It didn't feel like a genuine win. It felt fake. Nate took about 15 tries on that last one and about a dozen on a previous one.

nate mixed it up though - he went through the legs twice and put it down, so i give him props. IMO, AI's behind the backboard dunk was insane, but I thought Nate dunking over spudd was as good if not better. After that, AI had similar dunks, stuff we've seen before. the only difference was, nate missed a lot more than AI.

So funny... most of the players didn't realize AI lost when the results were up... they were like '9+9 is..uh... 18... +0 is 29, uh no...'

No rig!! No penalty for missed dunks and he put it between his legs twice on the pass. Thats nuts!! Iggys dunk was too easy in the end.

They don't count the misses. Nate should have had higher for that, but everyone was already hyped for the even harder one he was trying. When measured against each other Nate's dunk was better than Iggy's. But one of the judges was going to give Iggy one more point and changed his mind. So the crowd expected a 47 instead of a 46. If it had been a 47, it would have been another dunk off probably. Unless it's possible to tie.

yeah but according to the rules it doesnt matter. although I wouldnt be surprised if it was rigged, nate is more popular than iggy.

I think the judges must have taken into consideration Nate's size.

actually the confusion came because 1 of the judges gave AI a 10 at first then changed it to a 9.

AI's dunk after catching it behind the backboard was maybe the greateest one i've ever seen.

But Nate's jump over Spud was the most THRILLING one i've ever seen!

But even if that judge had given a 10 the total would have been 47, so dunk off again.

I didn't see one judge change his mind. Anyway, one more ten wouldn't have won it for AI

Nate great job but that was a pseudo win. they have to bring back a limit if he just completed the shorter dunk right off the bat, it wouldve been cool---way to many misses very anti-climatic

No. It would've tied it.

Fact is, in the highlight reels, you wont see the misses, and the stuff Nate did deserves the win.

1. Bounce pass 360 spin move.

2. Q bounce pass for the jam

3. Between the legs jam

4. Spud bouce pass jump over his head STANDING for the jam.

5. Jump, between the legs TWICE throw off the backboard jam.

Creativity, hops and old school props. He deserved to win. No question IMO.

my prediciton for nates last dunk is that q rich's back gives out while throwing the ball him, which cuases the ball to slam into nates leg, ruining his nba career, and then the ball careenes into the bench where channing is sitting and beams him in the eyes, blinding him for life.

I almost couldn't read the rest of the thread after this!!!!

THis is ROFLMAO funny!!!!!
