    Apparently the league is looking to replace Tyrus Thomas in the Dunk Contest after his comments about "only being in it for the money." That leaves us with a question, who will replace Tyrus Thomas? I'm hoping to god for it to be Rodeny Carney

    Carney would be perfect. I hope he gets some revenge for Iguodala.

    What about David Lee? I think we need another big man dunker in there. Big dudes always get no love.

    Just look at the duel between Gerald Green and Josh McRoberts. I thought Josh had some good stuff considernig how big he was. We forget that heavier, taller players aren't as agile as lighter/smaller guys, but he made it look good. Then Amare lost when he had some legit stuff. Maybe it's because Nash made him look better doing the soccer kick pass to him and also Amare had some problems gripping that ball one-handed.

    a big guy needs to win this contest. I'm tired of all the judges voting for the smaller players with hops. Those guys are mostly forwards and small guards. Where's the big man dunk judges?

    I guess if it has to be a sixer, go with Carney, unless there's a rule that says Iguodala can go back in there.

    ^It's not that Iguodala isn't ALLOWED to go back in per se, he just doesn't want to go back.

    OT: I wish Louis Williams would dunk more..cause he has some NASTY hops.

    Don't you think the title to this thread is a little misleading?
