  I would for sure subtract points from a guy who took 3 attempts.

  No one else will do it.
  
  I know he pushed to help some but that 2nd slow mo was crazy looking

  Lavine's dunks were the best. Both of them were much better and more difficult than any of the other dunks. He should run away with it.

  Disappointed he didn't do the windmill from the free throw line (towards the end and only show it once)

  The best dunker won it tonight. And honestly, the lack of props was nice this year.

  Lavine may have just put on the best performance in contest history, only Vince and Jason Richardson are comparable.

  I found this funny

  His dunk wasn't from the free throw line. I'm not nit-picking either, dunkers won't consider that a FT line dunk. I was reading about it in a write-up about the dunk contest this week.

  Agree as I saw it too.....but I've never seen a dunk of that distance with a windmill.....it would've been decently better than his final 2 dunks.

  Haven't seen that long of a windmill either, it was a very impressive dunk. I think if he were to have attempted it, he would have been better off jumping from an angle so it might not be judged against the "free throw line" thing if that makes sense.

  James White is the only person I've ever seen be able to windmill and put it through his legs from the free throw line.

  Kyle Lowry looks terrible in this game, Carmelo barely making it up the court, and Westbrook taking over.
