[you big dummy]

Nate Robinson's back

Don't like any of the three rookies


I see Dwight repeating

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Jamario Moon was robbed last year.
He was going to unleash some serious stuff in the second round.

 

[jville819]

If Rudy can get creative he got this easily.

Why not? Joe Alexander might not be the best of basketball players right now but he sure as hell can fly

 

[mben32]

[offbad]

[the pga tour]

NBDL dunk contest >> NBA dunk contest this year.

 

[carolinapack04]

votin for joey as well!

 

[pr0phecy718]

i thought nate said he retired

 

[skip0011]

joey all the way

 

[ezflash26]

J. Moon didnt get robbed, Gerald Green got robbed...

JR Smith got robbed gotdamnit...switch out Rudy, put JR in...switch out Nate, put Gerald Green back in.

Either way tho, if Joe Alexander gets in, this will be the best Dunk lineup in a minute...

 

[Mister Meaner]

Nate the Great!

Let's get this W (legit this time).

 

[wstcoastgotti]

[23michaeljordan45]

Dwight might win again, if he actually dunks the ball this year

[Bend_The_Knee]

[jordannb23]

Lebron needs to do 1 whats his problem

 

[kidjustice19]

Nate

 

[nychiphophippo]

I think Alexander is the only one of the three candidates that actually has a shot at winning the dunk contest

 

[guerrilla warfare]

Rudy Fernandez...

 

[dman14]

co-sign.


i'm expecting a better showing from Rudy...last yr was a letdown.

 

[bhzmafia14]

I don't see Dwight Howard winning it again mainly because I don't think he can top what he did previously. Nate will get love from the judges mainlybecause of his height, but he's going to have to come with it. If Rudy can get creative, he has the ability to outdo anybody out there.
