  • @gmatsue84
    @gmatsue84 Před 8 lety +133

    2:06 That's a straight (and bad) copy of the previous dunk, why the fuck is that a 50?

    • @jerijobrosales
      @jerijobrosales Před 8 lety +3

      Yeah if it weren't a 50 gordon would have won. SMH poor judges

    • @lshave
      @lshave Před 8 lety +26

      Because they don't compare dunks to others, if you saw lavines dunk first without seeing Gordon's previous one than u would probably agree it's a 50

    • @MagentaVibes
      @MagentaVibes Před 8 lety +5

      If both the gordon dunk and the lavine copy dunk are the same rating than that just proves how broken the rating system is

    • @gmatsue84
      @gmatsue84 Před 8 lety +3

      Slys Gaming So if Gordon got a 50 in the first dunk, and repeated it over and over again, he should get 50s in all of them? Then what's the point?

    • @logbot9092
      @logbot9092 Před 8 lety +9

      +Mike Hawk You can't repeat a dunk that you yourself have done before, but it's not like they make up these dunks in the spot. So if two people have the same dunk the judges don't count off points for it
