For me, it's that the below play is not a dunk. A dunk should require affirmative hand contact with the rim. Grazing it with your fingers does not count. See also Blake Griffin on Kendrick Perkins from back in the day.

On this note: the play in games should be for line 16. You win, great job….here’s a number 1

Let me rephrase
-
TarheelIllini
March 14, 2024, 14:50:09
Except the 8 teams in the play in games are not an addition to the original 64
-
Blazer
March 14, 2024, 15:57:16
This only works if the tourney is played by the 64 (or 68) best teams, meaning no more auto-bids
