Put Simmons in. It'll do good for his confidence even if he gets eliminated immediately
Why even respond?Quote:

Like I said earlier - last year he would have kept dunking. They would have had to call security to get him to give up the ball.
This year they would have to combine the dunk contest, and the 3P contest. Because Simmons would take it almost to the rim, and then kick it out to a 3P shooter.
People still watch the dunk contest? I wait for the reaction and watch clips of the best ones, nothing else.
There was a rumor floating around sometime in the early 90's that Sean Elliott was gonna participate but backed out when the NBA informed him he would not be able to attempt his dunk with his pet snake wrapped around him.

I remember this story. It's when he owned Elliott's Nest in San Antonio. The NBA said no because props weren't allowed even though chairs had been used in the mid eighties. And now? :lolQuote:

You obviously missed last season's contest. Gordon gave the best performance ever in the history of the dunk contest and LOST because Shaq and Tmac(judges) still hold a grudge against Orlando)Quote:

Meanwhile, source tells me #NBAhttps://abs.twimg.com/hashflags/NBAL...Logo_Emoji.png plans to invite Jonathon Simmons to participate in the Slam Dunk contest #Spurs
He's going to embarass himself. I hope he doesnt ask Kawhi for help. What can a leaper like him actually do? FT line dunk?Quote:

Would be pretty funny seeing a Spurs player in the dunk contest, tbh:lol
Should be a no-brainer for Simmons..more recognition in a contract year..
He could re-attach his Jason Terry wings Pop clipped from him after like, 2 summer league games.
Who will be Simmons entourage?Quote:

He could bring Kyle and use that giant head as a prop, tbh:lolQuote:
