All-Star Weekend: Rising Stars & Dunk Contest
I'd usually put this thread in the NBA section, but it's in the Mavs section this year: Woodslanger reasons.
Obviously the focus is on the Rising Stars Game and dunk contest, but feel free to post here during the All-Star game too... No need to make another thread for that.

It's gonna be weird watching Dennis dunk a ball without getting hacked for a no-call.

His missed dunks are some of his best, so it should be entertaining no matter what.

Btw, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Booker & Ellington both put up 17 pts in the 1st round? Why did Booker move on & Ellington didn't?

Everyone is wearing their team's "city" jerseys. NBA is promoting them for All Star weekend.
Granted, Mavs have never won anything in their city jerseys. |
