The Super Bowl's dunzo, but no worries: The real sporting fun starts tomorrow in Dallas, site of this year's NBA All-Star Weekend and everything else that entails—rookie challenges, dunk contests, parties and bullshit, some awesomely whorish groupie get-ups...and yeah, the actual game on Sunday. Our homies at the esteemed Dime Magazine will be in Dallas to document everything (check their site over the weekend for live-blogging, exclusive pics, and more), but before the fuckery begins, we enlisted them to get our minds right for the weekend. So, on the eve of the first ASW of the new decade, Dime Mag presents its top 10 NBA All-Star Weekend moments of the 2000s...
#1: Vince Carter
WHEN: 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, Oakland
DIME SAYS: Even from our seats in the upper reaches of the Golden State Warriors' arena, the buzz throughout Vince Carter's breakout moment is still unmatched by any NBA event outside of a playoffs or Finals game. As it was happening, you knew Vince was setting the bar for how every other dunk contest would forever by judged. Vince never did an All-Star dunk contest again. He didn't have to.
