Lmfao? As if this will be a strain to his fitness....please be joking, lol.

[ImKobe]

Will he pull a Lebron and not show up for it like 3/9 didn't in 2010?

Damn, amazing how Dwight's life completely changed for the better once he finally realized this year the true and deep seeded message behind Kobe's "soft" comment :applause:

Believe it or not there are players in the NBA besides LeBron & Kobe.

Anyways, I guess I'm ok with this. I'm sure he's just doing it for a bit of fun... but I don't see how he realistically will be able to compete. Yes, he can still get up... but he can't get up like he once did and the endurance to do repeated jumps won't be there either.

He's probably a first round exit but I would be pleasantly surprised if he goes further.

He only has to jump what? 4 times to win? 6, tops? I think a pro athlete can handle that.

As the last Dwight stan, I place this solely on being teammates with LeGoat James. His training regimen and the money he spends on things for his body had to show D12 some tips and tricks.

It's truly amazing how much Lebron has revitalized Dwight and many other veteran careers league wide

Before LeBron: journeyman
After LeBron: possible 6MOY, Dunk contest champion, career high in FG%

People were sketical about Dwight, refusing to let him come back to Lakers


High BB IQ fans already knew the 'Mozgov' care package he would get next to Lebron.


Truly awesome to see Dwight finally having the time of his life out there. At the end of his career, as a role player

First you guys complain that no-namers participate in the dunk contest

Now a guy with name-recognition who will bring in a little ratings bump wants to participate but he's too old (despite being roided up), and still complain.

This forum--and most sports online communities at large--are all just a giant b*tchfest.

[scuzzy]

Could care less tbh, haven't seen a ASG or dunk contest in years


Couldn't even tell you who has won in the past decade


It's just a big celeb-athlete orgy fest marketed for kids and that's cool, players need a break from this ridiculously long season

[Mr Exlax]

Let me clear for you hoes real quick though. My guy was the man until BACK SURGERY.

Shame Kobe got him post and not pre :cry:

[HylianNightmare]

It will be cool to see him in it again even though it is almost 10 years too late

[Celtics 1825]

What's his old ass doing there? Is he trying to get injured on purpose or some shit?

[yeaaaman]

Pretty much. Just glancing at the article it mentioned getting him to commit to bring a draw and excitement back to the event. Maybe the idea of marquee names. Whatever should be fun
