I don't have social media but man I would spam Wade's IG or something. He gave Jones a 10 on the dunk and gave Gordon a 9 for the Tacko dunk. Wade orchestrated that perfectly.

Can't stand Wade.

D Wade had no business being a judge. He so rigged it for his former teammate Jones. Did anyone notice how long the delay was in giving the score? The fix was in.

Can’t believe Gordon was robbed again. I wasn’t a huge fan of his last dunk but no doubt that he had the most impressive selection of dunks throughout just like when he lost to Lavine. Feel really bad for the guy

There has to be a better way to score the dunk contest. It's tough to remove bias from contests like these.

I thought AG had the best dunks of the night, but that dunk over Tacko was weak. He landed on Tacko's head. Definitely not a 10 in my book.

Seriously though, who thought it was good idea to have wade in there when he's former teammate of a contestant. The bias was clear from the start :lol:

The league is trying to push Wade as a media personality on us. His commentary is trash, he’d be better off judging American Idol. They’ll do the same thing with Lebum when he retires.
All former player commentators should be funny or I don’t wanna hear them.

So bad. He was my favorite player of all-time until he got the NBATV gig.

Give all 4 dunkers 4 dunks. Then one final dunk for two finalists. Judge it after they are done.

I said it before and i'll say it again, when the All-Star was in Toronto the Gordon vs Lavine dunk off was nice. I stated they should just make it best out of 2 out of 3 or 3 out of 5 for the final 2 competitors.

AG got robbed again. Most creative dunker ever in the dunk contest still can't get a win.
