Grace Baptist v. East Robertson

[RawRockKills]

Those, my friend, are the words of a very arrogant young man who deserves to be benched for such an obnoxious comment. Hopefully, Mr. Eldridge did not really say this -- if I was his parent or coach, I'd not be pleased. And if I were a Grace fan, I wouldn't be spreading it around.

 

HAHA...Davis is a funny kid. He isnt arrogant...chill out man...you dont know the kid. Those words were said jokinglly between us Grace senior guys. And i wouldnt care how arrogant he was...if i had a player that could shoot like Davis...let him be arrogant...you would think the same thing if you had a shooter like Davis.

arrogance isnt really a bad thing with a shooter. Davis isnt an arrogant person at all. If you have ever talked to him he is very humble. Now when it comes to shooting he is VERY confident. He is one of those shooters who always thinks the next one if going in, and he usualy is right.

This chat board is both interesting and exciting when it comes to cross-regional play.

 

I am a Grace fan and will tell you that they are very deep. Even though the starters are mostly seniors, the rest of the team is cohesive and they will keep them in the game in order to give the starters a breather.

 

As many of you had already indicated, I don't think that the coaching staff or the guys at Grace will underestimate ER but will be confident as they should be. I'm sure the ER fans feel the same way - and their players and coaching staff will have them ready to play and they will also exhibit a confidence.

 

Most teams seem to have excellent players and maturity at this level and each of the games will be a game of match ups. If you look at the schedules and strength as well as the scores, I believe Grace would have to be favored by at least 10 points.

 

As late as Jan 20, Pickett County beat East Robertson 59-51 at ER. While I'm sure there has been some improvement and you can add 10 points for a bad night, poor refs, I cannot imagine that ER has the winning edge. Grace just beat Pickett County by 19. Someone talked about over-confidence and another talked about underdogs, Grace will be ready to play. Teams will have to guard all five players on the court and conversely, all 5 players will also be guarded heavily.

 

In Grace-Temple (5 games this year) Grace was down to Temple by 15 points and won the game. They have heart and they also have 4 seniors who don't want to graduate without the state honors. Grace also beat Temple by 18 points on Feb 10.

 

While Carter is younger and still growing etc. , he is tough and I have seen him shoot 3 pointers from NBA range. He also played against another 6 10 kid from East Ridge and bodied him pretty well. GO Grace - they will be very tough.

If Grace will take the ball to the "rack" like they are capable of, they can win this game. This game will come down to the last few minutes in the fourth quarter.

Excuse me uh "Wishiwasaballer" you need to be "Wish-i-knew-what-i-was-talking-about" b/c East has NEVER played Temple this year so maybe you need to study up before you post something that ignorant again!

Grace should win this game by double digits. I'm not saying that is going to happen just that it SHOULD happen. I have watched both teams play and Grace is definately the better team but now that doesn't always translate in to a victory so both teams had better bring their "A" game.

[volsbigd712]

Grace by 27 1/2. This one's in the bag. You gonna make it up there double d?

I would do anything to watch the Golden Eagles play in the Boro. Will you be up there?

 

Shouldn't it be more like Grace by 45(89*6%)/4XΣ??
