Michael Wilbon(co-host on PTI) only gave the dunk a B+. He said something to the effect that 360 dunks have become almost commonplace. To really ‘wow the crowd’ these days, you have to do a 720. It’s sorta like the evolution of ice skating jumps evolving from the triple to the quad.

Punjab on "Theo Pinson takes North Carolina over Indiana"Geoff, I hate to see you write something like that.
