I don't get the hype for this one.

It was impressive for the precision pass placement of the ball, but what was so special about the dunk?

It's either missed dunks or lame dunks. Can't have it both ways. I'd prefer a 360 behind-the-back on the fifth try to a windmill on the first try.

Yeah, you have to weigh them differently.

But still, mildly difficult dunks that can be finished within 2 attempts but with flair are better than extremely difficult dunks that barely be done on time.

There were some great dunks more towards the end but there were also some complete FAILS.

I didn't like how Evans did the dunk then removed the sheet after he landed. There should've been a long handle on the sheet he could grab with his free hand.. that or velcro on his shorts

Would have been some serious entertainment to see the painting just as he's dunking.

Said this before and say it again, there were some great dunks in this year's contest. Don't know why so many guys are complaining!? It's a pity that White and Green were not able to deliver all the way but Ross really surprised me!

Especially if the painting was him pulling the sheet off mid-dunk!
