Home Run Derby vs. Slam Dunk Contest: Which Sport's All-Star Competition Is Better?

Derby vs. Dunk Contest

Some still dig the long ball. And some still enjoy creative slam dunks.

Both Major League Baseball and the National Basketball Association put on shows for their fans during their respective All-Star breaks. Some of the best sluggers in MLB show off their strength in the Home Run Derby, while some of the most talented (well, not anymore) basketball players show off their dunking skills.

Which one would you rather watch? Does a 400-foot home with the flick of a bat grab your attention? Or is slam dunk off the backboard more entertaining?
