If you recorded the broadcast, listen to what the ref says to Iggy 2:10 in (the beginning of the dunk-off)... "One dunk, make or miss. One dunk." If that's true, Nate should have been disqualified before Iggy even attempted his final dunk. Oh, I'm sorry. I recall Iguodala blowing his first attempt in the dunk-off, too. Therefore, if Robinson gets disqualified, so does Iguodala, I declare Hakim Warrick the winner as he had the highest first round score aside from the two cheaters.

Well then they're should've been a tie. It's that simple.
And not to mention fair.

You can't have a tie in the dunk contest. You go to a second dunk-off. Tying the dunk contest is like tying the 2002 MLB All-Star Game.
Oh, and if they'd declared it a tie, I bet you'd be crying about that too, saying they couldn't bear to see Robinson lose because he's 5-9 so giving them the tie.

So Nate won on unfair grounds. I'll take it.
A tie would've been better than nothing.

Nate won fair and square. Get over it, and quit crying like a little girl whose Barbie doll just got decapitated. If it were any other player, who cares, but since it's your precious Andre Iguodala, OMGFIXEEDDDDDD

Fine. Nate won. I at least know my favorite dunker can make a dunk after one or two tries. That's good enough for me.

I'll vote for any man who nearly kills himself to win a competition. That's high on the level of ballsyness. Slightly lower than Dick Vitale's. But it's up there.

Maybe you should, considering you just admitted Nate won the contest.

Maybe Jamison's right.
Anything else you'd like to complain about? Since you're already pissing some people off, might as well make it worse...

That was pretty funny, the little dance move the eastern starters did.

That was pretty funny, the little dance move the eastern starters did. I thought what LeBron did was asinine when he got his name called with the Diamond Cutter. That's one of the things I do not like about him- the overuse of that symbol.

Is Iguodala's losing the Dunk Contest really that important? Think about what giving the brass to Nate Robinson does to the contest and the ASW overall; people have been saying that the Dunk Contest is back and the excitement has returned. Its not like you lost 500 dollars because of a bet or you sold ur soul to the devil

LeBron James is Allstar Game MVP.
So did Allen Iverson get robbed of the honor?
LeBron totally deserved it in my opinion. He sparked the East, scorin' 29, grabbing 6 boards, but only had 2 dimes. But, he really was the catalyst to the East. Good job, Bron, there will be many more MVP awards this season for you I think. And more NBA MVP Allstar game trophies for you too.

Kenny Smith needs to die. Apparently, twice during the contest he lowered Iggy's vote 1 point. But hey, that's what happens when you have a midget that can dunk. Barkley said it best. They're biased against the taller players.
Meh, let New York get this fame. This is the highlight of their season...
