Sixers fans...tonight we took a huge blow right in the sucker from the judges...and loving Andre as one of our players made it hurt 10x more.Iguodala's dunks were clearly more creative and fun to watch than Robinson's. However, when Nate took the stage, the judges had different standards because of his height.The judging was corrupt and everyone knows it. The biggest dissapointment of the All-Star weekend has just been marked down in history. Once Dirk's shot that advanced him to the finals in the 3-Point Shootout went in when he was late on the release, I didn't think it could get any worse.Thank you for the memories Andre. You are the real winner. Next year Robinson will choke in the first round and Andre will bring home the trophy.
Well said. Kenny Smith was saying the whole time that he wanted Nate to win so he just changed the score for Iggy.
The most dissapointing thing is that one of the judges put up a 10 but then he changed his mind and put up a 9.
Get over it. I wanted Iggy to win as well, and I agree it wasnt fair judging. All-Star weekend is over. Andre might get it next year, but you guys just have appreciate the fact that Nate won it.
What does winning the dunk contest matter? Nobody remembers <Censored> about the 1999 dunk contest...it just doesn't matter.

It's still a big deal because he deserved it so much more than Nate and the judges took it away from him.
Iggy's dunks were more creative? I dont really think so. We can go over each dunk and the creativity of each.But 6er fans, come on, you guys really are holding on to this too much. I mean why do you blame NATE. If you are mad at the judges, why are you mad at Nate? Stop holding a grudge against someone who shouldnt be blamed. Seriously. And the judges were a little kind to Iggy also, if you want to go over that too.
Why does it matter who won the dunk contest? My god. A few thousand dollars but thats all...All you 76ers <Censored> and moan when most people don't give a <Censored> and are over it.

Jeez like I said before if this was gonna happen then I'd rather Iggy win because its just so R I D I C U L O U S.
You 2 would probably be like this if Nate or Bobby Simons had the same thing happened to them. You got to understand about how other fans feel about their team's players. You have to put yourself in our positions.
I think AI should've won fo sho, but i'm not very concerned. I mean, if people really know who should've won, than the trophy is useless. It was supposed to be for bragging rights, and Iguodala did the better dunks, so he deserves the bragging rights.

I think Nate's were more difficult and creative. Again, we can go over each dunk if you want to.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (TheAnalyst @ Feb 21 2006, 05:26 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>You 2 would probably be like this if Nate or Bobby Simons had the same thing happened to them.

How can you be robbed when you dont HAVE IT in the first place? Iggy didnt have the win he had the TIE.
Who cares..Were talking about the dunk contest! Its over, Nate won..Was there controversy..yeah maybe, but its over now and everyone needs to move on from this..
