8AA 2014 Predictions

[BigBoy2008]

Very ugly basketball being played in Baxter this week. Two halftime leads blown due to missed foul shots and isolation basketball. Everyone looking for their own shot, nobody trying to create for someone else so most times it's 1 pass and shoot in the half court set.There has been some good flashes when we push the tempo and run the floor. Maybe we can get things turned around in Florida. Congrats Macon

Yes it was a very poorly played game by both teams. It was apparent that Upperman players weren't attempting to play as a team, even arguing with each other on the floor. Upperman definately has some talent but if you can't play as a team it won't get you very far. Macon can't seem to get any momentum going. As soon as they get on a roll or any sort of solid lead the coach is gonna play his bench. He is gonna sub at least 2 or 3 players every quarter with 4 min left on the clock. Every coach in the district knows it and loves it. We had a good lead till he pulled the some starters then Upperman gained 10 pts. Same stunt cost us the game against CC last week too.

To be fair, I was not at the mc/cc game. But many has said your starters were on the floor in third quarter when they were out scored 17-3. Maybe cc was just better? Coach R did make substitutions as well. Macon has a good team and seems to be well coached, but could give cc some credit for just outplaying them.

Also if you want to be fair wbryguy you can go over to the CC v/s MC page and see where I said CC was a very scrappy and fast, and that they had a great team this year. Didn't mean to ruffle your feathers on this page. Just trying to give opinions on our last two games. Our starters played maybe a couple minutes in the third quarter against CC and then he pulled at least three of them and at one point 4 of them. The starters went back in with about three minutes left in the game and went from about 20 pts down to 11pts. Our starters never get a chance to get anything going before he pulls them.

I still believe cannon has the best team in the district but Livingston will be the hurdle for everybody. Macon already has a 1-up there.

Tomorrow's predictions?

I'll take your word or it. No harm done here.

Predictions: LA over SC 72-57, MC over DC 62-55, Upset Alert! York over CC 65-60

[dctiger]

Very winnable game for DC. I like our chances as long as we don't have a first quarter like we did against York.

Yes sir! All three of these games could go either way.

[tnhoosier]

Cannon & York tied at 30 at the half.

[dctiger]

DC falls 60-51. Just too many turnovers against the press and couldn't stop Perrigo.

[Guest AllBlue]

LA 69-58 over SC. Next game Thursday at Smoky Mountain Classic against Carter.
