An ESPN columnist agreed (with me, clearly) that the dunk contest was garbage, but it feels like he didn't quite give an honestly critical opinion, opting for a more PC approach. Maybe he has a job covering the contest next year, or a Sprite-supplied promotional laptop bag. Anyway...
Bonus note: The article comments on Courtney Sims, a former U of M hoopster and current D-League player (the NBA's JV squad), who never ever improved in 4 years of college. After complimenting Sims' shooting touch, the writer quips, "On the other hand, he's a bit awkward, runs funny and isn't terribly physical." Ah yes, that's the Courtney Sims we know. And isn't that the reason he's in the D-League in the first place?
