    Re: 2009 Slam Dunk Contest

    My bad. Was trying to remember off the top of my head what he did. He did alright in it as but you could make a case for him, Josh, and JR winning it. But I wouldn't could've won it easily though.

        I never said that the contests have been bad since he turned it down. I just haven't enjoyed them quite as much as I used to.

          I don't think anyone enjoys them as much as they used to, but the pivot point would probably be the reformatting. For example, there were 6 dunkers with a total of 24 dunks in 2000, and now there are 4 dunkers with a total of 12 dunks.

          So yeah, people generally don't like it as much, but for many reasons.

            Plus it would give the NBDL some much-needed publicity.
            Great idea. They should def do this and up the prize money (50k or whatever it is now is a joke when these guys earn 15-20 mil per) to something decent and the DC would be awesome again imo.

                  Joe Alexander promises to attempt two never-before-seen, gimmick-free dunks if he makes it into the dunk contest. He said it last night on NBA TV.

                      I don't even know why Rudy Fernandez is even being nominated.

                      He isn't a dunk contest dunker at all

                          Viva la Birthday Cake!

                          Still the best and most creative contest dunk I've ever seen.. epic stuff. The replays of that one blew me away, as I don't think anyone really saw what happened (like the sticker dunk) on the initial viewing. He hung there, turned, and calmly blew out the candle.. so awesome. Unfortunately, Gerald wants to move beyond being a dunk freak show, so he would've declined the invite even if they had asked him. He got robbed last year because Dwight wore a costume.. it was a cool dunk, but come on.

                            I agree.

                            Russell Westbrook, too. He is a quick athlete, almost like a Monta Ellis... but isn't a dunker, imo. I don't see him pulling out anything spectacular or new in the contest, unless it's a gimmick.
