NBA Amateur Dunk Contest 2/12/10 Stream on NBA.com

from TFB's latest video
No idea how this guy got in over Guy but that question mark lends me to think that TFB knows something we dont (like how Werm was going to help Rudy Gay in the 2nd round that he never got to)
Still interesting that they are doing an amateur dunk contest.....and this is the first we've heard of it in a few months and we are only a week away. Looks like they are really trying to not let these guys show the NBA players up....maybe they'll make them dunk on a 9' rim or something.
Congrats to 5'10" TFB Dunker Haneef Munir for beings selected along with
3 others to the NBA Sprite Slam Dunk Contest that will be taking place
February 12, 2010, It will be streaming live on www.nba.com
Information on how to help Haneef win via text message coming soon
p.s ... We have no idea why Guy wasn't selected?

Pretty cool stuff.
I think the fact it's not an "official" part of the festivities and will only be shown via a live stream on NBA.com will keep things a safe distance from the NBA contest.
