Probably right. But the TV commentators were skewing this... not really objective either. Both guys killed it. To me though, that taco dunk was not actually awesome.
The man is 7'5.
He's wearing a neck brace tomorrow
(don't fall for the "novelty" of Taco. He's not a KIA)
Is anybody here a marine biologist?

Re: All Star Weekend Thread
The only free throw line dunks that will ever wow me from here on in...a 360 jumping from the free throw line...and a reverse jumping from the free throw line. If you don't have that...don't attempt another free throw line dunk....

Yeah, for Jones. He was far better over the whole night and mostly completed his dunks on the 1st attempt which is worth something.

Best one I thought.

Re: All Star Weekend Thread
Gordon got all 50s except the last dunk, he should've won if they just counted the overall scores.
The Tacko Fall dunk is a 50

Re: All Star Weekend Thread
I thought the Fultz dunk was the best of the night, but Tacko one not great.

This seemed like a crazy statement to me at first, but it's 100% fact in my opinion. His catalogue of dunks is better than anyone else in history.

Re: All Star Weekend Thread
It’s like the judges wanted AG to jump over Tacko and take the ball through his legs to dunk. Wtf?? He’s 7-5!! Jones Jr dunk his foot was way past the ft line. We’ve seen many FT line dunks over the years and most are a step over but not by that much and Jones is so freaking long arms that it was pretty easy to do a windmill with such a long step over
