    Glad I'm not the only one that's completely underwhelmed by everything. Waste of time. Only good that came out of it was the tribute

    I'm a fan of going between the legs and stuff like it was exciting seeing Kobe do it in 97, Vince with the bounce in 2000. Richardson with the off backboard between the legs dunk. But man.....it's super saturated now. Last year Irvine basically just did between the legs on every dunk. This Jones Jr. is doing the same thing. It's sick I know but idk.... can we do anything different? Between the legs off the dribble, between the legs off a bounce, between the legs off an alley oop. I'm going to be that couch warrior and say some more creativity would be nice. Aaron Gordon last year was incredible, couldn't believe he lost to Irvine.

    Edit; And this Indiana dude has literally done the same dunk 3 times in a row. One with a guy on a shoulders, another over Paul George. Then again with 2 people standing in front of Paul George. It's the same f---ing dunk....

    There have been some dud years but for the most part it's entertaining. Last years and the year previous were good. Sometimes there are duds.

    It'd be neat to have horse. I'd like to see some crazy trick shots going up. 1 versus 1 would be awesome but doubt it'll ever happen.

    A 3 on 3 would be cool, like the shooting stars event. A current star, NBA legend and a WNBA player. But honestly I love the dunk contest and always tune in to Saturday to watch it. Tonight's wasn't that great but last years was definitely incredible.

    Last year: "DUNK CONTEST BACK"

    This year: "DUNK CONTEST DEAD"

    It always ebbs and flows and sadly we had to put up with a s--- show this year. AG's been injured he should've pulled out of this contest to save face if he wasn't 100%.

    Then making up on the bench is f---ing lame. I hate the "brotherhood" bs in the NBA these days.
