three in the corner off the inbounds is quickly becoming a fav play in key spots for for Lloyd and shot/play Mathurin loves - look for it more under the hoop on out of bounds play more

Yes, that was is a sweet play.
And Benn looked back at the bench like somebody from TCU was talking shit like saying "not a chance" when the ball went up.

Saw at least 4 TCU fouls on Benn that weren't called, and one where Larsson was given a TO but certainly looks like he was pulled.

posted this in the game thread, but gonna repost it here cause it's just that good of a dunk in my opinion (but if someone else has posted this video let me know and I'll delete this):

my favorite video of the mathurin dunk. no announcers. court noise and fan noise only. from the floor.
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

The biggest seal of approval in basketball is when the crowd pops not only for the dunk, but each time a replay's shown.

You could hear the crowd reacting to each replay afterwards. That's when you know it's more than just good and has become another beast entirely.

Just saw a stupid Outkick article that suggests Mathurin may have touched a TCU cheerleaders chest on his way out of the arena after the game. I watched it and it looked like it was inadvertent to me. He had his arms out celebrating. Looks like nothing to me. It's so annoying that certain people have to create misery and drama even in the best moments. How dare you be happy! You just scored 30 and advanced to the Sweet 16. Unbelievable.

Hey, you can't pick him in the Natty, we like pinky swore on that crap!

Just kidding, it's fine, I'll take all the credit for his awesome play in the Natty. ;)

Posted in the Kerr thread too but teams had to exit opposite their bench so our guys had to leave through the tunnel where TCU band and cheer was. Kerr gestured to their fans but they didn’t do anything directed toward the cheer/Pom teams. It was as they left the court and AZ fans were above the tunnel

Anyone who thinks Benn needs to touch a booby is a complete and utter Incel, I can promise you he probably doesn't even need to ask for booty, with his accent and his financial ceiling and being able to speak french that dude hasn't needed to reach out a touch a booby since moving to Arizona.

Its probably white racist incel bro's trying to distract from the fact that they can't get laid even by their cousins who are known whores...

Her body is over her left foot putting her chest around the middle of the R painted on the floor.
Mathurin’s body is centered above his feet, shifting his weight from back foot to front foot.
Mathurin’s hand is already down in the screen shot and would be above the blue paint between the R and the baseline.

Guess I shouldn’t have posted that link…NY post picking it up and all. If you watch it, his hand is down and he’s swinging his arm. It doesn’t get held up hitting her chest. It’s literally a fluid motion of him moving his arm and even though it’s not the greatest angle he didn’t touch her. If he did, she didn’t even flinch at all either.

Should not have deleted the video, now in the article only the really bad angle is viewable.

Here's another angle I found

Let’s get back to basketball. Let the admin deal with it, but I still say he didn’t touch her. Was there at the tunnel and had the video that NY Post had attached (it’s the NY post…they live for gossip). He wasn’t even looking in their direction and was going toward tunnel. Even if he did possibly “touch” her it was inadvertent and this is blown way out of proportion.
