Does anyone know Odem's regional championship stat line? I saw where it said he almost had a quadruple double, WOW!

Gonna have to say Krop loses next round to Boyd. I agree with Miller Grove, either them or Bearden out of that top bracket in my opinion. Those 2 and Boyd and Briarcrest are in the semis. By then, its a toss up in my eyes. On the other comment, the Adams transfer was best for everyone. Adams will get the most out of his potential, which happened in football also. And Odem gets to do his thing, a player I love watching play. Handles the ball on a string, always scores on mismatches, and is money in the 4th quarter. A buddy of mine threw out a theory that it seems silly for Science Hill to feel the need to play up and down all the time. For the last 4 years they have had matchup nightmares, Wattad, Odem, And Adams, but they are never patient on offense to get them into a situation where they can score. There are plenty of players Odem can score on if they take patience. I also don't understand how they run that drive and kick offense when they don't really have any shooters. Thats the whole point of that offense is to get open threes. I figure in a school of 2600 they have to be able to find some guys who can shoot the ball.

I think Boyd is going to win it all. The Boyd vs. Briarcrest matchup, if it happens in the Semi's would probably be the best game of the tournament and probably decide the champion IMO.

Central folks shouldn't worry. They are still a very dangerous team, Brown is their glue man, their MVP in my opinion. I didn't say most outstanding, but I do think they're most valuable, he calms everyone down and helps them get into their sets. I understand Vannoy has taken alot of shots, but he is a shooter, he has to have a short memory, these rough couple of games will lead to his shot coming around. He would not have such a green light if he wasn't a good player. Along with that, the majority of his shots are within the offense, granted, there are a few times he may dribble a bit too much, but I don't think he deserves too much criticism. Central will get better, their showing against DB proved how good they can be, and now that Albright is back, they will have 4 post players who are strong and know their roles. (Devault-scorer, Sturgill-physical,Winchell-Hustle,Albright-Athlete). I am not saying all 4 do not have other strengths, but that is the best thing they bring to the table. Its early, Central will be in the top 5 and that is key, hopefully they can jump into the top 3 because this year the difference between a 3-6 matchup and a 4-5 matchup is HUGE! I'll say Central by 10. However, 3 of the last 5 matchups between Central and South at Central have had insane endings, the Brown Half court shot, the Crowe half court shot, and the Roberts lay-up last year. Maybe this year will be crazy again! Stay injury free!

I dunno, Sylvester last night put the team on his back, and single handedly gave them a lead with his steals and hustle. I think if anyone else would have had a good night with him DB coulda pulled last night out. However, give credit to Central for not letting the Indians get on track.

The way I saw it was Edwards came out strong, so Central realized they needed to focus on DB's post players. When they were able to double down and Halverson and Mcconnel were having trouble hitting jumpers they basically did all they could to make the outside shooters for DB beat them. Last night, the shots weren't falling, and DB was hurting. Coach Vaughn had a great gameplan for the Cougars last night.

Depends on the player that got fouled hard, if it was their meal ticket, sometimes it can be a knee jerk reaction to come on to the court. Not condoning the action, just saying.

Just out of curiosity did anyone see the Whitman Georgia team play at the roundball in the game where 10 players got thrown out? What on earth happened. Sounds pretty awesome. I don't think they were feeling the holiday spirit

Quick rundown, and spoiler alert. Rocky beats Apollo Creed in Rocky 2, they become buddies, Apollo trains Rocky, including a beach scene where they have a real intense man hug on the beach in Rocky 3 I believe. Then in Rocky 4 Ivan Drago comes around, and Apollo wants to show he still has it. Too bad Ivan whips his tail, tragic ending. Rocky then fights Ivan in Russia and wins, and the Russian crowd turned against Ivan and cheered for Rocky. That was when he pulled the quote, "During this fight, I've seen a lot of changing, in the way you feel about me, and in the way I feel about you. In here, there were two guys killing each other, but I guess that's better than twenty million. I guess what I'm trying to say, is that if I can change, and you can change, everybody can change!". That was what rebelrebelman pulled out. Seriously dude, watch the Rocky's.

By the way, please tell me you saw the tricitiessports article about SH's win over that Georgia team. The writer almost used the "you got a stew going" quote. He teased us! I think SH and DB will split games this year. Sounds like each team is very good.

I clearly remember making you tap a time or two. Besides, with my perfect jaw line, buff bod, and pretty blonde hair and penchant for beating up sissy boys (you), my Ivan Drago comparison works to a T. You're just a wanna-be! HA!

Yeah but you already used the Rocky quote so you had to take Rocky, at least I make for a great villain and make you cry like a little girl!

And you can bet I'll keep mocking you because I'm your Ivan Drago boy. Say goodbye to your little Apollo Creed lover! (Tricitiessports Fan)

Thats not what you said at my Birthday party Mr. Brag about eating 17 slices!

I bet that is one of the best stat lines that has been put up against Central in the last 5 years. Coach Vaughn is usually pretty good at stopping one player if he has too. And this team is taller and has more length than Central teams of the past. I am just saying, even going into this year, I expected Odem to quietly control games and be successful. Take what the defense gives him, and he will have his nights where he is on fire, but even when he is off, like it sounded like he was, he has a solid game.
