I don't understand Sterns reasoning for making the dunk contest of only first 3 year players. We have a rookie v sophmore game, thats where we display young talent, not the dunk contest.

I'll have to play really well this month to earn a spot. If I don't, I'm hoping for an invitation to the slam-dunk contest. I've been working on a few things, just in case. If I get asked, I'll have a little something special prepared.</div> - Gerald Green

I dont see how it is a bad rule....and I dont see how you JUST figured it outit's the Sprite Rising Stars Slam Dunk Contest...and it has been for like the past 3 yearsand why would you want Lebron in it every year?Wouldn't you rather see a young guy "surprise" you and have crazy dunks...rather than see Lebron and be like "oh that was good but hes done better"

It was just his choice not to.
