    I agree plus Hart can use the minutes to develop this season when we're not going to the playoffs Anyhoot.

    I really hope he doesn't have a Shannon Brown performance.

    curious to see smith. the whole slate strikes me more as in-game dunkers, but he seems most likely to do something really cool to watch.

    i don't know, though, i think maybe they should have cancelled the event after vince carter.

    I don’t know how creative a dunker Larry is, he seems more of an in-game high flyer, but we’ll see. I’m glad to have a Laker in it though, and if nothing else I think it’s really cool that he is in it 3 decades after his father won it.

    What if as a prop Larry brought out a poster or something to "dunk on". His show could be him doing crazy dunks and finishing over the top of a "defender".

    I don't know just spit balling to try to keep him interesting. Larry can do some impressive stuff in warm ups, but I haven't seen the wild windmills and whatnot.

    Nance's participation gives me a reason to watch an event I had no interest in watching.

    Yeah, I don’t see the handles that allow for typical winning dunk performances.

    Seems like a straightforward athletic high jumping guy, but to do well, he’ll need to bust out stuff we’ve never seen before.

    Jumping high is impressive, but not THAT impressive.
