It's much more fun of a contest when it's filled with no-name bench players jumping over props.

John Wall is explosive, I'd watch that.

LeBron is gonna do it too.
Nevermind, he isn't a man of his word, and isn't a creative dunker at all.

LOL. He is an "in-game" dunker.

He has some really nice fast break dunks, but he's just not creative with them. It's the same 2-3 over and over. It's fine, but he said he would do the dunk contest.

I agree. You would think he would like to do it b/c he likes to mess around pre-game with dunks. Seems like everyone tries to guilt him into doing it and he just doesn't want to, but says what people want to hear. There are plenty of other players that would be fun to watch anyway.

It's really no big deal, I'm just flipping some shit. I'd like to see him do the contest, but if he decides not to, it's not a big deal. There is tons of good dunkers. Plus if he would do it, for example last year, it would have possibly taken a spot away from Ross. And he won it!
