-foot-9 guard Nate Robinson and Hakim Warrick of the Memphis Grizzlies. </div> Link
YES!!! I was convinced that if Iguodala wasn't in the dunk contest that would only mean he wouldn't want to be in it. I'm excited because after Josh Smith I would have to put Iguodala as the favorite to win it! You guys don't even know how excited I am right now for Iguodala and the whole 76ers team in general.
I agree 100% man... if they didn't invite him this year, they would be crazy! It should be a good show-down between Iggy and Josh Smith. This could do wonders for Iggy's career... but we'll see.
Go Iggy! I'm not really sure who will win it. I doubt Hakim Warrick will, but out of the other 3 it will be good. Nate will obviously get free points because of his height. I think J. Smith will win it again, but I won't be surprised if soemone else takes the title from him.
Is it just me or is AI2 going to be exactly like T Mac? I was thinkin this earlier in the season but now... he gets in the dunk contest The Prophecy Will Happen the AI2 - TMac comparison shall now be refered to as the prophecy
Finally some real athletes showing off their incredible hops!!! Good to see Iggy in the contest and I am sure he will do extremely well. Josh Smith must obviously be the favourite, but lets hope Iggy pulls out some creative dunks and does the sixers team proud!!!!

Iggy is a much better defender while T-Mac is a much more explosive scorer.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Avery:</div><div class="quote_post">We should all get a sig to support him.</div> I'm up for that... who wants to make one?!
Andre and T-Mac..haha more like Carter with defense. But yeah I'm really happy that Iggs got invited, I can see him and J Smoove going at it in the finals.
Yeahh I cant wait to see what Iggy does. AI will be there, hes an allstar, Korver should be there at the 3 point contest, and Webber might be there as an all star. With those 3 cheering him on and getting the crowd into it I think Iggy will win it.
