I don’t like this final round stuff though. Why do we only get two DSJr. dunks? Might as well add a couple more dunkers and extend it.
Lame night overall
It’s always lame. It needs to be fixed.
Only good year was the GOAT Lavine/Gordon contest.

Yeah his second was arguably the best/most difficult out of all. And he should have gotten in over Nance because Nance did wack shit the first two/three rounds
But DSJ's first was wack as well with the Panther mask on. Mitchell's jump from the side over Kevin Hart and others is being heavily underrated. His technique, hang time and execution on that was all wild, and it deserved its 50 total score. And then overall Mitchell had the best dunks taking into consideration energy, technique and execution, hence he was the deserving winner.

DSJ didn’t use any props at any time though. Oladipo choked as always in these things. I don’t think he has the hops for this. Oladipo did the Panther dunk.
DSJ did a dunk that Aaron Gordon got a 47 for executes incredibly.
I was only impressed with the one Mitchell dunk that he also did in Rising Stars. His dunk over Kevin Hart was just filler. Dunking over a crouching Kevin Hart ffs

Yep.
Wasn't particularly impressed with any of Nance dunk tbh, people keep shouting it was unique doe but there's nothing impressive about what he did.
DSJ had one amazing dunk and rest was meh which is why he didn't qualify for the final, Mitchell had the best body of work by far and it's not close.
Blame the others for allowing him to make a sub par dunk to win the thing because the competition sucks.

I still stand by what I said though in the above post.

Dennis had two dunks total. First was a double clutch dunk without looking at the basket. Aaron Gordon got a 47 for the same and people complained about it not being 50. Second one was the best dunk of the night.
Body of work is also irrelevant when discussing final rounds. I'd also agree Mitchell had a better body of work than Nance, despite Nance being the one that will be rememberede from this dunk contest overall because of the story with his father. But the final two dunks from Nance should've clearly edged out Mitchell imo. Thought the second dunk from Nance was ridiculous compared to the Vince Carter imitation dunk. Refs should judge those two dunks relative to eachother, which is why I have no idea why three of the judges gave a 10 for that dunk, when Mitchell barely leapt on it. He had a horrible attempt and got no verticality in his dunk.

Re: The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread
It's just a stupid format that is very unrewarding
I think so many perfect scores kind of ruin it because if there are so many 'perfect' dunks then what's the point and what is less than perfect? Basically because of Dennis Smith Jr. getting lowballed on his first dunk, he needed to push perfect on his second dunk.
Anyways, it just caps off a stupid night of events all in all. At least we all got to see Lowry brick more 3s

Re: The Official Dwayne Wade <<<<<< you thread
Maybe they should eliminate scores and go to rankings preferably.
After everyone has made their dunks in one round, each judge could rank who had the best dunk in the round.
1 point for finishing with best.
4 points for finishing with the worst.
The lowest person wins.
Something needs to be changed overall. Doesn't make sense that multiple dunks at 50 count the same despite some being clearly superior.
Overall they need to workshop all the events and add new ones to make it more interesting. Skills challenge is too quick, and there's no action at all during the night. It's just commercials and concerts at this point really.

Nance bounce of the backboard dunk was dope af, but nothing else he did really impressed me that much. They were well executed but not that incredible

I would consider this a valid argument/complaint if the players didn't knew about the format. But.... unfortunately they do. So why did DSJ perform a subpar dunk on his first attempt???

I think you're severely underrating DSJ's first dunk. It was really good.

Agree, first dunk wasn't subpar at all. It was at least level with a lot of the stuff that was put up

I don't see how this a 39
and this is a 50
Essentially Mitchell made only windmills with minimal vertical (he must have some long ass arms). Meanwhile Dennis Smith, a smaller guy who can't palm the ball almost hit his head on the rim on a reverse double duck dunk that Oladipo failed continually.

Luckily not too many shooters tonight compared to Rising Stars game.
Gonna be some crazy highlights I reckon.
I've got Westbrook as MVP again. Him or Harden. Both are used to 100% energy (200% in Westbrook's case) on offense and no defense.

Klay looked awkward AF during his all star intro as well, he's definitely the type of guy who before becoming an NBA player was nervous AF.
BTW Kevin Hart is the most overrated comedian i have ever seen in my life tbh.

Calling Kevin Hart a comedian smh...
Nothing funny about that man.
These intros have been incredible though. So much cheese and cringe. Best of all sexy off-pitch national anthem by Fergie

Kevin Hart has never been that funny tbh.
I've seen some stuff of his that has been funny, and occasionally he can be funny, but that's few and far between. Overall he's insanely overrated.

Kemba, Oladipo, Drummond and Dragic... nobody came here for that.
Let fans decide imo
