The dunk contest that resulted in this year's snoozefest. Clear biased judge that gave the wrong guy the win. This is why the stars no longer want to take part. Kenny brings up a good point early on here. "There is a similarity in the dunks", which is correct. Jones won this primarily doing the same base dunk, just adding small variations to it. 5:10 best dunk in this contest, easily beating any of Jones' yet it scored the same.

[@talhirsh1371]

The reason Gordon loss was because he tried to dunk over Tacko fall and it failed

[@one0onelion248]

@Tal Hirsh Stop it, it didn't fail. AG clearly dunked over him but Tako kept being scared and for whatever reason bent down, watch it again, he he bends down after the dunk was complete. That dunk was better than Jones dunk. Jones was the least creative dunker I've ever seen. He took the between the legs dunk, did 5 different variations of it. The judges had decided to either give the title to AG or make it a tie so they all decided on a tie but then Wade completely botched it on purpose to give it to Jones. This is why the dunk contest is officially ruined, that basic corruption by Wade has now made all the top dunkers avoid the contest now.

[@one0onelion248]

The man literally took the between the legs dunk and kept doing different variations of it. It's the least creative thing I've ever seen.

Candice & Pippen's reaction to Gordon's 2nd attempt dunk was funny af 🤣

[@tomjones6172]

You can clearly see taco put his hands up after Aaron grabbed the ball, that’s the only reason Aaron didn’t clear him perfectly if taco put his hands down he would’ve cleared fine

[@Tropicanahoward]

It’s 2022 and this still makes me mad how he got robbed

[@diegomorenolopez9786]

I’m watching this and can’t not think that Chadwick passed away just a few months after this man… RIP goat

[@JA-uz2uk]

Just stopping by seeing AG dunk highlights and still baffles me how he doesn't have TWO...not ONE, but TWO dunk championship trophies.

D Wade: "I will not be the person to mess this Dunk Contest up" *Later proceeds to mess the Dunk Contest up*

[@Bruh-yn9jz]

bro even the whole stadium disagrees to aaron gordon losing even derrick jones jr is shocked for that

[@richardmanfield3037]

“I will not be the person to mess this dunk contest up” LOLLLLLLLLL

[@wilysalta147]

Now Im happy because Gordon have 3 trophys , you are a beast Aaron !!!!

[@chief8268]

Derrick Jones Jr... 1st dunk between the legs 2nd dunk between the legs 3rd dunk between the legs 4th dunk unsatisfactory free throw line dunk

[@MrLuhbat49]

Facts he did the same dunk the entire night

[@badronne1918]

@@MrLuhbat49 if i judged , id give6 if i see repetitive between the legs with no creativity

[@AninoNiKugi]

I feel bad for Jones. Winning it in such a controversial way. He's even shown here after winning while someone saying it's a highway robbery like it's his fault 😄 I think Gordon has been very entertaining because his dunks are very unique and well executed and he should have won or at least a co-champion. Man, there were a lot of years with bad slam dunk contest, why didn't he join those where the competition isn't that good 😄

[@frankystrings]

It's about the comp... not about the win. But he's not missing anything. Tbh ... he's still goated

[@KatoMegumin]

To me,this robbery changed the mentality of Aaron Gordon,he did get his payback by winning a ring,but I can’t describe how pissed I was at the time watching this live.

[@benhurzz]

that one hand 360 off the backboard by AG is crazyyyy

[@toddzillasimon876]

You think you’d hear a louder applause from the audience when the trophy was presented eh? Nope. Even the audience knew AG was totally robbed lol 😂 even DJ Jr. knew he didn’t deserve that 🏆. Oh well. Can’t turn back time. It is what it is 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Enzo8978]

Silent crowd at the end , would've been at least audible applause if Aaron won

[@ondetcyrbja4552]

AG is the only dunk contest conpetitor that jumped over a 7 footer without touching him man great recpect to this legend

[@DGN444]

This dunk contest was way better than 2016

[@TheYagomestre]

I just watched the epic Lavine X Gordon a.k.a. best dunk contest ever. And man, there was NO robbery. The thing is: this is a competition about WHO FAILS LESS, not about who hits harder. Aaron did a not so impressive dunk in the last round, Lavine responded with a nuclear bomb: between the legs, taking off a step ahead of the free throw line. That wasn't robbed. BUT THIS ONE NEEDS AN APOLOGIZE FOR GORDON. The dunk over Tacko!????? That was insane! Way better than his opponent! That's a 50!

[@jonathanwatson1908]

2016 was a robbery. That second dunk under both legs in a sitting position, how was that not enough

[@TheYagomestre]

@@jonathanwatson1908 because Lavine answered with a dunk from the free throw line. A tomahawk dunk from the free throw line. That's why :)

[@Umz15824]

​@@TheYagomestre Lavine just copied AG by dunking from the same position with less flare. His only legit impressive dunk was the ft line windmill. AG had creative points and nailed his dunks (save for 1 miss which shouldn't even be counted against him considering what he was trying)

[@acespittah]

Ag had the best miss of all time

[@1NicOfficial]

You know you got robbed when your competitor is embarrassed to take the trophy 😂

[@leonzaclaiborne5926]

After this.....I was done watching the slam dunk contest.
