[bksballer89]

This is sick

 

[podsox]

crazy dunks. I liked gordons more

 

[podsox]

same dunk barton did

 

[mr.hockey4242]

I retract my statement.

10 rounds of Lavine vs Gordon next year. Let them start planning tomorrow

 

[podsox]

Gordon got robbed. Levine got a 50 for the act same dunk barton got a 44 for in the first rd

 

[BobGnarly]

Agree that Gordon got robbed. I don't think that guy is human

 

[bksballer89]

Gordon is the people champ

 

[Malibu]

Gordon should have won earlier but once Drummond and Barton were gone it was good that's for sure.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Smh.

Gordon put on the best show I've seen in a contest since Vince Carter and he finishes second.

 

[podsox]

dunk by dunk head to head Gordon won 4-1

 

[UK Cowboy]

My favorite part was after Levine's first dunk, Drummond has a look on his face that said "why the fuck am I here again?"

Still hyped from All Star Saturday. Not only was that the best dunk contest, it was the best night they've head from top to bottom period. Only way it would have been better is if they had Drake and Future perform instead of whatever wack ass band that was.

-Loved adding the Big Men to the Skills challenge. Don't like the pass being optional or 3 tries or whatever it was.

-LOL at Kevin Hart actually tying Draymond Green in the shooting contest and fucking up their skit

-3 point contest was so good. Was hoping Redick would have made the Finals so we'd have what I think are the 3 best shooters in the league but it was still great. Klay getting Steph this year means they gotta have a rubber match.

-Will Barton got robbed on his first dunk. Magic Johnson was either drunk or had no idea how to use his scoring system. No way is a through the legs two handed dunk a 6.

-Steve Nash's pants be too tight

-HOLY SHIT GORDON AND LAVINE. They should have quit after the 2nd tiebreaker and had co winners. That was just nuts. Gordon's degree of difficulty on his mascot dunks were out of this world and LaVine's raw athleticism yet still graceful dunks were magnificent. They tied. No winners. THEY TIED. Therefore next year's dunk contest is just Gordon vs LaVine.

If you didn't like the All Star Saturday, then you must have some serious personal problems you can't get over.

 

[bksballer89]

One thing I would suggest is that once is goes to a tiebreaker, the scoring should be done differently. Instead of judging it on a scale of 1-50, they should just select which player had the better dunk.

Lots of fun young player in the league. Thoroughly enjoyed last night's festivities.

I agree with the sentiment that Gordon won the dunk contest. That pummel horse over the mascot was sick. I wish I could jump half as high as these dudes.

 

[Logicallylethal]

That was one of the most entertaining all star saturdays in a long time!

I love how competitive and prestigious the 3 point contest has become now. It is literally the best of the best going up against each other and having Steph in there as the gold standard to beat just makes it so much better to watch.

Maybe they should have a legends 3 pt shooting bracket with guys like Steve Kerr, Ray Allen, Larry Bird, Reggie Miller, etc and winner of that bracket faces the current nba bracket.

The dunk contest was surprisingly the highlight of the night. I have to be honest I tuned out to watch NFL Network's rerun of Cards-Steelers in the Superbowl. Luckily I turned back for the best dunks of the night. Gordon was obviously robbed. Scoring system is beyond flawed. Finals round needs a different scoring system or add in some actual discussion/deliberation between the judges.
