Official All-Star Weekend Orlando 2012 Thread

I wonder how hard it was for the commentators to keep (sounding) interested on Saturday night.

Paul George was robbed imo.

Paul George over 7'2" Roy Hibbert & Dahntay Jones >>>>> Jeremy Evans Camera Dunks (lamest dunk ever, and he hung on the rim for 35215 days to try and make it interesting)

Paul George GITD Dunk > Jeremy Evans 2-Ball Dunk

Paul George Larry Bird Shoutout < Jeremy Evans Mailman Tribute

I'll give you that one. The bounce took the ball too close to the rim and ruined Evans first attempt. George's dunk over Hibbert was nice.

The Glow in the Dark dunk was cool but I seen before the lights went out that the ball was flourescent yellow - yet it didn't glow? If the ball had have been lit up and we could see the dunk better maybe George would be the champ. I think the whole glow in the dark idea took away from the dunk if I'm to be honest.

the gitd did take away from the actual dunk.

I will give you guys that, the gitd did kinda bring the dunk down a bit, but it was a 360-Windmill with the lights out, that's impressive to me. I barely gave it the edge over the two-ball dunk which was impressive, but this was way better and only a year ago

True that was nice but overall we all had lower expectations than normal for this year due to the new crop of players and the format change so the Double Dunk > Triple Dunk even though in all reality the Triple Dunk > Double Dunk.

That dunk wasn't good at all (McGee) he hardly got off the ground.

Come on man, that's a 9 easy/borderline 10.

 

[DJT]

LOL I honestly thought the glow in the dark dunk was stupid.

 

[Mexi]

just saw the replay on nbatv

meh. you guys were right

made me miss the days of Josh Smith and JRich. serious contests
this was way too gimcky

Evans had some nice dunks, but the contest was meh. and I kinda feel like Air Bud was robbed

 

[elcheato]

Everyone can do the dunks JRich, Vince Carter, etc did back in the day, it's just they aren't looked at as good anymore because they've already been done. The dunk contest has run its course, and the only way of keeping it semi-relevant is turning it into a prop contest.

 

[Yankees2772]

Look up some of the dunks Dobbs has done, and 5'11 white Jacob Tucker too.
