Kenny Smith is always extremely annoying during these dunk contests.

 

Can't be worse than Barkley.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Barkley is a million times better.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Brent Barry. Still can't believe he took off from the FT line like Dr. J and made the dunk.

[italstallianion]

When they showed Barry I thought he was a 3 point champion, not a dunk champion. That would surprise me more than anything that happens in this dunk competition.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I've never seen the Barry dunk but I heard good things.

 

Finally after a million attempts DeRozan lands the dunk.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Damn, nice dunk.

[italstallianion]

Brent Barry. Still can't believe he took off from the FT line like Dr. J and made the dunk.

 

Then again neither of them actually took off from the FT line.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Woulda been a lot more impressive had he made it without 20 attempts.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

You could say the same about DeRozan but then again he got some bad passes.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Then again neither of them actually took off from the FT line.

 

Right, neither did MJ.

[Palodios]

Blake Griffin did a 360 midair. I don't get why that is impressive.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Best dunk so far.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

You referring to Griffins or DeRozans?

[EXman369]

Blake will make it into the finals just for the media/fans

[WhiskeyBreath]

DeRozAN.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Blake will make it into the finals just for the media/fans

 

Yep.

[WhiskeyBreath]

That.Was.Stupid

[EXman369]

Very, if blake makes this though.. wow

[Palodios]

I think the "animal stuck in the tree" idea could have worked... but I don't think it was executed well.

[Palodios]

How the hell did BG get a 46 on that? He missed 7 times and did... what exactly?

[WhiskeyBreath]

And there you go EX.

True, but regardless of the score I think he belongs in between Ibaka and Derozan at this point.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

McGee is definitely the most creative.

[EXman369]

Barkley he held on to the rim.. i doubt he could have done that in his prime

[Palodios]

They're asking BG about creativity? What has he done? Its painful how much they're hyping him.

[italstallianion]

If he did a 360 lob on that then I think it would have been Game Over and McGee could have taken the round off. That said, Griffin is obviously getting favored by the refs. His dunks are very good, but not championship caliber.

[italstallianion]

Is this serious?

[EXman369]

Not watching the dunk competition next year, that was s*****

[WhiskeyBreath]
