Title: Jeff Green in the dunk contest ?
Post by: masteremile123 on February 01, 2013, 06:51:10 AM
Would you like to see Jeff in the dunk contest , he had what is probably top 5 dunk over al jefferson , the dunk over jermaine o'neal and his dunk against chris bosh so he could make a good case for himself...

What do you think ? Does he have a chance ? I know it will be a huge comeback story if he wins it...

Jeff's had some good in game dunks, but his not athletic nor is he flashy enough to compete in the dunk contest

a few guys who could be in it off the top of my head:
Jeremy Evans, James White, Iman Shumpert (if knee is better), john wall, Gerald green, Russel Westbrook,josh selby

Averey Bradley has some nice dunks... Not in game.

He's not consistent enough. He'd probably have two great dunks then kind of walk off the court without Doc yelling at him to be more aggressive and stay focused.



Also the Dunk Contest is so bad now that I'm not sure I want anyone in green in it again.

the contest is a farce.  I'd like to see it terminated.

Last season, but

Anyways, I would love to see it because it would give him a chance for new stuff, but he isn't that "flashy" kind they go for.  And the dunk contest keeps being awful every year so their strategy is definitely working!

He's definitely athletic enough.  Guys his size don't move like he does or get their head up a the rim very often.

He could definitely put up a good show I would think. Hes no Gerald Green but man can he get up and finish with some thunder.

He probably could be pretty good, but he seems like more of a posterizer/power in game dunker.

ditto, with the whole all star game close behind.
Does anyone actually watch this stuff anymore?
