Wojnarowski calls out Chase Budinger and the Slam Dunk Contest

Thank the mods for the title change.

 

1. He could have listed names off the top of his head when they prepared it.

2. How is he racist against Bud, when he called out others, of different race, also? AND he's white too!

3. He called out James Jones also, who WON the competition before. All he's doing is saying the names involved aren't going to bring in a lot of people, which is completely true.

TROLL.

 

Called out Chase? He called out the whole dunk contest, overreaction much?

 

Jeremy Evans is a fantastic dunker. Can't wait to see him dunk. Same with Paul George.


Not into Bud or Derrick Williams. No expectations for them.

 

Seriously??? You claim he is racist because he thinks Bud doesnt belong?

 

Well, I'm sure if Adrian Wojnarowski was writing a stupid column in someone's driveway, Chase wouldn't look outside to see him either.

Woj shouldn't be such a hater. Hey Bud, let's Partay!

 

Serious. I thought it was Jeff Adrian.

 

I misunderstood your first sentence, I thought you typed that you had actually seen Chase dunk.

 

OP whats your problem? I ddint relate anything you posted to what Adrien said.

Honestly he has a point, its a allstar weekend. Not a all asset weekend which is what this dunk contest is. Honestly, if Chase wasnt a rocket I would be wtf is this crap. Wheres Blake and Nate and DH?

 

I quit watching when Nate used Howard to win his dunk...who cares these days.

 

Hey I'm excited chase is in the contest, hope he wins it...with only superstars in it becomes popularity contest, when not well known people are in it then it will be about the dunks...I'm watching it and wishing the best of luck for chase

 

How's Nate Robinson a star?? I mean, he pretty much became famous by being in the dunk contest... And as a player, he's been bouncing around from team to team for a few years now...

 

I am praying that Chase proves everyone wrong, but I just don't see it.

(COME ON CHASE!)

 

We got an All-Star among the baseless and worthless threads. First, the OP needs to get his racism meter checked, it is running wild. Second, Woj does have a point. It's been years since I've tuned in to one of these weekends, to me they have fallen in the bleh category where the GRAMMYs and other award ceremonies have always been.

As a fan, All-Star weekend has become an obnoxious stoppage of real basketball, I don't care in the slight-less. That being said I do support Chase, I think he has enough hops, to me the competition has turned into a creativity contest, although not a good one anyways.

 

Who did Evans replace?

 

Iman Shumpert

 

I think he won't embarrass himself but I didn't see anything screamed put me in the dunk contest...then again the dunk contest isn't what it used to be.

 

He should request to use a volleyball for the dunk contest. Everybody and his mom know Chase is a volleyball player. :grin:

 

He called out James Jones too, even though Jones is one of the best 3-pt shooters in the league...

 

I am sorry but how is having Chase Budinger in the dunking contest exciting??
