      The problem is AG had a 50 dunk but so did both of his opponents. In case of a tiebreaker they should’ve made the judges choose the “better 50” rather than making them do more dunks because AG chose a weaker dunk that made him lose in the end. So I blame the format in which dunks are rated and how tiebreakers got handled.

    Man, you can tell these kids now are benefitting greatly from nutrition, world class weight rooms, and even coaches on a middle school and high school level are doing great things for these up and coming future nba players. Crazy how common insane verticals, bench press, and how good all around these young guys are now. Even centers and power forwards are jumping like they're 6'3" point guards. Say what you want about the nba today, but man, this is a special time we get to witness.
