First time I've seen it. Ridiculous.

The second one was pretty sweet. The first one I wouldn't classify as a dunk to be honest. It was an impressive move/shot. But he basically laid the ball in. His hand never really came down on the rim.

If you can get high enough to throw the ball down through the hoop, I call it a dunk.

Agree, first one wasn't a dunk.

Buckeyes with a so-so win today vs CConn. Didn't look great, but didn't look bad either. 74-56 final.

It was a dull game. Played great the first 5 or so minutes and then essentially coasted the rest of the way. Guess that's what happens when you're playing a team like that on a day where the school's football team has a much bigger game kicking off around the time you're done with post-game media stuff, showering and dinner.

Hustled down to Columbus sat after watching a game up in Massillon. Central Conn State. Boy was that a snoozer of an atmosphere at Value City.

Got Bryant tonight. Hopefully Q keeps playing well. Bryant has a legit scorer in Starks.

Bryant isn't a terrible team. OSU should win by 20+, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them win the NEC.

Who the hell is the NEC? Can't even think of the name of the conference let alone a team in it.

Northeastern Conference I'm guessing??

That looked like a hack by Craft. Straight forearm.

Yeah, Northeast Conference. LIU was their tourney team last year. Kentucky-killer Robert Morris left the conference this year. Wagner is also in that conference... Dan Hurley's job before moving to Rhode Island.

I wish Loving was more aggressive on offense, he's gonna be a good one.

Replay showed differently.

I kept saying how Loving is going to be a beast and an immediate boost to this team

I thought replay more than confirmed that he hit him across the arms. All the way up around the inside of his elbows.

Not sure he has really been a boost to the team. Very timid offensively right now.

In case anyone was wondering why Amir Williams had been playing better this year. Matta has been giving him a "little extra" at practice.

Nope. If you watch closely, his arms don't move--he reacts as if he were hit a second or two after the strip.

Saw that last night, too funny. No idea how he caught himself mid word like that.

I really think you're wrong about that one.
