The umpire clearly saw the dunk. How, you may ask, do I believe that to be true from my seat in the stands? Because he immediately walked over to the player, put his hand on his back and talked to him. I assumed he was informing the player he had been assessed a techinical foul and getting his number for recording purposes. However, game time arrived and it started with the normal toss.
What are your thoughts.

No brainer imo. If it's an obvious dunk, a technical foul should have been called. But after saying that, I do agree with M&M also. There
might be a reason that the dunk wasn't called. There
may have been instructions given to the crew beforehand. So, without talking to the official involved, the "might" and "may" means there is possibly a slight doubt involved.
Put me down with M&M as being slightly wishy-washy also.
