I don't know how many times the Refs missed Pike Central taking too many steps. Lowe was allowed to do whatever he wanted. Pikeville's guards got mugged the whole entire game, getting a little forearm everytime they brought the ball up the floor. But, nevertheless, I was quite pleased with the effort Pikeville put forth in this game. It looked like a different team. But, you can still see the inexperience from some of the guards. I think the guards need to be stronger with the ball, and our big guys need to start making the easy buckets.
I think Bart Williams is doing a heck of a job thus far this season, with what he has. If he could find a go to guy out there, then this team could make some noise come tourney time. Somebody needs to step up, and lead this team. We need to show teams that we can hit the open 15 footers. In my opinion if Pikeville would've capitalized on some of their easy shots, and not make so many soft passes, then the Panthers would have won tonight.
