2014 NBA dunk contest


So the dunk contest at NBA All Star 2014 weekend may turn out to be a memorable one.  If you follow the contest on a yearly basis then you should be familiar with seeing a player you have never seen before.

Most people would prefer to see relevant players.  The dunk contest was most popular when the best dunkers who happened to be some of the best players at the time were contestants.  Julius Erving,  Michael Jordan,  Dominique Wilkins and Larry Nance to name a few.

This year Paul George has decided to enter his name onto the ballot.  Its exciting to see a player of his caliber show what he can do with all that god given athletic ability.  Damian Lillard and John Wall will be in the dunk contest as well.  I'm still waiting for LeBron James and Kevin Durant  to step up to the plate but mean while it should be fun watching these all stars give us a show.

My early prediction is Paul George.  Paul's athleticism should give him an advantage over the other contestants.  Harrison Barnes is my sleeper pick.  Lets go Knicks!
