But he will be on February 14th in Phoenix, after Fernandez was selected as the fourth participant in the Sprite Rising Stars T-Mobile Fave Five Red Lobster Wood-Grilling McDonalds Big Mac...oh wait, it's a dunk contest? Cool.
In fact, not only did he win the fan voting, he crushed the other nominees, with almost twice as many votes as Joe Alexander and Russell Westbrook combined.
Kobestopper Mike and I were debating the merits of this selection. Now, readers: have no illusions about the size of our combined man-crush on El Mago, because it is huge. Actually, disturbing might be a better descriptor. Even so, we are a little worried about Rudy's success in the competition.
The receiving end of the Spanish Connection (wow that sounded wrong) has proved that he possesses unexpected athleticism:
However, we're talking about the BEST DUNKERS IN THE LEAGUE, here. Have you seen Nate Robinson jump? I swear his vertical is greater than his height! Dwight Howard is an absolute freak of nature.
Basically, unless Rudy can convince Dwight Howard to stand in front of the rim when he dunks or gets his hands on some flubber, it may be an early exit for our favorite Spaniard.
Update: I just realized the dunk contest is on Valentine's Day which, for a man possessing Rudy's aura of pure sexuality, can only be a good sign.
