If you actually watch the video Scottie said there was a pact to keep the 2 guys tied for at least 1 more round but when they tried to extend to that final round, they couldn't change their score. It wasn't rigged to have Gordon lose, it was rigged to keep the show going but obviously stupid Wade wanted his boy to win.

They are scoring dunks based on their personal opinion, it’s “rigged” from the start. There is no _grading formula._ You don’t have to be a “professional dunker” to choose which dunk you like more.

i dont see gordon dunk on taco a 50 either. Creativity, difficulty, Power and Impact. that dunk could have been done on earlier rounds.

Here is the fix to the NBA dunk contest: No overtime. When you are done with your dunks in the final round, if there is a tie, judges will pick the best dunk from both finalists' all final round dunks and whoever did that dunk wins.

[@LoganBluth]

Scottie deducts a point from Gordon for not FULLY clearing Tacko's 7' 6" height, but then gives Jones Jr a perfect 10 for a pretty basic windmill from TWO FEET inside the free throw line...? I mean, if Pippen automatically deducts points from a dunk for not being PERFECT then he definitely should have given Jones Jr a 9 as well, because his dunk was blatantly meant to be from BEHIND the free throw line. Sorry Scottie, but your logic is full of holes! FULL OF HOLES, I SAY!!!
