i was hoping that GG would have thrown down a BTL over that table, that would have been impressive

I thought he'd step on it,and then jump higher using it for a 360.

I wanted him to dunk over the length of the table not the width.

I bet Gerald could pull off Air Up There's fake-720-more-like-540 dunk. If he had done that for his last dunk, I would have wept.

the contest was a little weak for my tastes, but my #1 dunk was Green's first one. #2 would be Dwight's sticker dunk. The measuring tape was hilarious.

Nate Robinson should go away and never come back. NO ONE wants to see him try to dunk 10 times.

That's right, what did I tell you. Gerald Green and Jason Kapono. Put it on the front page, the back page, the middle page...

The Bavetta Barkley race was great. I was stunned, I thought Bavetta had it in the bag. Charles really moved. Then Bavetta diving out at the end to try and get his arm out there first, that was amazing. Good stuff.

As everyone has said, Dwight got robbed.

here is my 2 cents on saturday night

1. i loved that the judges were harder on the dunkers this year. it sickens me how almost every year you see a 10 for every single dunk, atleast 1. there is no way in hell that every dunk in the dunk contest is worth a 10 yet you always have 1 or 2 judges throwing 10's around like there were beads in NO.

2. my fav dunk was howards sticker dunk though i do feel green fully was the best over all

3. i hate the shooting stars thing. its lame and a waste of time. i miss the old 3 on 3 they used to do and i really wish they would bring that back

4. am i the only one that wishes they would add a retired players game to all star weekend? i would rather see retired players out there on friday night instead of the celebs. maybe its just me

5. nate robinson and dwight howard proved what is wrong with the dunk contest. just being small does not mean you should get 1 pitty point atleast per judge. on the other side being big should not mean that what you are doing out there is easy. infact being that big usually makes jumping harder. i think they need to remedy that

regarding point 5, i agree. Look at Howards first dunk.....unimpressive? perhaps if your 6'6, but for a 6'11 C, the motion and grace that he displayed deserved a better score. If Nate is gonna get compensation for height, then why not Dwight.

So far it looks like Amare should be the MVP.

West wins 153-132. 41 assists for the West. Why did both teams shoot 5-9 from the strip, arent they the best? The West shot all day to and had 126 shots while the East only had 121.
