The NBA Sprite Rising Stars Dunk Contest hasn't been the same since the best of the best dunkers, don't participate anymore...and while Dwight Howard is very deserving to vie for the trophy, things would be a lot more interesting if Vince Carter came out of retirement to challenge him.
Change
I always believe in the adage that the more things change the more they stay the same. First things first, Allen Iverson finally cut his braids off, and he now has a regular low-styled haircut like the rest of us over 25 crowd.
In other news out of Phoenix, last night during All-Star Saturday night TNT analyst Kenny "The Jet" Smith reported that LeBron James would enter the dunk contest next year, and if that wasn't good enough, fellow analyst Reggie Miller just about begged for Andre Iguodala to join him in what would be an epic battle of great high flyers.
Smith and Miller mentioned how the NBA greats have not only played a part in the dunk contest, but they have also won, so for King James to preliminarily put his name into the ring, he could very well walk the path that Dr. J, Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant have done before him.
2010, is going to be one of the most watched and interesting NBA seasons since MJ retired.

Yo...we HAVE to be in Dallas when that goes down. Real rap? No excuses. We have to be there doing what we do.
I agree man, LeBron in the dunk contest...it's so necessary to cover that and enjoy the experience.
I am willing to bet any amount of money that he won't be in the contest. LeBron will not risk losing. He just won't. If he was going to participate he would have done it already. He has a whole year to come up with an excuse for why he's not doing it and I'm sure he'll have a great one. Trust me fellas this ain't happenin.
