Horrible gambling on your part. U cant take 2 when the odds for everybody are so low. Faried and matt bonner are the only bets here worth it. Bledsoe maybe

I wouldn't bet any of this stuff but I'll try to tune into the Slam Dunk Contest since it's like the only thing left in the NBA I care to watch.

[JMM]

I'm on Eric Bledsoe to win the dunk contest at 11/2. 1, UK guy. 2, dunks look better when small guys do 'em.

And Tony Parker to win the skills challenge at 7/2.

I love baseball but unless you have a player in the Derby that you really like whether it be that they are from your home town or just your favorite player then the Derby sucks. It's long and boring watching guys hit 35mph fastballs out of the park over an over again. I think the last time I watched the Derby fully it was the year Abreau took about an hour in the first round alone to hit 24 home runs which starts out okay then it's zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

The Pro Bowl is the biggest joke of them all and the NFL moving it to the week before the Superbowl was a terrible move since now anyone in the Superbowl is not going to play in that game. As far as skill competitions some of the stuff the guys do in the NHL one is actually quite good.

[Sloppy Joe]

I have no idea how you can wager on these.

James White's dunking has been talked about for years but he's favored. Terrance Ross has had some good in-game dunks.

[BeerAndPoker]

Hopefully the dunk contest don't completely suck.

Here is to when it was good:

LOL! It don't make sense when the majority of the NBA Players are negros.

Oh wait they got a negro out there now rapping to make up for it.

[simpdog]

Finals were

2013 Slam Dunk Contest
Terrence Ross (Raptors)+400 ** winner
Jeremy Evans (Jazz)+500


2-1 not bad at all

[Sloppy Joe]

Dunk contest was a complete abortion. I'm never going to watch one of those again.

[BeerAndPoker]

I don't like the whole "Let's try a dunk 10 times and get it right once" type of thing.

At least in the finals they didn't screw up that much if at all.

The contest has lost it's appeal for years now. I still like to see it in hopes for a few good dunks and their were some but the judges were handing out 10s like it was candy at halloween.

[Crowe Diddly]

I don't like the whole "Let's try a dunk 10 times and get it right once" type of thing.

The 1:30 to try as many times as you like is the worst.

The dunk where the guy had Mark Eaton sit down was the 2nd worst.

The thing is they pause the clock whenever they want during it too which defeats the purpose of having the clock in the first place.

Ha! Didn't even notice that. Watched for about 20, 25 minutes. Wouldn't have lasted more than 5 minutes if Charles Barkley wasn't there. He's what kept me from turning it off.

Barkley and Shaq calling each other "fat asses" was pretty funny. Barkley made a good point though, why aren't the superstars stepping up. Jordan competed in multiple dunk contests, as did Dominique Wilkins and a few others. How many has Lebron done......zero. A person who doesn't follow the NBA probably didn't know ONE person in the dunk contest. It's a complete joke.
