Lipscomb vs. Portland

[DISS78]

These teams split, home and home, this year! Should be a great game! Does PHS have the advantage because of home court? Your thoughts and predictions--

This should and will be an exciting game. I think i am staying to watch the game. The semifinals and finals should be very interesting because the top 4 teams are all going to be playing each other. Thursday and Friday might be the best tournament setups that i have ever been involved in. Portland definitely has the advantage but i think Lipscomb will be ready to try and shut it down. I wonder what Lipscomb has in store for Corey Brewer and what they plan on doing to slow him down.

This will certainly be a great game. Home Court should play a large role in this game, but it will not be the determining factor. Brewer is coming off of the double double over East Lit. However, in the first two meeting Lipscomb did not have Anthony Hopkins to d-up Brewer. Hops will play a big role in this game on the defensive side of the ball. Good Luck to the Mustangs. DL+2

If Portla can play the rest of the tournament with the intensity on both ends of the floor that they did last night, it will be hard for anybody in the district to beat them. Last night, Portland layed very, very well together. Brewer had a good game after a slow start but his teammates played great. They came ready to play and everyone that touched the floor contributed. If they can play with this intensity they will beat MLK in the finals of the tournament.

I think Portland will definitly take this one with home court advantage and Brewer playing very good ball right now. Hopkins is a very good defender but Corey Brewer is an all american. I'm gonna take Brewer High by 8.

Portland by 7...

Brewer is good, but DL has the better team. DL by 10...

It takes more than one player to win a game and DL has an overall better team even though Brewer is the best in the midstate. DL will take this in a close game by 5

Semi-finals of the district has to be one of the toughest games to play. Your team has just secured a spot to get into the region tournament, so you know you have other games to play. Will the teams have a letdown? I think so. Question is, who will be mentally tougher? As they did last year, Portland seems to be peaking at the right time. I do believe that Lipscomb has the better overall team. Nevertheless, playing at home gives them a 5-7 point advantage. Both regular season games were close, and I expect the same again. With Anthony back, advantage Lipscomb. Yes, that is a biased statement, but one he has been able to back up on the court.

 

Go Mustangs!

This should be a great game. I'll be there to watch it and personaly although i think DL has the better overall team i hope Portland gets em'. If all goes as planned we'll beat the winner on fridy night for the championship any way though so we'll see.

 

PHS 7+

I think that DL has the better team and Portland has the best player. So advantage DL. Im goin with Mantlo and the Stangs on this one by 8. Good luck Mustangs.

Okay, My gut tells me that Portland will actually win this big going away. Brewer will come big on both ends of the court and home court will be an advantage as well. Portland by 16.
