The 360s were a little different lavine caught the ball in front of him and did an actual 360 to dunk the ball, Gordon caught it on his side after turning 90 degrees before he jumped so he technically only did a 270. Look back and you’ll see what I’m talking about
Jayden Broussard similar yes but I explained to you the differences lavines was an actual 360 and he caught it from a bounce which puts extra weight on the ball when he does a 360. It definitely deserved a 50. He just happened to do that dunk right after Gordon did a 360 off a mascot spinning on a hoverboard
They shouldn't be all 50 dunks. LaVine teammates were all at the front making noise every dunk he made. The spinning mascot had the most creativity. LaVine had none in the last 3 dunks. Yeah, they were all free throw line dunks, but so monotonous.
Perfect scenes and characters.. from the judges, to the anchors and players... and the audience... Man, this is hard to beat dunk contest.. that kid's expression after Gordon's dunk, Steve Nash's football assist, Magic's mascot, Shaq's and Mutombo's made faces.. Demar handshaking Zach after a dunk, Draymond's reaction, TMac's towel throwing, Kenny's reactions, Curry's ball toss after the contest... Truly unforgettable experience even if I just watched it on TV and RUclips..
NBA hairtie You gotta learn to set your expectations low. That’s what I did; I didn’t expect much from this year and I was actually pretty satisfied with the contests this year.
Danny Ocean from Oceans movie recruited Zach Lavine to join his team of thieves. 😂😂😂 Along with the referee who didn't call Pass Interference in the 2019 NFC Championship Game
If I was one of the judges in this comp, I reckon I would of gone home half way through the competition . This is one of the best dunk contest , And is / was the hardest dunk contest to pick a winner . All the best to them both . 👊🏽🇵🇭
2016: "The Great Robbery of Aaron Gordon" Zach LeVine dunks were so overrated, just cuz his distance. Gordon's under the legs hoverboard dunk should've won it alone!!!
I think the problem was that they gave Aaron a 47 for the double pump and Lavine's version of the spinning hoverboard a 50. Other than that, every score was right.
@@mylinhdong1555 No. 1-Aaron's under the legs was the best dunk ever. Period. Harder tha Lavine's. 2- Zach shouldnt have had so many chances. After Gordons under the legs he should been given a 49. He never really topped that. Also, when he did the hoverboard dunk, but without the hoverboard, he should have lost immediately. No reasoning to your point
The cubs win the world series, the best slam dunk contest of all time,and Cavs comeback from 3-1 against the warriors,and I was in jail watching all this on the county tv ...lmao 😂😂 I'll never forget 😭
Watch Harden and them reaction to AG and Lavine’s dunk before the dunk off 😂 the was all riding Lavine cuz Gordon dunk really should’ve had everybody go nuts
Makavelix Kam Bro I thought I was the only one to notice! They all was hating on AGs Dunks which were better and more Creative than Lavine’s 🤦🏽♂️😂 he pulled off one of the greatest dunks of all time and I ain’t see a NBA Player hype him up smh 🤦🏽♂️
You can see the pain on Gordon's eyes. He should have won this one. Lavine was clearly copying idea, changing it a little bit and was just jumping from free throw line. I mean jumping from that distance is impressive but he did it thrice, unlike Gordon who's got different dunks everytime. The difference of the creativity is very obvious.
Fr Lavine was overrated in this contest. Any other contest his dunks are all 50s imo but in this contest it was clear he just kept copying what AG was doing, you should get 9s from some of the judges for doing that.
Anybody else watching this after 2019 All Star Dunk Contest 2020 All Star Dunk Contest 2021 All Star Dunk Contest 2022 All Star Dunk Contest ... 3000 SuperDuper Star SpaceDunk Contest
+@E. I No, he doesn't because Kenny adds hype to the mood. Also, no you don't see me in every basketball video "smart assing and bitching" because this is RUclips and I'm sure other people have the same username as me. Plus when I do comment on basketball videos, my statements make sense lmao 😂
Aaron Gordon won the NBA Championship with the Dunk under both legs. He was destined to win a title after this drunk contest. Glad he got one with Denver. 🏆
Am I the only one who thought even the players on the baseline were going for Zack? Every dunk Aaron did they were subdued but when Zack finished his dunks they were so excited? I might be wrong though
veshawn2000 Demar & Kyle Lowry weren’t, John Wall, AD, Bismarck play for Toronto as well Curry. Outside of Wiggins and KAT everyone else played for different teams
Anybody else watching this in 2019 because the dunk contest sucked and this was the last good one?
Chest Rockwell lol I did, but Kevin Hart is so fucking annoying in this
Gus tf Kevin Hart funny as hell
Chest Rockwell yes it did
Chest Rockwell I was just about to comment this you beat me to it
Chest Rockwell absolutely that’s why I’m here
Who’s here because of the wack slam dunk contest of 2019? 😂🙌🏼
2020: gordon got robbed = trash
2021: also trash.
2022: loading..
Nah Diallos shaq dunk was badass
It will be a long time before this contest will be topped
@@thundergaming5669 That was nasty but that was the only great dunk of the night
Kenny was really saying that this 2019 dunk contest could top this one 💀
Yo I am fo sure
Who’s here to redeem their eyes after the 2021 Dunk Contest.
This contest should have retired the dunk contest forever. Nothing will ever be as good as this.
Yuup
We here dawg! Also you can tell from the analysis commentary they wanted Zach to win
@@producedbykhireyakeem4340 Really, I thought they were pulling for Aaron at some point.
This years dunk contest just copied what zach lavine did so boring
Yall know why ALL of y'all are back watching this dunk contest......
be honest this was the best dunk contest ever and it was a shame i would give both of them a trophy
Bruh its a yearly tradition for me at this point
Sim ? Lol
I’m back to see him get robbed for the first time, after Wade just robbed him the second time🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Yes
The greatest dunk in history 19:51
Lazy. le facts
Look up 2018 dunk contest and you’ll change your mind with 2 of Gordon’s dunks
L- SERIES which ones in the 2018 dunk contest top this one
Thanks man i appreciate that
@ヨロッ what about him
Who’s here after Gordon got robbed again
Yuuuup exactly why I'm here. Also stole your comment sorry 😂
Same 😪
Gordon, what a pity😢
Yep
RoddyRich i am
People just don't understand the hang time it took for Gordon's dunk. Use your imagination people than tell me his last dunk wasn't a 50.
Idk if there's anyone else in the NBA who could do that
It was impressive, but my dude, this nigga Zach lavine did a between the legs from damner the free throw line 👀. TF game over lol 🤣
+@Joseph Leigh-monsall thank you, preach and hold this huge W
Joseph Leigh-monsall and jordan should never got a 50 he didn’t even jump from the free throw line
@Joseph Leigh-monsall BETWWEN THE LEGS FROM FREE THROW it’s a 50 dude
Shaq is the MVP judge. He made all the right calls
Harrison Wills Why?
Giving lavine a 9 for that was actually right
The real reason why Shaq penalized people was that he wants them to get right on the first try, which actually makes a lot of sense.
Absolutely
No. He didn't.
I got robbed.
haha yeah we all know
You Did not
Yes, he did.
Rene Profit McLean right
@@TheJustinbeiberfan34 guessing yall didnt see him do the dunk i did after i did the dunk but way better and still get a 50 just like i did
2020 should be Lavine, Gordon, Zion, and Donovan Mitchell. That’d be the greatest one of all time
The Schmidt Anderson will they all be all stars though
The Schmidt Anderson not zion
Fuck Mitchell add McGee
Caruso, Lavine, Gordon and De'Aaron Fox or Donovan Mitchell or Zion Williamson
Hopefully your right.
Aaron Gordon should’ve won but the judges gave Zach lavine a 50 for the same dunk he did from aaron Gordon
The 360s were a little different lavine caught the ball in front of him and did an actual 360 to dunk the ball, Gordon caught it on his side after turning 90 degrees before he jumped so he technically only did a 270. Look back and you’ll see what I’m talking about
The point is that they ewere very similar and the judges should have never gave him a 50
Jayden Broussard similar yes but I explained to you the differences lavines was an actual 360 and he caught it from a bounce which puts extra weight on the ball when he does a 360. It definitely deserved a 50. He just happened to do that dunk right after Gordon did a 360 off a mascot spinning on a hoverboard
Same concept but Lavine's arguably could've been more difficult as he had to go get it.
@@jaydenbroussard7897 The point is gordon need a mascot to do his dunk while lavine didnt need that
Lavine did pretty much the same thing 3 times in a row... AG should of won
ya but they were all 50 dunks
They shouldn't be all 50 dunks. LaVine teammates were all at the front making noise every dunk he made. The spinning mascot had the most creativity. LaVine had none in the last 3 dunks. Yeah, they were all free throw line dunks, but so monotonous.
Through the legs with his heels on the FT line shut up dumbass up
@@studythegame9203 me but what is the point of making the same dunk over and over
@@giannandreacavallari3599 its better if u dont use props
Aaron Gordon dunks still give me chills to this day. He got robbed !

This had to be the best dunk contest ever
Agree
2019 was wayyyyy better tho
No.way
I_Forgot YT fuck no
Toronto crowd vs charlotte... not even comparable
TRUE
Lol
as the spanish dude was mumbling I began to question my sanity, Have I gone insane. Nay verily there was a spanish dude mumbling LOL
matthew aguirre I thought the NSA was spying on me...I’m smoking some really strong bud so I nearly shit myself lol
Thought it was only me lmao
Probably just a Spanish announcer that was doing a coverage for their country lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you. I was looking for this comment!
Even Barton's first dunk can be the best dunk in 2019 ....
Thats what i thought
Diallo over shaq?! DSJ over J. Cole?!
Keep it real your here because of 2019 dunk contest
17:35 - Shaq lettin' these fools know what a "10" is. All the judges aside from him hand out 10's like they're candy.
cingratta magic is respectable
Ong
Shaq and the fools?
Ok I’ll leave now
Kobe got a 10 for a simple between the legs while Zack caught a oop from the free throw line that clearly is a 10
ummm all i know is zachs’s free throw line alley oop is definitely a 50...
Feel bad for Will. That 2nd dunk woulda looked pretty nasty
still one of the greatest dunk contest of all time
by far the best one.
KAT and Wiggins exaggerated just to make judges give LaVine a 50 lol
Wiggins was doing that the whole contest lol he didnt react to anything Aaron Gordon did but he was riding Zach Lavine 😂😂💀
@@wadetheflash03 they're teammates thats why
lol..that makes no sense..
Nah judges were getting tired of the ties so they just cheated aaron Gordon they should of ended it on a tie
Who else here because of this years dunk contest😞
When you realize the skills challenge was the most interesting event this year (2019)
I dont know,i was pretty invested into that 3pt contest,i would have never thought it would be joe harris,props to him.
Ya 3pt contest wasn't bad but not like how Klay vs curry was that one year
NBA hairtie You gotta learn to set your expectations low. That’s what I did; I didn’t expect much from this year and I was actually pretty satisfied with the contests this year.
It was just waaay too many miss dunks this year that killed it for me that jump over Vince Carter was nice tho
I had to watch this to cleanse myself from this years contest
Lol !!
EL3Saint ayooooo😂😂
I love how they went from hopping on lavine to realising Gordon be a threat
I keep watching this and hoping for a different outcome and it never happens
T- Mac , Mutumbo, Gervin all haters 😂
easy kc it was all Shaq man.
I've seen Heat, The Town, Dark Night, Baby Driver. . . But there was no greater greater heist than Zach Lavine stealing this contest from Air Gordon.
Danny Ocean from Oceans movie recruited Zach Lavine to join his team of thieves. 😂😂😂 Along with the referee who didn't call Pass Interference in the 2019 NFC Championship Game

this was honestly the best dunk contest of all time
i just said that to myself
2016: "The Great Robbery of Aaron Gordon"
Zach LeVine dunks were so overrated, just cuz his distance.
Gordon's under the legs hoverboard dunk should've won it alone!!!
I think the problem was that they gave Aaron a 47 for the double pump and Lavine's version of the spinning hoverboard a 50. Other than that, every score was right.
Zack did from the line behind the legs.But Aaron only did east bay under the legs jumped right next to the paint.Zack also did harder then aaron
@@mylinhdong1555 No.
1-Aaron's under the legs was the best dunk ever. Period. Harder tha Lavine's.
2- Zach shouldnt have had so many chances. After Gordons under the legs he should been given a 49. He never really topped that. Also, when he did the hoverboard dunk, but without the hoverboard, he should have lost immediately.
No reasoning to your point
When I saw Gordon’s dunk, I was like VC15 move out the way
xXNYBeAsT360Xx haters gonna hate
When Gordon Walked in I was like maaaan this is gonna suuuck..... I was wrong
Look how far Gordon's head is above the rim when he jumps over the mascot the first time
Damn seeing this again 5+ years later makes the judging even more disappointing cause AG won for sure
Anybody else watching this in 2021 to remind themselves of what a good dunk contest looks like?
Yup but 2021 contest sucks
This will go down as the best battle of the dunk contest
Every year I just keep coming back to this...
Man everything about this dunk contest was legendary even the arena, the fans, & the especially commentary 😂😂
Anyone else here after the 2019 dunk contest
That 2019 wasn’t that bad tho
This year’s one sucks so im coming back to this one
who's here after Aaron Gordon got robbed again this year (2020)
Yuuuup that's why I'm here
Same
It makes me mad cause Gordon got mad dunks, he should have won
I don’t like how all the stars go crazy for lavine’s dunk and just stared and watched Gordon. Clearly u can see how biased they were
They're sycophant
Ye but not the crowds
U can compare the crowds AG got after his dunks was way more hyped
Crowds can't lie
Sometimes you just wake up and want to watch the best dunk.contest of all time
16:16 mark of video LoL, Kevin Hart "Spike Lee is dressed like Aretha Franklin".
man i've watched this vid like 8 times and never heard that, hilarious lmao
🤣
it’s 2020 and this is still the best dunk contest of all thine!!!!
Aaron got robbed bruh, Zach went between the legs so many times to where it wasn’t even cool anymore
Happened again smh
In the free throw line tho
We MUST have the rematch in 2019
They put Hamidou Diallo and John Collins instead...
They talkin about it for next year
@@themasterofvideos I hope so...
I never got tired of watching this
This is the GREATEST DUNK CONTEST in NBA HISTORY. The 2000 Dunk Contest with Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, and Steve Francis comes in at second.
Now it's 3rd because of the 2020 Dunk Contest.

I don't care what they say about Shaq but he elevated both of their game that night
Presentation ,Creativity, timing , Nasty power : GORDON clearly the winner!!!!!
At least - co - winners!!!!
FACTS
nope.
Idk ... I watched this for the first time today, more than two years later in 2018 - and I am highly frustrated. wtf ... Gordon deserved this one! :(
I know Zion Williamson winning the dunk contest in 2020 NBA
Duggy Fresh faccctssss
Yes sir
Big facts
Duggy Fresh well he is saying now he thinks he doesn’t want to do it in 2020
you still think?

Aaron Gordon , the best slam dunk contest winner to never win , who was robbed twice now... #2016 #2020 damn guys show this man some love
Nice to hear the commentators giving this to lavine and slowly changing their minds throughout the contest.
I wish gordon brung some baller-friends of him to that bench too
Hüseyin Keleş Facts They was Hating!
if shaq is one of the judges of 2019 slamdunk contest,we will see a lot of 6's and 7's,even 5's
I said it two years ago and I’ll say it now ROBBED
He had like the greatest dunk in the modern day contests but Zach lavine had better dunks overall
Anyone here after the horrid 2021 Dunk Contest
When Kenny say let’s go home you know who won 😂😂
@Einar Ingvarion He's SUPPOSED to repeat it. The fuck, is this new to you? 😂

The BEST dunk contest ever. There should be 2 winners.
Who watching this after AG got robbed again?
the best slam dunk contest ever!
Aaron Gordon should’ve won, I’m still holding my grudges. Lol
The best slamdunk contest i've ever seen.
Zach Lavine got that sick body movement which sells his dunks. If those dunks were done by Drummond no one would be impressed.
Aaron Gordon won the NBA Championship with the Dunk under both legs. He was destined to win a title after this drunk contest. Glad he got one with Denver. 🏆
Greatest dunk Ever by AG
Who's here after 2021 dunk contest
2019's lame ass dunk contest got me back here again. This one was one of the best of all time.
Times were simpler back then. 2016 was a great year all around
Aaron won
It was tie.
It’s a tradition to always come back and see this contest
I'm here cause 2019 dunk contest was wack
I’m watching this in 2021 and still beyond entertained.
For me aaron won
This was the BEST DUNK CONTEST! EVER!! PERIOD!!!
Am I the only one who thought even the players on the baseline were going for Zack? Every dunk Aaron did they were subdued but when Zack finished his dunks they were so excited? I might be wrong though
You are
They were his teammates so of course they're gonna gas him up
veshawn2000 Demar & Kyle Lowry weren’t, John Wall, AD, Bismarck play for Toronto as well Curry. Outside of Wiggins and KAT everyone else played for different teams
BEST ever seen
Best head 2 head comp ever
2020 Saturday We’ll See if We Get A Repeat 🔥🔥🔥 but by far the best dunk contest
Best dunk contest ever
