Damn! That was a pretty good contest. I sure hope Iggy makes a run at it next year!

Some personal feelings(like anyone cares),

Last time I will ever watch it. Robinson winning is the biggest joke. To win it twice let alone. He's punk in the league as well. I am THRILLED that Igoudala will never do it again because he got pissed in 06.

Reggie Miller ruined the whole night. The other guys weren't great either but he was horrible. I think he went 2-20 in his "predictions".

I guess the Judges want Dwight to win again.


Kenny the Jet smith is really annoying as well, your not charles barkley, please stop trying to be. Also Rudy is getting killed by the Judges.
I agree with you Rudy got screwed in this contest. This is ridiculous!! Between what Howard did and Nate did , Nate deserved the win. The guy jumped over a 7 footer :shock: !!

They both tried to be like Charles, theres only one Charles fellas. Kenny was the most annoying though, everything was sarcastic he said. I mean a few things were funny, but he was trying really hard(he did it all night, including the horse event).

By some extra leverage from his off hand off Dwight's shoulder.....

Nate Robinson should be banned for the slam dunk because he would of missed by a mile if it wasn't for dwight ducking and helping him with his shoulder and the fact he missed a dozen dunks in 06 was awful. He is the reason why not a ton of big stars don't do these. I bet lebron won't do it next year, he was playing the crowd. Dwight isn't going to do it again I bet either.

206 was 2006. He won this year fair. Whaty happened in the past should have no baring in this years contest

Congrats to Nate

See I missed Horse. I really wanted to see it but TNT didn't have it scheduled.

A lot of what he said was pretty derogatory. Charles at least has good points, mostly.

i personally didnt want nate to win just because of his punk/thug attitude he has, dwight is a fun loving comedic guy that is good for the game unlike robinson, but he did good dunks..

imo dwight should have done the free throw dunk with his second dunk and the 12 ft one for his final dunk, would have won it for sure

I agree. I think he made a poor decision on his last dunk.

Howard's 4 total dunks were better then Nate's, but in the finals Robinson outperformed him

It would be cool to see a dunk contest by height. Keep raising the rim higher and higher until one guy is left standing. It would be just a fun event for a change.

Agree 100%. I can't stand all the "thugs" in the league "keeping it real, *****".

It looked like DH was going for the first ever two-handed dunk from the free throw line, but he ran outta air. Legs must have been spent from the 12-ft., two-handed alley-oop dunk. That is the equivalent of Nate doing the same thing on an 11 ft. rim.

Dwight left inside the line to begin with, but it looked like his intentions were a 2-handed jam. Had he been the first to do that, it would have been the grand finale to a victory.

He switched to one hand at the last second.
