      A LOT of people can do under both legs like Aaron Gordon did. And it's easier to receiving the ball after the jump than bringing the ball up by yourself. There's maybe one other person (James Flight White) who did what Lavine did at the free throw line.

      YnoRichieTV nah. I do believe Aaron had the best dunk of the night but the dunk offs were even 50s and when it came down to the last two dunks Zach had the better one

      YnoRichieTV that may be the case but it’s on a scale of 50 by the judges and just as Aaron’s dunks were 50s so were Zach’s. The last dunk they both had Zach had the better one that’s why he won.

      @@shawntillis8981 the dunks leading up to the final dunks... I couldn't give Zach more recognition over Gordon. Whether they both did 50 dunks or not. Put it this way, when they were both going back to back getting 50s...I myself didn't go as crazy for Zach's dunks over Gordons!
