Who you want to see in the Dunk Contest and 3 Point Shootout?

My choices for the two All-Star Weekend Competitions this year:

3-Point Shootout:

James Jones (Defend 3-point crown)

Paul George

Kevin Love

Ryan Anderson (Representing Orlando)

Richard Jefferson

Ray Allen

Dunk Contest:

Blake Griffin (Defend)

Dwight Howard (Come out of retirement in the Dunk Contest and compete for Orlando)

Andre Igudola (Deserve a second chance; Was robbed in 2006 IMO)

Jan Vesely

3pt contest

I would take out Kevin Love or Richard Jefferson from your 3pt shootout and put Anthony Morrow in. He's one of, if not the deadliest, 3pt shooter in the NBA and it's surprising he hasn't been in the contest already.

3 point shootout:James

3 point shootout:

James Jones

Ray Allen

Kobe Bryant

Paul George

Ryan Anderson

Steve Nash

Dunk Contest:

Blake Griffin

Derrick Rose

Lebron James

Russell Westbrook

This is just who I would like to see, not who I think will actually be in it. Obviously some of these people are very unlikely to partcipate in either competition.

I don't think LEbron and Rose

I don't think LEbron and Rose are suited for the dunk contest. I rather see someone like Wall.

3pt shootout:James Jones

3pt shootout:

James Jones

Paul George

DeQuan Cook

Kevin Durant

Anthony Morrow

Dunk contest:

Blake Griffin

Terrence Williams

Josh Selby (the man can do a 360 between the legs, I reckon he is good + you always need a rookie)

Jeremy Evans (superathletic)

Sure it's nice to see superstars, but I think it's even better to see the best dunkers in the league. Other possibilities include Nick Young, Will Bynum, DeMar Derozan (I believe he was the best dunker the past two years, he was robbed twice, but I doubt he wants to come back), Paul George

Please, no Richard Jefferson.

Please, no Richard Jefferson. He has no chance. Furthermore his release is so slow he would not get passed the first 3 ball racks before time expires.

Love watching Ryan Anderson shoot.

Steve Novak.... is he still in the league? Boy can shoot.

Paul George

I love the guy, but I didn't know he was widely thought of as an elite 3 pt shooter. He is shooting .550, though, so I'd love to see him. I don't think he'll stay in the NBA top 10 3 shooters.

I think he is the most likely player in the league to participate in the dunk and three-point competitions. He can throw down.

Jimmer

This isn't college, guys. Jimmer is shooting .283 from 3. He's made 15 in 14 games. Let's all come back down to earth here. He has plenty of time to make the shootout, we don't need to put him in when he hasn't earned it.
