He run out of tricks bro. Basically, it's amazing for us plebs but for the judges(T-Mac and Mutombo) who played and dunked a lot as well. High vertical dunks in the NBA were ordinary/standard for them. On the other hand, long jump dunks that Lavine did on his winning dunk is still special for them since Dr. J and MJ did it.
