SpartanToBe Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 One more thing, that's also why when those type of teams do lose, they usually figure they need to go out and find some bigger, faster, better pressure players, because apparently their guys aren't quite big and fast enough, as opposed to trying to improve on what they have. Funny how these coaches want to find bigger, better guys so the outcome is never in question, but if you put the kids in a gym with no adults, they would even up the teams and have great games.

Celticsballer23 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 The grizzles only beat the celtics by 5 The 15 nashville celtics have beaten the stars so they have to go on the list. 16 thunder lost to the 15 tigers so how are they an elite team grizzlies won by double digits against celtics, they are very strong and i thnik they would beat all teams in tennessee except mybe tigers but it would be a game.

tarheel1 Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 16u- the tn wildcats are a new team coached by Jan van Breda Kolff. They only had one practice and almost beat the stallions. They were missing a couple guys too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gomab2 Posted April 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 I didn't want to say anything, but there is WAY too much overhyping the Grizzlies... They had a great tourney at Riverdale with some good wins, which is why they're currently ranked 4th in the State, but they are no where near as good as everyone is making them out to be. Our 15u team lost to them by 3 points, without one of our 6'6 kids, also while playing all 15 players similar minutes without our head 15's coach. The Grizzlies are good, and Drew Kelly is a heck of a player, but they are no where near as good as made out to be, nor could they even compete with Tn Tigers or the top two Memphis teams. Throw in a weak schedule, and they should quickly drop below the Ballerz and Travelers, among others... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanFan Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Grizzlies have won a few games by 3 or so. Often the game is totally in hand, the pace is being controlled, and the opponent makes 1 or 2 desperation 3's at the end, making the game look closer than it actually was. The Grizzlies have led and controlled every game they have played, except one. Drew Kelly is not the only big time player on that team. Blake Neel is awfully good, too, and basically every kid on the team can play. The Franklin Rage is better than some of the teams being mentioned on these lists, and the Fury Select is not far behind. Both basically local teams.

willlenox Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Heard the Knox Cagers(formerly the Zags) beat the Travelers 16's by 20 at Smoky Mtn Shootout..... We will see who the better team in the state. The Stallions 17u & 15u are not bad, our 9u team is very good. You know about our 16u team.

UTvolsbigOrange Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 What the heck is going on with u guys... The grizzlies are now the best team in middle tennessee never heard of them til this year. But let me say this it probably just proves my point about middle tn being weak. Now you guys are calling out Memphis Bellvue(YOMCA) you better be sic or you will get embarssed I hope Frank Harris reads this. I will be sure to talk with him about this. A little punk team from middle tn is going to call out Big M you got to be wacked out. Dude make sure you and your boys make it to the AAU state. I want to watch you eat your words. If you lose in sub-state shut the heck up and dont ever compare yourself to the BIG M again. Who the heck r u guys anyway who have you beat besides pasties from middle tn. What nationals have you played in...WHAT YOu KNOW ABOUT THAT... I really want to see this team now. I spreading the WORD in the BIG M about you calling out Memphis Bellvue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mach84 Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 The Grizzles have one of thw worst attitudes ive ever seen, we played them a few years ago and they had 4 t's and 3 players ejected, and I mother who called out are coaches and said they cheated and told us to go back to Alabama. We had only 1 player from Bama. Our team has only tow players from out of state, and the rest are in town and go to nashville private and public schools.
