Slam Dunk Competition

Discussion for professional sporting events/teams and players.

This would be a great place to discuss the Super Bowl, the NBA Playoffs or whatever else.

Slam Dunk Competition

Post by SpiffCoug »

This might be the first time in years, I've actually watched this. And it's all because of Blake Griffin.


BYU PER W/L Since 1972: 432-76 (.850)
(8.4xYDS)+(330xTD)+(100xCOM)-(200xINT)

The best dunk was the one where the guy dunked the 2 balls in two baskets. Had the pass from the car been better, Griffin's last dunk could have been epic.

I think they need to get rid of the time limit. You get two dunk attempts. When guys miss five or six times before finally making it, it's kind of anti-climatic.

Its a double-edged sword. If you give them only a single attempt, players will be less willing to try outrageous dunks. I just watch the highlights on Sportscenter and I don't have to watch all the missed attempts 8)


I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

I thought it was lame. I agree with derozan, the competition should get rid of props, then I'd like it a lot more.

Gotta love that Kia is now doing a commercial with the Griffin slam dunk.
