Northside comes to Bolivar on Sat. at 1pm. Bolivar has the overall speed advantage but does'nt have anybody to match up against Prather. I got Bolivar in a close one.

Prather is a good player. But he is only one man, I have seen Northside come down the floor and jackup shots 3 and 4 trip without Prather touching the ball. So if that happens I pick Bol. by 12. then two don't think he can play four quaters at the pace that Bolivar will pick up to as the game goes on.

BOL. 78

NS 66

Prather is a great player. He seems like he is barely moving but he is flying. He also gets calls because he is great. went to the line 22 times i think. give or take one. He had 5 old fashioned 3 point plays. the other starting 4 are tops as well. Bolivar will bounce back.

It looks like he's barely moving because he's head and shoulders above the rest of the people on the court. Go watch Joe Jackson (White Station) play sometime. It looks like he isn't even trying out on the court, but it's because he's just that good. The reason Prather goes to the line 20+ times a game is due to the fact people want to try and compete with him and block his shot and it winds up being a foul.

 

Like I stated earlier, if North Side can get Rod Long, Trevail Musgrave and Casey Prather all playing to the best of their ability on a consistent basis, NS could go a long ways. NS is a good team around Prather.

No Doubt! I was trying to pay him a compliment about looking like he is barely moving. Kid is an absolute Beast. He's not a flashy kid either. I only saw him celebrate once, and that was on a 3 that put the game away. He is that good. You saw the Bolivar kids trying to block shots in the 1st half. Not so much in the second half. It was benefit of the doubt calls. It was just a few. It did not affect the outcome either. Just stating an opinion.

 

As far as the other boys go... They played lights out. They collapse on the ball amazingly fast. #10 is a sharpshooter. I like watching northside play. They are very unselfish and can absolutely fly. Like you said, if the play together...They can go very far.
