    NBA Slam Dunk Contest Odds

    Blake Griffin -350
    DeMar DeRozan +300
    Ja Vale McGee +700
    Serge Ibaka +900


    Obviously lots of juice on Blake, I could see DeMar winning...but tough to bet again BG.


    Lines at The Greek, anyone see them anywhere else?

    Because tall guys lose dunk contests to smaller guys.

    In game dunker is different than making shit up.

    But its all biased judging so betting should be just for fun.

    It's time for 3p1c V4l3. Especially at those odds.

    People don't watch the wiz enough to realize how ridiculous he is. Same people don't realize how hard it is (due to time constraints of being in the air) of moving the ball through legs or from arm to arm with ridiculous wingspan.

    Ibaka won't win, could be any of other three Griffin at those odds is a bad bet

    Black Griffin is a beast. I don't see him losing to anybody listed above unless Lebron decides to check in.

    Dunks just aren't entertaining. Unless its passed through the legs and jammed. Make the glass shatter.

    Mcgee gets so much air he could have time to do some crazy shit in the air if he wanted to. But everyone wants blake to win so he'll probably try really hard to please everyone.

    i would agree, i def see value in the other competitors, but its just hard to bet against blake....

    i think i will most likely throw some very small money on one/two of the underdogs just for the sake of value

    Somebody other than Griffin might take this one. When I watch him in-game, I just love the way he dunks cause he does it with so much power, as opposed to anything fancy.

    slam dunk contests .......


    lebron, dwight, and other high-flying stars should be forced to compete. they are entertainers. the fans should not have to pay big bucks to see players they may not know. nba all-star weekend sucks, in my opinion. scrap it, please. thanks, in advance.

    I bet on Shannon Brown last year thinking his athletic skills made him a standout. He didn't get past the first round. I'm not willing to make the same mistake with B.G.this year. All signs point to him winning but you never know.
