How will Dyer Co match up with White Station?

Wish there were more with your BBall IQ on these threads. Always enjoy your perspective.

I saw kids last night that drove in for this game from many miles away. They don't come to all games, just the special ones. They come not only to see DC, but to see old friends and aquaintances. Prather is a special player. I don't know how many charges were c alled but it was a lot on both teams. If there was a doubt, it was a c harge. One ref called most any drive a charge. He was at a different place in the second half, rersulting in more charges called on DC. One point. DC had a larger point lead with Prather in the game than when he was not. This was not about Prather but the fact that NS played better team ball when he was not in game. When he was NS looked to him, understandably, almost every play and he did respond which is the mark of a great player. Once again free throws almost beat DC. If they shoot like that they will be beaten and are lucky it hasn't already happened.

Probably Carver

I never hear how many players off Dyersburg are former DC players or came out of the county system. Decker is a great coach, but she did try to stop the Dyersburg-DC series so she wouldn' lose. McCord didn't win COY because of jealousy. Coaches don't want to look bad and McCord has made all of them look like jv coaches by turning the DC program around.

There are three keys to DC advancing to state. When DC plays a team for the first time their shock defense is very hard to prepare for. That is usually worth 10 points the first time. 2. their coaching is very good. Evidence of this is their team play in most games. C J had rather have assists than points which is what a class point guard will always take. 3 when the chips are down as in last years state tournament, CJ took the team on his back and scored around 30. His shot is not pretty but always take the money player over the one with the pretty shot.

Great game! Both teams left it all on the floor and that is all you can ever ask for. No quit in either team. CJ and #24 for Fulton put on quite a show.

Yes he actually did.

This game would be a tossup without Fuqua but Russell is worth 10 points by himself. GC by 10.
