@stephenasmith Stephen A cooking today. I wouldn't place the blame solely on LeBron, but he's culpable. I can't imagine the dunk contest without MJ & 'Nique, Vince vs McGrady & Stevie Franchise, etc. That's what help made AS wknd special. It's like watch HR derby w/o top HR hitters.

@stephenasmith I think you missed the biggest reason he refused it - ego. He came into the league thinking he was already too big-time for the dunk contest.

@stephenasmith Bro 😂 Smith never cease amusing me 🤔 participation at slum dunk contest is at players discretion so LeBron has never made that call. Next will be holding him accountable for ref's poor performance

Stephen A Smith on LeBron never doing the dunk contest: “The one thing I hold against him is His unwillingness to compete in all star weekend because to me, all the stars always did it. Kobe, Vince Carter included, they all did it until he refused to enter the dunk contest. Then after other stars followed and they wouldn’t compete. — Just once! Kobe did it once! MJ did it 2/3 times!” (Via Stephen A Smith)

Gilbert Arenas says the dunk contest was ruined by Michael Jordan in 1988 “Listen, we do have a problem. I don’t want to say it’s Stephen A. Smith. I don’t want to say it’s my guy, BUT LOOK, EVERYTHING IS NOT LEBRON’S FAULT. OKAY? LeBron didn’t ruin the dunk contest 15 years ago. Okay? The dunk contest was ruined in 1988. Okay? 1988. His name was him J. The god, the goat. Because when that type of greatness entered the dunk contest, it put the dunk contest standard at a all high level because he was in Chicago and he was already a scoring champ, three time All-Star, three time All NBA runner up to the MVP. End up winning the MVP that year. All-Star MVP that year, dunk champ. I think he entered the three point contest that year. He did everything. That was the year he swept. So, that was the type of guy who was in the dunk contest with Dominique Wilkins. And so, we haven’t had those people since” (Via Gilbert Arenas)
