Who's to blame for lack of star power in the Slam Dunk Contest?
PLANT:
still, its wack that no names are competing for skills comps at ALL STAR weekend. If you look at the NHL, or the Pro-Bowl, its the ALL STAR players who are competing in the events. Not some no name bums that are not ALL STAR caliber players.
These assholes need to swallow their pride and realize the fans are the ones who pay their insane salary. The league should be forcing these idiots to suck it up and throw down a few dunks to keep us happy, and to keep the dunk contest alive.

to be honest there's only so many dunks that can be done before it becomes repetitive. oh he does a 360 windmill through the legs, yeaaaah but we aw that last year with.. people wanna see something fresh, new .. and the dunk comp just isn't it. the dunk comp is still my favourite part of the all-star weekend, but they need to find a way to get the real stars/dunkers from the league involved (blake without rigging it, lebron, westbrook etc..) otherwise it'll have to end

exactly....
+ durant, westbrook, a rose were never great dunkers to begin with....however, lebron did say he would be in the contest and then pulled out. biggest bitch move in dunk contest history.

Since that scrub Nate was winning dunk contests because he had the city of New York behind him.
