If you ask me personally why the Slam Dunk Contest was so bad: I think the "Freestyle" beginning took the mystique out of the contest and the east/west teams. NBA fans like the individual way.
Fans didn't like it so much, they created a hashtag called: "#ThingsBetterThanTheDunkContest". And some of them were so funny and created, I decided, WHAT THE HELL, let me make a top-ten post on Tweets, NBA fans thought were better than last night's Dunk Contest.
Here they are...
