Miles representing Duke well!

Funny how he got booed, though.

That is some decent mobility for a big lunk.

The Gabriel dunk of the side of the backboard was pretty sweet. Miles is tied with Narcisse.

Being 6'10 kills him in this contest. Hopefully he can take out Narcisse (whose dunk was way better). I think Duke fans tweeting will put him into the top 4 though. There are certainly more of them than Clemson fans, and more who would tune in to watch Miles than Clemson fans who would watch Narcisse.

Hopefully he gets to dunk again. I think only the top 4 advance. He's tied for 4th. Definitely not his best dunk. Would have liked to see him bring a bit more there.

I don't like the twitter aspect of this. Lame.

Oh well. Time to do something else.

The little dude or Daequan Jones is going to win this. My money is on the little dude.

Miles did great.

Narcisse is hilarious with the goggles.

I love how they have these officials standing there with their hand on the ball and a Rushmore stern stare on their faces like they're guarding integrity itself. Dude, you're making sure a guy doesn't have more than 30 seconds to dunk a ball. Chill.

Um... Way more Duke haters out there...

In fairness, Narcisse's dunk was better.

You knew he was in trouble when he was the only player being booed.

I know, I know, I was hoping it wouldn't be that way. Narcisse's first dunk was way better than Miles' though...

Jimmy Dykes blew that first pass. What a doof.

Especially since he's wearing those god forsaken "elite" togs.

Hope he's making a nice check.

I still think Miles acquitted himself honorably.

My MVP for the event is the short blonde chick who accurately bounced the feed pass off the shot clock.

OK son, I appreciate what you're tryna do here, but that ain't a truck and you ain't Blake Griffin.

Would have been much better had he a) dunked over it lengthwise; b) hung from the rim; and then c) dropped right onto the seat and rode off into the sunset.

Let's be honest - watching 5'8" guys dunk is just fun.

I think they might have been booing the zero score for the player who just missed his dunks.

I thought Miles got shafted. To me, dunk contest dunks are only interesting if your head gets near the rim or you do something original. Off the backboard mini-windmill with your head at the rim should have beaten everyone but Johnson and Narcisse, IMO. Windmill off the side of the backboard gets a perfect score? We had like 4 guys do that at the CTC dunk contest.

That little guy was awesome, though. He got some unreal air on his failed first dunk attempt in the final round.

The side of the backboard one wasn't that great also because they missed the first try.

We really thank you Miles for your hard work during your 4 years with Duke basketball.

An NCAA championship, along with other big wins, and a degree prepares you well for whatever you may choose.

Best of luck and proud of you.
