    This should be the best dunk contest since the Vince Carter years. The lineup is seriously stacked. It says something when the least impressive dunker in the competition is the guy who won it last year.

    -As for the judges- WOW.

    -I dont know which of these participants are worthy of the honor, but if one of these guys pulled Yao out there and dunked over him, it's would bring the house down... just not so sure what I think about someone from any other their teams they represent dunking over a Rockets legend.

    -Also, if we go throughout this entire weekend without one Deke swat & finger wag, I will be extrememly dissapointed.

    Man. This is essentially a panel of my heroes. Not necessarily my 4 favorite basketball players (I wouldn't count Yao and Deke among that), but all near the very top in terms of who just seem like awesome, nice guys.

    pretty cool lineup...

    moses, dream, francis, tmac, yao, harden would be cooler.

    evolution of the rockets and whatnot.

    Rudy, Rudy, Rudy!!! This keeps getting better and better :eek: I will freak out if Thorpe is in any way involved. Now this really just needs Elie, Thorpe, Herrera & Max to make things complete :grin:

    tintin, if TMAC were in the contest, he would do much better.

    Didn't see this posted but they're actually judging the whole first round! I figured it would be ceremonial and fans voted everything but this makes it a little more interesting. I can see Rudy & Yao being critical, Olajuwon serious but going along with the excitement and Deke & Clyde giving 10s like crazy! Deke is probably going to jump out of his seat laughing along with Clyde, can't wait :grin:
