Well this wasn't a hypothetical dunk contest. And they played it how they wanted to play it. And they scored it how they wanted to score it.And if they want to have a 3 point contest where men shoot from 50 feet and women from 40, they'll do it, and people will pay to see it and athletes will compete. Don't like it, don't watch it. It's not sports, it's entertainment.
By the way, the year that Spud Webb won the NBA slam dunk competition, he did so in part because he was 5'7" and people were amazed he could dunk. I don't remember who lost, but maybe they should all file a formal protest. You shouldn't qualify for bonus points just because people are amazed that you can dunk. We need a new rule I guess
