What is up with the NBA right now? there is some definite hate for the Nets right now: Sean williams wasn't selected for the dunk contest and who did they choose instead? Jamario Moon! i am seriously pissed off
I don't know if you know, but Jamario Moon has some crazy hops. Sean Williams is a good in game dunker, but what he could actually do in a contest is limited. Just like Dwight Howard can't win. It will be between Moon and Gay.
I absolutely don't care about selection for dunking contest as long as Sean keeps improving his game and turns to be the one we (at least me and Jigga) expect him to be.
I don't understand the hate towards Jamario. I'm glad he got chosen because I'll finally be able to see what all the hype around him is about (he's supposed to be a very great dunker). And it's just the dunk contest, it only needs four participants. Obviously a lot of people will be left out
Wow...you guys have no idea what you're talking about. Sean isn't even a good dunker. Nets fans make me wanna gag.

Jamario is a former Globetrotter. 'Nuff said. (I hate 'nuff said arguments, but more really doesn't need to be said to justify Moon's entrance. He's a better dunker than Sean. We're talking about a player who's sole job was dunking at one point compared to a Keon Clark sequel.)

Welcome to S2 JGD! If you have any questions about the site shoot me a PM. In all honesty I don't think Sean has dunk contest ability. Sure he's a freak athlete, and he's really only 6'8", but I haven't seen the dexterity and quickness necessary to pull off the crazy stuff mid-air in him. He can jump up really high and float (almost), but I don't see the guy throwing it between his legs anytime soon. I think Jamario is a great choice.
I could see Sean pulling off some (though not all) of Dominique's old moves. He's got that sheer explosive vertical that is breathtaking all by itself.
I would have liked to have seen Sean Williams in, but you can't really argue against Jamario Moon's selection. Sean will almost certainly be selected to participate in the Rookie-Sophomore challenge, as I think Josh Boone should as well.

The next time you're at the game look at him during warm ups. He's about just as tall as Jefferson (6'8") and Boki (6'9").
Dunk contests have gotten boring IMO. Yes they have there week of sports highlights but we have passed the age of domination. Would have been cool to see Williams try something with Carter but I'm just happy Nate isn't in it. Also, Williams hops are just as good as Moons.
Sean williams is just a power dunker like amare stoudemire and kenyon martin. Moon may have a chance at winning.
