Except Jennings, they should all be too tall to qualify.

Some very interesting selections. The only one I really agree with is Blake Griffin, and even then I think his dunks totally rock because they are done in games and on defenders heads who are legitimately trying to stop him. Not necessarily the sort of thing you see in a dunk contest. Although that would be cool.

Serge Ibaka is going to win it. Russell would've been cool too though. Why not both?

Blake is going to be good. Jennings is great if his foot heals well. And McGee did try to dunk from the free throw line in a game. That's not bad I suppose.

I'm looking forward to the dunk contest as always...but sadly, I'll probably be let down.

Rudy was in because he had an entire freakin' foreign nation voting for him. And nobody knew Russell Westbrook yet. I voted for RW though.
