You guys gotta real rude awakening coming when you grow up.

they need to make a Throwback dunk contest feature with the classic dunks from the past, and make these contestants actually make the dunks they practice. this is the 2nd year people aren't satisfied with these events.

IDK why ya'll want LeBron to be in it so bad. He said it himself today at All-star practice he's not a creative dunker, he's more of a game dunker.

So you want LeBron James to do what? A powerful cock-back dunk that you see him do every game?

He's 28 years old, next year he'll be 29. He's not doing it, get over it. It wouldn't be that special anyways.

Click to expand...

They don't hear you. Too ignorant and nostalgic. They want every year to be 1988 or 2000

The point is that SOMETHING needs to be done about it. Its not a good product as it stands right now. LeBron is a power dunker yeah, but do you really think he cant think of some nice dunks? Or have someone else create the dunks for him? Come on man.

In an nba dunk contest nobody cares what you did a few years back in some other gym.

Maybe next year lebron will b in it so he can do his one hand cock back on a oop from wade :/ we would be having the same conversation.

SMH the crowd sucked and these players look so bored

For the first round they need to scrap the individual dunk format and just let all the contestants be on the court taking turns in a 3-4 minute dunk-off. If they miss then the next contestant is up and it's a cycle until time runs out. No time wasted on gimmicks or the energy being drained with the same person missing 3+ attempts. The judges can vote on the 2 guys they thought had the best dunks through the dunk-off and they can advance into the Finals, which would be the traditional individual format.

I think it would make these contestants feel more comfortable too because the pace would be more like a layup line/end of practice dunk-off.

good idea

they simply need to stop being so rigid

bring in some damn And 1 dunkers for all I care

just have 12 minutes of free for all and the internet picks the winner. SOMETHING outside the damn box that has a chance

maybe they need outside help

yea i think i remember it, at least it was more interesting to watch. alot of these new guys aren't too creative. they are running out of ideas tho.

Peep Game · Feb 16, 2013

They should just have a random NBA player as a stuntman for the guys who only do game dunks.

*Blake Griffin voice* Bingo.

Lebron sucks, forget that guy

jordan23dotcom · Feb 16, 2013

I'd rather watch lebron do "normal" dunks than watch "......." Do normal dunks

dsquare · Feb 16, 2013

I know this is Lebron in high school, but you guys really think he can bring anything to the dunk contest ?

make the pass frm the other halfcourt's freethrow line :pimp:

Bert. · Feb 16, 2013

you need BIG NAMES in the dunk contest, regardless of their creativity and what not.

end of story

no one wants to watch a bunch of no name players

jdi23 · Feb 16, 2013

Scrap the whole saturday night lineup and add new events like 1 on 1 and some other stuff. Dunk contest is wack now all the events are wack now. Make it more seriously competitive. That way stars get involved an fans become more interested.

lawdog1 · Feb 16, 2013

Welp, at least I can save some DVR space. Don't need to watch any of this "all-star" Sarurday night again.

All of this.

And if LeBron actually decided to enter the dunk contest everyone would be *****ing about it being rigged for him to win.

honestly, i believe he isn't a "Dunk Contest Dunker" but the hype he will bring to the contest would be really good, and it will at least get the crowd going.

adobecs4 · Feb 16, 2013

Wonder if DRose would ever do the dunk contest

Exactly, This type of dunk contest is NOT good for the NBA, it's boring.

$tacy · Feb 16, 2013

They should just get rid of it. Dudes talking about they rather see player a do nothing than player b do nothing. Id rather see nothing period lol. U put the big names in then what? Half of these no names (green,ross,bledsoe) are way more creative n athletic than the big names.

this right here .... the past few years the dunk contest has had a bunch of no names dunking .... the last "Good" dunk contest was in 2008 when Dwight Howard destroyed the contest and he was a "Big Name"
