Crowd was lame as hell. I wish they were into it more, but that's going to happen I guess when you only have 1 "big" name and three relatively unknown players.

i think people (see: TNT commentators especially!) are just caught up in the moment and don't want to objectively analyse the attempted dunk.
he ended up short of the rim so in my books that wasn't even a dunk. the 2nd one he did was all style and little substance. so he took the ball off the little basket and did a fairly normal dunk. big deal.
IMO he had a good night but by far his best dunks was his first one off the back of the backboard and then the one i liked most was the tip off the backboard and dunk. that was wicked.
Its also called Throwing it down. gotcha on the actual name of the contest but slaming or throwing it down the same thing.
No, you are slamming the ball through the net, r-tard.
Fuck the rules, that was too amazing to not be a dunk. Superman would never touch the rim. Great re-enactment imo.Quote:
