It takes the pressure off trying to invent 3-4-5 dunks to wow and impress. You need 1-2 because the rest of the contest is all recreating things like Dr J, MJ, Vince.
I absolutely LOVE this idea. Totally fixes that awkward silence while players keep missing their impossible dunks over and over.
In fact I can't believe they haven't thought if that idea yet.
