NBA Slam Dunk Contest

It was really good. Although, I thought Blake Griffin was either the 3rd or 4th best dunker last night.
McGee should have won hands down. I agree with Barkley that Griffin's last dunk was probably the easiest dunk to perform all night. Any of those guys could have done that dunk with ease.
McGee did two dunks that I would have NEVER believed could have been done. Dunking two balls on two different baskets that were probably 10 feet apart. And then dunking 3 basketballs in one hoop. When he said he was going to do that, my first reaction was that there was no way in the world it could be done. He should have won the thing hands down.

Hey Panda! We don't take kindly to your kind here!
Mcgee's dunks were pretty awesome. Also Derozans Alley-oop bounce pass to himself was pretty nasty
McGee's dunks were way more impressive. Hope the slam dunk contest goes on with good guys like this. I was having a blast watching it last night.
I agree with you guys that McGee should have won. But still, that was a very entertaining event that the NBA put on last night. I love the WWE type aspect of it. The dunk contest really is more about entertainment than the sport anyway. Why not jazz it up a bit? I look forward to this event every year and had a great time watching it last night.
Don't you think it was a little too convenient that Griffin jumped over "the official car of the NBA" and won it with clearly the easiest dunk of the night? Seems a little set up to me.
By the way, I think DeMar DeRozan had the best dunks last night.

McGee from the free throw line was sick. Yes it has been done, but not by a 7 footer and not that deep. And his two hoop dunk, was just insane.
Only thing i dont like about the contest is that they get 2 mins to make it. One dude had like 8 attempts... not much drama after everyone has seen it attempted 8 times before you make it.

Okay they made a big deal about Ibaka jumping further than Jordan so I watched the video that they linked.
Judge for yourself but I think Jordan was still a little behind the line and Ibaka is clearly on the line:

I still think the majority of guys in the NBA could do Griffin's last dunk.
Bringing out the car and the choir got him points... not the dunk. And no, you don't need a vertical the height of the car's hood, because your knees are bent 90 degrees. Like I said, a LOT of guys in the NBA could do that dunk.
I don't think many guys could dunk 3 basketballs though.
