I'm happy Nate won, but I think DeRozans 1st dunk was the shit. Like Charles and them said, Nate should've jumped over those cheerleaders.

Unfortunately, not much creativity was shown this year in the dunk contest. I would have liked to see Shannon Brown win this year, but he didn't bring anything new to the table. Congratulations to Nate Robinson for once again winning the contest. He deserved it.
I agree. The shit was kind of wack. I think that's why I chose the best (Nate and DeRozan) out of the bunch being my favorites, but the caliber of dunks compared to other years were awful.
I think if next years dunk contest is like 2010's contest - then maybe it would be time to try something new - like a open invitational dunk contest..e.g. International players, D-league'rs (I don't watch them but the way Kenny Smith was talking about that one D league guy he can Jump). Could also include anyone, they would have to send in tapes of there dunking ability of course and possibly enter into a dunk-off and win.
There was supposed to be something like a "dunk-off" this year. Maybe I was mistaken but I remember hearing about it. As for allowing non-NBA players to participate in the dunk-contest, that sounds like a great idea. As for the 2011 All-Star Game, well, it's going to be held at the Staples Center so I just might be going to see it.
All Star is coming back here? Wow. It sucked as far as parties went etc. Shit was spread out (cause as you and I know, that's how LA is). You didn't know where to attend.
