    Cause Chase has way more hops and is more athletic? Stop getting on someone's azz cause he teabagged and made putbacks. Bud actually proved he can really dunk in contests.

    Well I'm not upset about it but I really never saw Chase as a guy in the dunk contest. Maybe in the 3pt shoot out but never in the dunk contest. I hope he can come up with some interesting dunks cause he could win it if the rest of the dunk contestents are nothing but blah!

    Why won't some ****ty team pick up James White and sit him at the end of the bench so he can be in the dunk contest? Dude's getting close to 30 -- the window of opportunity is closing.

    Speaking of which, there's also the D-league dunk contest at ASW. Gerald Green is in the D-league.

    The only thing i like is that there isn't a big name guy who will automatically win it.
    The last few years have all been hype. Just put in a star dunker and you win.
    Nate, Dwight, Blake. They casually went out there and did something here and there and got it.

    I won't lie, Bud was the last person I expected! I know he can jump out the gym but he doesn't dunk in games a whole lot!

    I think Paul George will win it but Bud has a shot I think...

    Cause when you cut a 15th man that is good, they end up becoming all-stars with the Knicks.

    Just found out I'll be in Orlando during ASW. Hopefully ticket prices will drop when everyone sees the contestants. Too pricey for me at the moment. Would love to see Bud throw it down in person.

    isn't there some rule that you have to play so many minutes in so many games or something like that, i know it's that way with the 3 point contest
