Now LeBreezy says he’s only “50-50” on participating in the 2010 All-star slam dunk contest next February in Dallas.
“I’m like 50-50 right now,” he said Wednesday night before a game against Phoenix. “I don’t know if you can get it back to the 80s and like in ‘98 when Vince (Carter) was in it. It was more about the dunks and less about what was going on around the dunks. We’ll see what happens.”
I have no idea what that means, but when you’re the king, you get to say whatever you want.
So why has he changed his mind?
“I was excited,” he said. “When I said it, I was very excited about doing it. I was there at the event and you get caught up in it a little bit.”
Fair enough. Good answer, actually. You don’t hear godzillastars like LeBron admit too often they got caught up in a moment and now in the sobering light of day are thinking a tad more clearly. This kid just may be the real deal. Someone should think about paying him to endorse a product or something. (SI.com)
