Correct. From the link I posted:

quote:

So who was the culprit? It's unclear for the moment. Common and Parker both gave Gordon a score of 10 on his final dunk, and their comments to Shelburne make it hard to believe that either of them was responsible. That leaves Dwyane Wade, Chadwick Boseman and Scottie Pippen as the possible responsible parties.

Wade appears to be the obvious candidate on paper. He and Jones played together for the Heat last season, so his motive in handing the trophy to Jones appears clear.

So what would have happened if the tie had gone on as planned? The AP's Tim Reynolds reported that the NBA would have eventually shut the contest down and forced the judges to vote on a winner. Who they would have picked in that setting is unknowable at this point, but such a solution clearly would have made more sense than allowing one judge to swing the outcome as appears to have been the case in reality.

I just had a chance to actually watch all the dunks from last night. I hate to say it but Aaron Gordon has got to be the best dunker to never win a contest. He got hosed.

At the very least it could have ended in a tie. I mean it's not like the 3-point contest. Everything here is subjective. Should be no problem having co-champions.

Or they could get judges who know what they're doing and not give out 50's like candy.

Are you just as mad at LeBron for making it about him at Staples?
