Why I hate the dunk contest is how they made it a joke. You know the history of the dunk contest, many of the greatest basketball players have entered the dunk contest. MJ, DR. J, Wilkins, etc. They put these scrub ass, no name players in the competition with some weak ass dunks. I'm talking about dunks kids can do on a little tikes hoops. It's absolutely embrassing and a disgrace what they did to this crap. And LeBron should be in the dunk contest. Not because he's a great player but because of all the teasing he has done. I mean come on now, you say you're going to enter the dunk contest, then bail? Then you tease with a tweet that says "dunk contest?". My problem with him not being in the dunk contest is because of the way he keeps trying to hype it up. Either get in it or simply shut the f*** up. He could elevate the slam dunk contest again, it's getting worse and worse every year. I honestly rather them take it out completely then this crap.
