    Outside of the most upper tier dunks in the regular season that are cool to watch, has the 3 replaced the dunk as the "in your face" move? Even the alley oop dunk is something that seems gimmicky as now and often leads to a transition basket at the other end. The days when the best players were the best dunkers are over. Is that because great players don't focus on it? Both KD and Lebron can throw it down, but neither of them have a repertoire of dunks. Is it no longer as marketable to be a flashy dunker? In a time when someone like Curry can woo the crowds with long range shooting, the 2 point dunk seems neutered a bit.

    Clippers, best dunking team in the league for a while. Never made it out of the 2nd round. TMac, great dunker. Never saw the 2nd round until he rode the bench in SA. Vince Carter...

    "We need a really great dunker" said no NBA coach ever.

    Nobody cares about 3 point shooting. They care about the handles that go along with the 3 point shot. I mean Eric Gordon led the league in 3s last year and nobody cares about him. Kyrie crosses a dude and puts up the 3 then everybody goes crazy on vine

    Winning the dunk contest used to be a real gold star. It's why the league got Kobe a cheap one. They would've got one for Lebron, but he chickened out.

    And Dominique won this one over MJ, tbh.

    Spurs fans hate Golden State because they're closet Lebron fans. They're closet Lebron fans because they hate Kobe.

    Worst troll job ever. I think any spur fans who were Lebron fans are no longer due to him being with the Lakers. Anyways I have always hated both en ies.

    I never disliked the Lakers. Just didn't like Kobe. I always liked Shaq.

    Even then it probably wasn't even Kobe. It was probably how much felching the Laker fan base did every time the Lakers win they would just flood other people's forums and talk . Of course during the losing years it was crickets for these gots.
