Don't say that - it's
not the equivalent. The Slam Dunk "competition" has become just an exhibition because it's judged the same as figure skating, boxing, and synchronized swimming; it's all subjective. Maybe it's just my simple mind, but give me a good, easy way to judge: it's a home run, or it isn't. And if you hit 10 that aren't, you're done. That to me makes it a competition. Not like the Slam Dunk where you get to keep trying till you make it, no matter how many times it takes you.

Yep, it's still entertaining for me, because there are still players that want to be there. And of course, this time it means something!
