I remember that it was in 2003 in ATL. They had Magic on the lakers team and Nique on the Hawks team.
That's right, they did it two years in a row - it's all coming back now. Frankie Muniz and Ashton Kutcher were two of the celebrity players in 2003. The Atlanta crowd also exploded when Nique slammed home an alley-oop from Jason Terry. I'm not sure how I forgot about that before.

imo they should cut this off and make it a 6 man dunk contest......that'll give alot more variation and excitement to the contest aswell......
because they already have the skills challenge.......why have some ridiculous shooting contest.....

Nostalgia, I guess. A chance for some of the older guys to get back on the court and make some of the younger fans aware of the players of yesteryear.
