Camera dunk may have been the worst dunk contest dunk ever, seriously lame.

However I liked his other two, and the double dunk was easily the best/most original of the night, so he deserved it.

Should have at least done a 360 with the camera to make it a little more interesting to look at.

The camera dunk was a good idea but really, really, really poorly executed. He should have just gone up and put his head at rim/above the rim height before dunking it. It would have made it really impressive had he been able to show just how high up he can get his head... the problem was he did a reverse so it defeated the entire purpose of having the camera; you couldn't tell how high he was by going reverse.

His last two dunks are really under-appreciated. The 2 ball alley-oop over Hayward jam is probably one of the hardest dunks anyone has ever done in the contest. I bet there is less than a handful of guys in the NBA who could pull that one off. It was clearly the best dunk of the night, it was miles ahead of anyone else's.

His last dunk was really, really good too. It didn't seem that great cause he was jumping over someone so short, but the distance away from the basket he jumped from while still clearing him... all without pushing off anything/anyone for extra height... it was really impressive. Again, I bet only a few guys in the NBA could have pulled that one off.

I'm really happy for him and people need to stop hating. He had the two of the best three dunks of the competition and deserved to win it.
