[h1]Shannon Brown Could Be In Dunk Contest[/h1]



Nov 25, 2009 4:05 PM EST

Lakers guard Shannon Brown has been gaining some attention for his dunking skills.

There have been whispers in Los Angeles that he could be included in the dunk contest during All-Star weekend.

"If I'm able to get into the slam-dunk contest, I'm all for it," Brown said. "I keep saying I'm really not thinking about it. I'm trying to help this team win ballgames right now."

The Lakers have only had three players participate in the contest: Michael Cooper in 1984, Antonio Harvey in 1995 and Kobe Bryant in 1997.

"I promise you, if I'm able to get in the dunk contest, it's going to be something special," Brown said.

IMO no point it's the equiv of having Earl Smith & Rudy Gay in previous years....only great in game.

I think DeMar DeRozan said he wanted to participate in the Dunk Contest too.

 

[worlds enemy]

Better not get snubbed again to Lebron

 

[damnthosejs]

meh. He can catch some great air but we all know Richard Jefferson can do the same thing (and we all know what happened to that)

Tdot, you think Sonny Weems can do it? I've seen him do some fancy ones during the pre-season.

 

[DYNAMICS]

I rather Weems than Demar.

 

[jayt206]

^^I think Sonny Weems and Demar Derozen would be good canidates, not so sure about Brown though.

 

[damnthosejs]

NVM, I didn't know he won the 08 NCAA contest:

Those 2 guys don't come close to Shannon's vertical

which is why Shannon has the potential to be more entertaining

[DYNAMICS]

It's not that serious just an opinion, I could go the regular NTer direction and call out both of you are obvious Lakers Fans. But there's point andI'm a fan of Shannon Brown.

 

[the game is a foot]

Josh Smith, Iguodala, Jason Richardson, Dohntay Jones, Nate Robinson >>>>>>>>>>> Shannon Brown

 

[iminchucks5]

u cant call us out cause we're laker fans when Shannon does in fact have a higher vertical then rudy gay

I'm sure you saw the McD's contest. To call him only great in game is just wrong
