[h2]Shaq floats idea to fix dunk contest[/h2]
CLEVELAND -- Shaquille O'Neal has a plan to save the NBA's All-Star dunk contest: Bring back the superstars and do it for devastated Haiti.

O'Neal

Following Tuesday night's win over Toronto, O'Neal was asked if he would like to see teammate LeBron James participate in this year's event. That's when he offered his idea. He would like to see former dunk champion Vince Carter, Kobe Bryant and others take part along with James.

"As his manager, I will only allow 'Bron to do the dunk contest if Vince Carter comes back out," O'Neal said. "If Kobe comes back out and if another big name comes back out. If we could get a big prize and have half of the money go to the people of Haiti and the other half to the winner.

"The guys that are in it, no disrespect to them, but there won't really be any competition for LeBron. I want to see Kobe. I want to see Vince and I will allow my client to enter."

Could he make it happen?

"I'm saying it now," O'Neal said. "So tweet it. Facebook it. E-mail it and hopefully it gets out. Vince, we're calling you out. Kobe, we're calling you out. We're calling everybody out. If those guys step up in the dunk contest, then I will allow my client to step up."

James has decided to skip next month's event in Dallas after originally saying he would participate.
 
he thinks Kobe and Vince would be better competition?

shannon and demar would destroy LeBron in a dunk contest which is why he's not doing it

Vince and Kobe are too old for it now. Vince might still beat him if it happened though
 
really though, i dont know what people keep saying "they're trying to save the dunk contest" .. every year i enjoy watching the dunk contest andthe players always put on a show..
 
Vince definitely doesn't have the flare anymore, neither does Kobe.

What high-flying dunkers are in the NBA that we haven't seen? Rudy Gay/JOsh Smith

Contest is washed up IMO

idk why, but this is terrible. big names like that and you want only half to go to haiti?

Well, donating half of the winnings to the Haiti relief efforts isn't such a bad idea.

Sure he's having fun with the idea, but he needs to just shut up already.
 
There's nothing wrong with the dunk contest, I actually like the competition this year.

How about lets not call out Kobe & Vince, but have LeBron go & have him donate his winning money to the charity? What difference does it make? IfLeBron is in it, the contest would get great ratings no matter what.

Plus, those 2 Im sure would much rather take it easy during the break (besides the ASG itself) then take part in contests... Especially since they've doneit already.

& VC would surprise a lot of you...
