thetruth1 Posted July 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 Well it seems that we have definite contenders in the East and West but with Summertown and Loretto moving to AA then Middle TN appears to be wide open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Davis girl at McKenzie is the real deal. She may not win this year, as Darby will have much more name recognition throughout the state, but she's definitely in the conversation.

Davis plus the Reynolds kid from McKenzie are big-time players. Their stats are not going to wow you because their team is so talented and play unselfish. I'm going out on a limb and saying McKenzie runs Greenfield out of the gym this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not really going out on a limb. It was a 33 point game last year McKenzie should win again this year.

You better have a post player that can finish or at least a player a team has to defend. Because somebody along the way will handle pressure and cut back your transition offense and make you score in the half court. McKenzie has a great team but they better have some sort of an inside presence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetruth1 Posted July 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 The game is evolving into more and more of a perimeter game and especially behind the three point arc. The ability of the NBA guys to shoot from long range has progressed so far with guys like Curry and Lilliard. 30 years ago I just didn’t see three pointers being made with such as they are now. That being said a solid post game can go a long way because many folks don’t know how to defend the post well anymore. So for may taste, I still like a good point guard and a string post game.

We had 2 scorers in that game and no one else because Loretto did exactly what Pioneer said. They extended on defense. Took away our shooters and we had no answer inside.

North Green is not quite as long as Loretto and are not terribly quick but have good fundamentals and have some size and always seem to be in the right spot in the paint and up top. We were 3-21 from 3 point land against them. McKenzie will be tough and probably pre-season number 1 and deserving, but there will be some challengers.
