Best guard in Chattanooga

[Chattbballfan]

I've seen lots of threads on best big men or best guards from other places. But I haven't seen one from Chattanooga in a while. I'm gonna ask who the best guard in Chattanooga is (give me your top 3 if ya want) because historically Chattanooga seems to be a guard dominated city. (not saying we haven't had our share of good big men) So who's the best?

Caleb?? Skogen??

 

Is Jonathan Adams considered a guard? I haven't seen him play this year. I know Plavich from Baylor can shoot the lights out but, again I haven't seen Baylor play.

 

It is a hard question to answer because alot of guys play out of position in high school.

 

CSAS has a few that are pretty good. (Cable and Marsh I think)

Probably the best ballhandler/passer in Chattanooga. But there are several guards who can shoot better. (not knocking his shhoting though, he is a good shooter, but some are better) Maybe the best thing about him is he IS clutch. One of the most clutch payers I've watched. But I'm not totally convinced he's the best. He very well might be though.

JA isn't a guard. He may be in college, but not right now. Plavich can shoot the lights out when he is on.

Caleb makes everyone around him better, thats why i think he should be considered as one of the best in the area.....granted, he isnt the best shooter, but he can make shots

Please don't make me laugh. I intended this thread for serious comments only, please. When I talk about the best guard, I think all-around play...shhoting, ballhandling, defense, clutch, leadership, UNSELFISHNESS, etc.

 

Davis is a stroker no doubt. However, he plays defense like an elementary girl. Easily the most selfish player I've watched in a few years. Makes no one around him better. Not the best ballhandler. Certainly no leadership. He had very little to do with Grace's success last year. That was all Van Horn and Parsons. Eldridge doesn't even make honorable mention.
