I thought he clipped his arm with his leg on the way down.

Wasn't clean. But, still awesome.

If he would have cleared him like Vince cleared Dude in the Olympics, it would have been game over.

Wish it would have been a tie.

People are saying Gordon didn't lose. But, Airplane mode didn't lose either.

Could have gone either way.

He tea bagged him

He 1000% did.
Why else place the ball on his head?
Too funny

First of all, the ball was on the back of Tacko's neck. He clips Tacko's hands a little on the way up (which Tacko was using to shield himself), then again on the way down. Tacko flinches on first contact, then big time (understandably) when Gordon was coming down.

Secondly, that's where any of these guys hold the ball for these dunks. Should they hold it under their arm, or between their knees?

Yeah, guys jump over 7'5 giants every day, didn't you know?

Maybe if he had a spring board he could have cleared him?

There is a reason he kept jumping over 5’ 10” Chance The Rapper.

Jones Jr had no problem holding the ball the entire time when he jumped over Bam.
Reason being, he knew he could jump over him.

So you think this was clean?


Or this?


BAM was way outside of the restricted area and it wasn't 100% clean but it was much cleaner than Gordon over Tacko and clearly a better dunk. Gordon did a basic ass 2 handed dunk. As for the Bucks player dunk, his 50 likely came because he put the ball on the backboard before dunking.

Also DJJ dunk over BAM was a 46. So Gordon over Tacko from not as far got a 47. Sounds about right

What's your point again?

You get that we're talking about 8" more in height, right?

Ok and your point is irrelevant.

It wasn't a 50 as I've been saying Best case it was a 48 which has been my only point so I honestly don't know why you're wasting your time speaking to me about this.

You have to jump higher to do a 2 handed dunk for one. Plus the object being jumped was 8" taller. What don't you get about degree of difficulty? Sure, Tacko was standing in a foot closer or more. DJJ doesn't clear Tacko either, and didn't even think to try.

I've said all along it should've been a tie. Thanks for agreeing with me!

1) The dunk still wasn't a 50

2) You're never going to change my mind about that dunk.
