    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    Can HCP chime in on this, what do the players and coaches think of guys like Clownzano and Jaynes? Surely they think they're jokes like we do, right? Hope they don't put any stock into what they say.

    Putting him in all five events sure seems like the league is setting him up to be a major face of the Association going forward.

    Lakers offer Kobe for lillard, blazers take it. Silver establishes self as Sith lord.

    completely unrealistic. The most we'd get back is Nick Young and the right to swap 2nd round picks in 2021.

    why? I'd love to see Dame and Wall go head to head in every event

    Re: Lillard in dunk contest.

    I think this is a mistake. Lillard can dunk, but he's not a spectacular dunker. I think the other guys will outshine him. I also think he runs the risk of over-exposure.

    Re: Lillard in dunk contest.

    whatever Lillard's chances I like the trend towards a little more star power. in future years might end up luring LeBron, Griffin again etc.

    Re: Lillard in dunk contest.

    Yep, these events can't be more tiring than even a single practice.

    I disagree, 5 minutes after trade Kobe would be arrested for another rape and we'd be left with nothing.

    Re: Why is Dame "considering the three point contest?"

    If it's Wall, it wouldn't be Dame, so they wouldn't go head to head in every event.

    That said, Wall is not a good three point shooter, so I highly doubt he would be in the three point contest.
