Year after year after year all we get is 4 f*cking contestants!! If that wasn't bad enough look at the sh*tty field.....

Iman Shumpert
Chase Budinger
Paul George
Derrick Williams

No Jeremy Evans!!!!!!

Out of all of those the only good one is George IMO..... can't say I've seen any of the others in any highlight reels with big dunks; apart from Williams getting lobs from Rubio.

What a crock!!!!

yeah that is a pretty terrible crop for the dunk contest. My personal pick would be Shumpert because I believe he's got great athleticism from what i've seen and definitely has the confidence to go with it.

I don't watch a lot of Knick games, so maybe I'm wrong. Just haven't seen any big time dunk highlights from him.

3 point contest- Kevin Love, Mario Chalmers, James Jones, Joe Johnson, Ryan Anderon, Anthony Morrow

Slam Dunk contest- Derrick Williams, Paul George, Chase Buddinger, Iman Shumpert​

Not very Good Participants overall, Wanted to see Jan Vesley in the Dunk Contest!!!!!​

I would've wanted to see at least one of GSW big 3pt shooters in the contest. And no star power at all in the slam-dunk contest.

No-one has seen what Derrick Williams can do yet! Paul George has some skill I would say he is the favourite and Williams could be the upset.


BUT!

Yes, woeful effort given all the talent in the league. I think everyone is too tired!!!

Firstly......... what's with the weird ass text!?

Secondly..... not a huge fan of that 3pt lineup either...... why not give Korver a chance!? Has he ever been in it? But happy to see Morrow in it! Why put JJ in when he's already in the AS game!? Why not give another guy a 'shot'!?

Direct quote of mine from BO:

Fan voting... which is never a smart way to decide something important... is the only thing used to determine the winner. So it's a rubbish lineup and the most popular player will win. Awesome.

There is probably a lot of teams unwilling to allow their players to potentially hurt/exhaust themselves! With the shortened season it's understandable!
Definitely George for me!!!

They obviously don't always pick the right people for either comp though, otherwise Matt Bonner would have been in last year!!
Happy to see Ryan Anderson in 3pt though!

Another no-name is not what we need. By no-name I mean that they won't be very recognisable to the average NBA fan.

You need guys like Westbrook, Iggy some fresh faces but not a freaking drop in talent.

IF you watch the Part when he got drafted the Broadcasters said that he must be in a DUNK Contest!

I just reAd that Jeremy Lin is going to be doing something in the dunk comp, wether his a late entrant or his throwing lobs to shump or something I don't know, but there's the star power you have been asking for.
