Technically, it was a dunk.
I don't really care what the technical definition of a dunk is, y'all know what people mean when we say that Dwight's 2nd wasn't a dunk.

That said, I'd still give it 50 and I found it very impressive, but it would have been better if he dunked it, and I'd prefer if contestants completed an actual typical dunk, not some loop-hole in its technical definition..

But again, I'd give it 50 anyway, that was an amazing performance. JNice knows whats up too.
