    The winning dunk was a layup

    Obi's last dunk was pretty sick. That shoulda been a 50. Few people or players could pull that off. Between the legs touch the backboard...

    All this noise about a dunk contest? Lol.

    FWIW, Jalen’s dunks were better than anything that happened in the Final round.

    New rules for next year. Let's have an "old mans" dunk contest. Nobody under 30 can apply. Seriously LeBron at his age would have taken this crew to school with 9s and 10th easily without ever having to do a gimmick.

    Steve Francis wore it so much better.

    That was so disappointing. In the worst dunk contest ever in the worst All Star weekend ever.

    New rules: contestants have to hold the ball themselves and just dunk. They have to wear their own jerseys, normal shoes. No props, alley oops, side backboard passes, no jumping over random dudes. Just dunk it.

    These guys got so caught up with gimmicks, and couldn’t even get close to actually completing it. All of their best dunks were the simplest ones.

    Sadly the regular season was somewhat uneventful.

    Let's skip forward to the lottery and draft.

    They have to change the rules and the judges.

    I told y'all we should have drafted Mobley.

    I dunno, the rising stars games were actually pretty good. The 3-pt contest was ok too.

    Of course it’s completely meaningless but in a disappointing season would’ve been nice if Jalen’s two main moments weren’t having a 22% TS% in the dunk contest after walking out wearing an NFT and getting blocked on a deep step back 3 in the Rising stars game when his team needed 1 point to win.

    Al P and Tate winning yesterday was fun though.

    The last good dunk contest Dwyane Wade ruined.

    Not saying he cursed tonight's, but he absolutely cursed tonight's, which sucked

    The rising star game was only good after the first game where Jalen Green played so well because literally no one was playing any defense until the last shot where he got blocked.
