Futility: A 2013 Slam Dunk Contest Supercut
It's no secret the NBA's Slam Dunk Contest has sucked for years. With a lack of actual All-Stars competing in what is supposedly part of the league's All-Star Weekend, only spectacular performances from the NBA's lesser-known players could save it from being a complete disaster. No such performances were to be found.
While the dunks that did find the basket weren't terrible, far more attempts were aborted or failed entirely. Here are all of those attempts. [TNT]
Update: The Tallahassee Democrat's Corey Clark notes that since there were 36 missed dunks and only 15 successful ones the competitors managed to shoot less than 30 percent from the field in a slam dunk contest.
