2013 NBA Slam Dunk Contest (Video)
Here in Houston during the 2013 NBA All-Star festivities you can get a sense that people still look forward to the NBA’s annual Slam Dunk Contest. The vibe was one in which many people were hoping Lebron James decided to get into it, but that would not be the case as he & several other stars who are more than capable played the sidelines. The Toronto Raptors’ Terrence Ross took the crown this year, but the NBA needs to provide more of a REAL incentive for the league’s biggest stars to get involved in the long run for this event to thrive.

Common On ESPN’s First Take During NBA All-Star Weekend (Video)
I’m here in Houston, Texas for all of the NBA All-Star weekend activities & one of the primary things I didn’t want to miss was ESPN’s First Take doing a live taping on Friday morning in Houston. Needless to say, due to schedule conflicts, I didn’t make it in the building but it sure looked like fun as Common was the special guest on the show. In this special edition that aired live Common debated with Skip Bayless & Stephen A. Smith on everything from playing in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game and those annoying arguments about who would win in a game of one-on-one between LeBron James or Michael Jordan.
Update: Behind-The-Scenes Footage Added Below

It touches on his on-court stylings with the New York Knicks back in the day then moves quickly from there to his being a style King of New York. Two things you gotta experience: the bumpy butter shoes in the beginning and the descriptive wordplay near the end.
