    Gotta admit a 720 is pretty impressive.

    I can't help but wonder if Shaedon is watching this and it motivates him even more to show the world he can be a great player. I sure hope so.

    I think the great thing about Shaedon is that the dunks he does are crazy, and IN game...instead of not dribbling and taking your stride (which is how the dunk contest works, so it's not a crack on Mac).

    I think Shaedon kind of shy's away from that kind of attention, but I hope he doesn't shy away from dominating on the court.

    Congrats to Mac though, he earned it.

    I almost feel like these announcers are being pretentious with the talk about MacClung…

    Meh fuck off. He was just the best of the bunch. Don’t invite him if you’re going to act like he’s a token

    They did the same thing to Rudy. It pissed me off so much.

    Did anybody on here predict Mac would win? He wasn’t Sharpe’s replacement either FAMS!

    That's exactly how they treated Rudy when he was there.

    That dunk that he did off the backboard was awesome and they totally panned it.

    And then disrespected his choice of honoring Fernando Martín by wearing his uniform was such bs.

    Hakeem won MVP, DPOY, 2 Finals MVPs. He’s not underrated at all. Even if there are idiots who don’t know who he is.

    The All Star game is a marketing/media event.

    I hesitantly watched because I hate the dunk contest and I was lucky enough to have the remote tonight, so thought what the hell. But yes, I told my wife McClung would win. Mainly because I’ve watched him throw down some nasty ones in highlight videos and because dunks are more impressive from a 6 footer rather than watching a 6’10 guy put his arm in the hoop over and over.

    That doesn't answer what that post had to do with the all star game or the festivities surrounding it.
