...even NBA fans are asking "Who are these guys"?

Oh well, this is an opportunity for the n00bies to shine.

It can't be any more lame than last year

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

I will admit, back in the 90s it was amusing to watch since they were actually creative and tried different things and took some risks... Now its very boring with very little creativeness or risk involved.

I'll even stipulate Dominique Wilkins or Spud Webb...

Maybe even Vince Carter.

Other than that *yawn*

Iman Shumpert was supposed to be in this dunk contest instead of Jeremy Evans. His planned dunk was to jump over Jeremy Lin sleeping on a couch.

I'm sorry I don't pretend to abuse drugs on an internet message board so I can claim seeing the same dunk being done by every single player excites me.

No. Plus, the tourists generally stay west of town. Instead these were all downtown (where I had to pick my sister up after work), at the Mall of Millenia(near where I live), and over at the outlet mall (where I went to the movies). It took me an hour to get from home to the movies. It usually takes 15-20 minutes, tops.

Actually I haven't watched an All star game in ANY sport for at least 5 years now. I do however watch sports center and see that the "top 10 plays" are all the same play.

You're totally right about the lack of creativity. 3 of Blakes misses last year were more impressive than any of these dunks.

Yeah that was nice. People might not realize how hard it is to catch 2 balls in midair and dunk them both

I blame Lebron, he's a puss. Every pre season he tells people he's gonna be in the dunk contest and every year he pusses out.

Nice. The right guy won. I still have no idea who this guy is, but he had the best dunk.
