You guys don't understand.
The dunk contest is the ONLY time in the WHOLE year that a professional league allows for the street element of the game to be in full display. it is the only time a proffesional league gives a nod to it's real origin.
I don't think Jordan was honest. If a judge is being dishonest...then the competition is a farce.
BTW...I disagree that this was a bad dunk contest.
Tyrus Thomas jump over....."X" dunk was the prettiest dunk in a while.
I really don't know what these guys are looking at.
When JR Smith did the behind the back "reverse" 180 dunk last year...they poo pooed it. I had never seen that dunk ever done before.
There is a rebirth going on in this contest...
It is time to see lebron in next year's....the word is that he can do some insane things.
