missing 7 of 9 attempts is "killing it" dunks not even going in clean (DJ/GIII seocnd attempst) is "killing it"

look if you wanna say that there have been a half dozen better dunk contest winners then jordan im on board for that argument. but this is garbage outside of 2 dunks so far.

Also, if MJ was in the dunk contest, there would be energy in the crowd. need to expand the field and get a star or two to draw interest.

but dont tell me this is "killing it"

you want killing it and getting the crowd in it?



TBH though, Vince's dunk contest is a little glorified now...in terms of technical difficulty and creativity, his dunk contest has been left in the dust at this point.

I miss the days where if you missed your dunk, that was it. You got a score for effort. I think, at a minimum, you should get a pt deducted for each miss....miss 3 times and have a 10 dunk, get 7.

It's about excitement, and missing dunks is deflating.

Honestly, the people who whine that there's no stars in the dunk contest wouldn't be happy if there were. If a star enters it and loses to some no-name, they'll get clowned on. If they win it, then everyone screams that it was "rigged." Maybe it's time to accept that there's no saving the dunk contest and come up with something else to close Saturday with. 1-on-1? 3-on-3?
