Let us hope Nate Robinson keeps his dunk attempts in single digits this go-around.

what a joke

The fact that Nate is even a contestant again is a disgrace.

the participants should be:

LeBron
D-Ho
Josh Smith
and maybe Amare Stoudemire

letting the no-name rookies participate is lame.

Oh, and KD is one hell of a smooth shooter.

note to kenny smith:

Pau Gasol passed to Rudy coz Sergio didn’t want to go to the all-star weekend.

In it to win it, if you want to win that contest and your the best shooter, that's how you do it

But I’m still pissed that I didn’t get to see it. When was it on? Was it not on TNT?

it was on TNT

It was just the “pre-game” stuff… on around 5pm… lasted about 45 minutes.

At least make it interesting

Shoot from the stands like Mayo did, or something….

KD had one good shot: a 3 pt-shot from like 30 feet (guessing) behind a table.

I'd also like to say

that Rudy Fernandez did a lot better than the judges (or the crowd) gave him credit for. Sure, it took him forever to get that dunk working, but he should get credit for using Gasol. And the end product was pretty impressive.

Yeah I give him credit for trying some impressive dunks

I was worried we would do some pathetic in-game dunks.
