I've been thinking this, too.

I'd imagine he'd have to have some kind of spin to the move to give his legs time to swing up and get horizontal, a bit like a roundhouse kick or something, and his body wouldn't get this high so his arm would be upright a lot more. Could look sick, like a warped horizontal 360ish kinda move.

Front flip, triple axel from the three-point line or fail.

for real though, may actually watch the dunk contest because of AG. Good luck man!

It would be like a high jump I'm thinking... I wouldn't even be upset to see him perform an actual high-jump type of dunk and land on a padded mat or something. It would be cool if he could correct his position by hanging on the rim though.... just don't hurt yourself AG.

Big men rarely fare well in these contests, but I'm a bit concerned about DeAndre Jordan. Has a lot of hang time and can dunk with authority. Probably best in-game dunker in the NBA.

More worried about Jones.

It's AG's to lose. He is clearly the best dunker of the group. No ZL basically locks it up for AG.

I like how the picture has this Jones guy in warm up gear. I hate how the put guys in who don't even play, there are dleague players with more nba minutes.
