Stephen A. Smith of ESPN believes that Los Angeles Lakers veteran forward LeBron James is directly responsible for ruining the slam dunk contest.
Smith asserted that LeBron James’ refusal to participate was the beginning and the catalyst for the decline of the slam dunk contest, adding that there is no one who can dispute that.
“LeBron James is directly responsible for ruining the slam dunk contest… LeBron James refusing to participate… was the beginning and the spark plug of its demise. Period! There is no one who can dispute that,” Smith said.
