Dunk Contest: I will be obviously rooting for Larry Nance.. but I don't see him being able to put off enough acrobatic dunks.. he just jumps high and it looks nice with his out stretched arms.. please oh please be better than Shannon Brown lol.
3 point: Tobias Harris (hes +1000 and I place a bet on him lol.. hey you never know)
Skills: Lou will all day!

Skills contest is the second most stupid innovation they brought to ASB, after the "celebrities" game.
And I think we should have a dozen participants on the Dunk contest, the only nice thing left in this circus. _________________ ....

The only way Nance wins the competition is to do a dunk for dunk tribute to his father and wear his number. If he does that, he wins if he pulls it off. Assuming he doesn’t do that
Dunk - DSJ
3pt - Klay
Skills - Murray

Magic trying to secretly recruit? Just watching Westbrook doing his interviews and he's saying that he's on every building. That other players even mentioned it to him. I hope not, don't want him here
