Hell yeah, this shows that huge stars don’t have to be apart of it but semi stars can make it just as good. Would still like to see some stars back in the contest though
Yeah, this. People seem to refuse to accept that this was the GOAT of dunk contests. MJ & Nique' was huge because they were stars of their generations, and VC was amazing because he was so innovative, but these dunks took what they did and added style on it to make it fresh.
Foreal if these two players were like Lebron and Curry, it would be easily the greatest contest of all time but time will make people realize this contest is truly GOAT.
Aaron Gordon had the better dunks in my opinion, especially the mascot ones. But to anyone saying Zach's dunks weren't impressive; I want you to go to a regulation baskbetball court and stand at the free throw line. Then imagine dunking from there while doing a windmill/through the legs.
+Read My Comment One shoe in from the free throw line on a regulation NBA court is still ridiculous. I dont think people realize how far that actually is because they're used to playground courts or smaller school gyms.
Here after Mac McClung's performance. All his dunks were up here with these as some of the best I've seen. But the AG dunk sitting over the mascot is still the best single NBA Dunk Contest dunk of all time. Insane, gives me chills watching it
It was an amazing dunk contest and I really think Gordon was robbed there’s no way his last dunk was anything less than a 50 that dunk was so difficult
@@rdubb6592 I remember watching it it was tough to decide, the thing that may have led the judges to give 9s is probably because he attemped another dunk and missed it
@@elguaje8874 yea I didn’t like that either but he did do it slightly different cause he threw it to himself but it was the exact same dunk but I can understand them giving him a 50 and I’m glad they did because them overtime rounds was something special
If Lavine's re do of AG spinning mascot dunk is a 50. This is a 52. The creativity (never been done in a dunk contest) fluidity and power. Very underrated. Ask Pro Dunkers. They tell you. Doing 2 dunk motions in 1 dunk is hard.
+Forblaze Aaron deserved to win this thing. There was no tie here. :) I'm talking about his variety of dunks. That was phenomenal to watch. Zach is great, but in this competition, he should have lost...plain and simple.
I disagree because there’s probably a bunch of nba players like 5 or 7 that can do that but come on double handed windmill at the free throw like come on no one else can do that but him
@@CJAWorld that’s actually false. If you search it up on what’s the most difficult a professional dunker explains why gordon’s dunk while difficult is a lot easier than people think. It’s because you can propel yourself off the ball from the person so no it’s not easier. Between the legs from free throw… gordon could not do that lavine has half a foot on him for his vertical
perfect all star game, perfect dunk contest, kobe's last hurrah, lebron's comeback against the greatest team in history. 2016 was actually a perfect season
+Midnightblew23 I don't know man. I think Iggy got robbed more than Gordon. I agree that Gordon was robbed, but Iggy was robbed even more back in 2006.
this dude not only jumped over a mascot but he put the ball under his legs in a sitting position while in flight how tf he didn't win?? Popularity votes I say!!!
Dunk contest for the ages! Great dunks by both of em but Aaron Gordon should have won that in my opinion. Jumping over a mascot and sitting on the ball in the air? Smh N.A.S.T.Y.
agreed. more creative and more entertaining. lavine has monster range but at the end of the day jumping over a mascot while sitting in mid air then bringin the ball underneath you while doing it then dunking it... uhhh ya im done.
@@lMagicKaito nah.... it is not for one dunk u win. Gordon slip once. If only 1 judge so u can say that but its 3 judge. However it is best dunk duel ever Entertaining 👍
Maybe if they were superstars but the fact that they both suck in game or are mediocre at best takes that away a bit , Jordan vs Wilkins still the best simply because they were superstars
+About36GREEKS theyre both super young and dont suck at all sure theyre no superstars sure but it doesnt seem like superstars participate in dunk contests anymore so you cant say this wasnt great simply because of the people in it

Gordon is not doing the contest next year I believe. Shame he was robbed. He had some GREAT creativity, power, and cleaness in his dunks. Lavine also did great, but most of his dunks were very similar each time and he did not even dunk from the free throw line. Either way one of the best dunk contests ever
You really think the 1-2 inches Lavine was inside the free throw line actually make it worse than an actually free throw line dunk? Especially since he went between the legs too.
+~TheBigboyOfDestiny~ Michael Jordan's free throw line dunk was still harder. Michael dribbled the ball the entire length of the court. Shit he even stuck his tongue out too. Do you know how hard it is to do both at the same time? All it takes is one slip and that tongue would've been bitten off.
+Mike Hawk You can't repeat a dunk that you yourself have done before, but it's not like they make up these dunks in the spot. So if two people have the same dunk the judges don't count off points for it
Zach had the better last dunk however aaron gordon has the better dunks overall, should have been judge like boxing scoring all the dunks together, not just one dunk at a time
Jordan's dunks don't even compare to what these two did or Vince Carter. if some nobody did Jordan's dunks you would never hear anything about it again.

I remember the buzz before. Even as a european i had food and drinks ready for that Allstar saturday. Which i normaly dont.

2:06 That's a straight (and bad) copy of the previous dunk, why the fuck is that a 50?
Yeah if it weren't a 50 gordon would have won. SMH poor judges
Because they don't compare dunks to others, if you saw lavines dunk first without seeing Gordon's previous one than u would probably agree it's a 50
If both the gordon dunk and the lavine copy dunk are the same rating than that just proves how broken the rating system is

Sincerely, Everyone who loves NBA
2023 who else is here 🔥🔥🔥🔥 best slam dunk ever
when kenny says: lets go home, im 90% sure the other guy won
Gordon won that thang. Both did great. Best dunking contest since 1988.
this video proves that there can be 2 slam dunk champions
I’m here after the 2024 Dunk Contest. Aaron Gordon will possibly forever have the best dunk(him sitting in the air over the mascot) ever
Completely cleared em and still was able to slam it
2 of the best dunk contest performances ever, not saying they're better but definitely up there with J-Rich, Vince, Jordan, and Dominique
Jay Jones boi please this blows those simplistic dunks out the water
Not to mention Cedric Ceballos
I would add Nate Robinson.
Jordan's dunks don't even compare to what these two did or Vince Carter. if some nobody did Jordan's dunks you would never hear anything about it again.
