Rudy woulda advanced if he didn't try his dunk 6,000 times before he nailed it.This is the worst argument against Rudy when you consider that Nate Robinson actually won the dunk contest after 8000 attempts in 06.that was before they had a timer...and Iguodala was robbed that year, anyways. this year, Nate deserved it.

The new rules allow for 2 attempts after the time expires so he was within the rules. I mean god damn if you're gonna give Dwight a 50 for that first dunk he did then Rudy's 2nd should have easily been a 50. And I agree with you on Igoudala being robbed, but I was citing an example of a precedent for not being penalized for a much bigger number of failed attempts than Rudy had. If Nate wasn't penalized then Rudy shouldn't have been either. Its whatever though, all star weekend has become a joke anyway.
