Moon Walked, Kapono Rocked

Well said.

I've been saying all year as well....Kapono is bona fide. Give the man some friggin shots behind the arc please for the love of jah.

Actually this is kind of ironic:

Our dunk competitor barely ever drives to the hoop.

Our three point champ averages something like 0.5 threes per game. (seems like it)

Hello?

Jamario performed well last night, I was more disapointed not to see what else he had than the fact that he lost....

How cool is moon? First dunker, first attempt, perfect execution. Too bad he didn't win it, but Howard's last dunk was something else. Most watchable dunk contest in a while...

I think I read that Kapono recently went a stretch of 7 games and took only 2 shots from behind the arc! Can anyone explain to me why we don't run plays specifically to get Jason open looks??

The real Raptors team will step forward in second half of season. Kapono with the return of TJ will be more prominent in the offence.
We can only hope.

I wasn't that impressed by Dwight Howard's last dunk where he used the mini net.

I though his others especially the backboard one were great.

My favoutie had to be Gerald Green's birthday cake and I'm suprised it wasn't all 10s.

Jamario's dunks looked really amazing in slow motion and yes he did ruin it for himself by putting the tape there.

Once TJ gets his mid range jumper back teams are going to have to pick their poison with him and Kap-one on the floor. It should open up the offence for everyone. I think Rasho will see alot of frre layups from TJ assists

k seriously, moon choked. he let his nerves get to him imo. does anyone else feel that he took a bad pass from kap1? i mean it was short and he had to left-hand the dunk....i think he shudda went in for it solo or at least shudda got Jose to dish him the lob, even tho Jose could use the rest im sure he wudda relished the oppurtunity still....im just upset i didnt get to c the 2 oranges dunk http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/nba_experts/post/BDL-in-the-Easy-Jamario-Moon-dunk-whispers;_ylt=AmusE6rCy8AOnITyVnIzWBW8vLYF?urn=nba%2C67044

That was the best All-star saturday night I have see in a long time! Dwight Howard is a marvel, an absolute athletic freak! That superman gimick had me and my boys litterally howling on the floor. Not only because it was funny but that dunk was so freakish that all we could do was laugh. Excellent event, All-star Saturday night is back!

Moon did not choke was fantastic imo Howards superman dunk was not dunk it was a layup but who cares it was fun

I didn't think the birthday cake dunk was that impressive. The Sportnet's guys were going nuts over it. Dwight Howard put on a show - he was awesome. That superman dunk wasn't really a dunk though.

Moon will be in this event again. No tape please.

You had me going with Calderon - I started looking on the nba.com page for info before I kept reading your site ... grrr.

I was having such a good time watching last nights skills competition My Wife joined me to watch the dunk contest and was amazed at how freeky athletic these guys are.
No bad feelings for Moon but I think He should of been in the finals Green was not that impressive. Moon is having the time of His life from where He was last year. A great story hope it continues

I’ve figured it out. I think Colangelo has been influenced so much by Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment and has grown too excited by seeing multiple posters of Mats Sundin on the ACC walls. Because why else would he have signed Kapono for a gazillion dollars under the assumption that, if there was an overtime game, he could send Kapono out to dominate the (3-point) shoot-out, er shooting contest?

As for Jamario, I guess he skipped his marketing class at Meridian Community Colleage where they would have taught him not to over-promise what you can’t deliver (i.e. the Kapono tape-beyond-the-FT-line thing). Props to GGreen and D’Black for an exciting and creative showing. They are both flawed players at their positions (FT% and man-to-man D for Howard, and pretty much everything for Green), but they were inventive and that’s SO important in this new prop-admitted dunk contest, because if not you'll just have Rudy Gay re-doing Wince’s Greatest Hits.

Jamario really should have done like Green (cupcake) and Howard (superman) did, with his most radical dunk on his SECOND try, because that would have pushed him past Green to the finals since his first dunk was so impressive. Oh well, better luck next year, Jamario!

Jamario jumped from WAY further than Howard, and (actually) dunked it (with his left hand!).

He could have used batman's cape out there.

SUPERMAN was dope... D-HOW is a 7 foot friggin POGO stick... ridic.. this new young generation of ballers are going to play the creative card for years to come... should be fun to watch. Jamario! Dude didn't pay attention to the rules as he had to use a teammate for the 2nd dunk... and it cost him. Happy to see him finally get recognized by the NBA.

Can't forget about JK, dude tied Craig Hodges' record... even with L-Bron getting in his face. Dude is incredible, hopefully that stroke can be fully utilized more during the 2nd half of the season. I don't know about y'all but I think CB4 is taking home the NOLA ALL-STAR MVP tonight... watch and see.

Check it out kapono sets guiness record.
