Xavier Garcia says:
Well, hes got my vote (not hating on the other 2 though, but hes also the best player out of the three and that should count for something)

Xavier Garcia says:
I dunno, I have no interest in seeing Gerald Green in a dunk contest EVER AGAIN for instance. I like to see GOOD players make awesome dunks, not scrubs who barely play (Alexander).

weakkkkkkk . . .
rudy now has all of 11 dunks this season — obviously dunk contest material right there. ( check it out for yourself if you actually care about having good candidates in the contest: http://www.82games.com/0809/FGSORT16.HTM you’re going to have to CTRL+F and type in his last name to find him though)
yep, 11 dunks this season. you know that’s a whole single dunk over the 10 dunks Kosta Koufos has this season. guys like balkman, hibbert and love all have more dunks this season than rudy . . .
this is just foolish. you wouldn’t give a guy a shot at being in the three point contest if he had made less than 20 threes in the season, right? why let a guy in the dunk contest if he’s on pace to have 13 dunks by the all-star break? that’s weak.
rudy gay is in the dunk contest right? he has 43 dunks this season to rudy’s 11. you know that ronnie brewer has 44 right? but who wants to actually see a dunker in the dunk contest when we can have a spanish outside shooter in there! woo!
!viva david stern!

Amar says:
sorry, gay has 42, and brewer 43 — but both are roughly 4x the # of dunks fernandez has . . .

u know what really overrated that superman crap were dwight was gonna fall short but luckily threw the ball in
that dunk was bullshit or shall i say laup or jump shot but that sure as hell was no dunk

Raj S says:
@ Ian
No, that wasn’t overrated. He jumped WITH TWO FEET from just inside the foul line and DUNKED (a dunk is when you throw the ball downwards into the rim, and Dwight Howard definitely did that).
When Fernandez sings in English, he sounds like Borat.

deathbypapers says:
@Ian, not sure if you’re being sarcastic or not, but votame is just the conjugated form of the verb votarse, a reflexive verb basically you vote (vota, with a hard a sound at the end) for me (me, but pronounced “may”).
Word up for education

Ian, i kinda agree with u, superman wasn’t the cleanest dunk, i’m not a big fan of it either, but to call it a jumper? cmon! man u’re just hatin cuz u’re a big guy with no hops who get blocked from behind all the time…
and no, gerald green dumb ass shouldn’t be there this year. he did between the legs at least four times while trying to come up with a bunch no-one-has-seen-it-before stuff, but not like Vince Carter in y2k (360 windmill going against the drain on the 1st dunk for example) but by taking the shoes off and blowing on candles.. what the fuck now? more props on dunks? a muffin and a muthafukin magic marker Gerald? pull out that egg-roll dunk! and with a million tries they get now it can be boring as fuck, cuz i just don’t think the dude that intelligent by looking at him to be comin up with this new shit..
then we got nate. this better be very good, he better show me some legit stuff, not just put it down. cuz nothing gets old faster than the small dunker crap ala Spud Webb! yeah it’s ridiculous he gets up that high, no it’s not fun to watch primitive dunks even if they are done by someone the size of an 8th grader. plus nate is solid in the category with birdman for taking 28 tries to throw it down. by the time it goes in u’re like mutherfucker thank God, move out the camera angle u piece of shit!
look, give em 3 do-overs for the whole contest and get the shit over with..
that aside, yeah, i might vote for Rudy.

amar there is no page 2 to show that nate robinson only dunked once? or maybe twice this season. if he does his between the legs thing again I’m gonna puke because birdman had 23 tries lil nate had 18. that’s double digits right there.
PS the dunk contest isn’t back until legitimate mvp candidates like kobe and lebron compete in it. they can all do the skills challenge but not the dunk contest… that’s lame

PALakerFan says:
The best dunkers are Kobe, Lebron, Vince, and Dwight. They should be in it. None of them wants to lose though, so Dwight ends up going against a bunch of scrubs.

E$ says:
Ian, you are the only one that I’ve ever heard says that was not a dunk
