Was John Logan Smith one of them PP? If so congrats to him.

 

Not sure. I wasn't paying close attention.

Where is the district and region at this year anybody?

 

I believe district is at Danville this year. Region is at Pulaski County.

Thanks for the info PP.

Does anyone know Taylor's assist to TO ratio? I know he's averaging 8 assists. I'm sure someone close to the program can get that.

Every player for Lincoln plays their role to perfection. They are for real. Conway is a good forward and Taylor is a great PG. Both are much improved from their sophomore years. Remove Taylor and Lincoln looks like they did when they got spanked by South Oldham (without Taylor). Simple as that.

 

Playing with Taylor is easily worth 10 PPG for Conway - as it would be for any "go-to" guy that Taylor would play with. I say that not to take anything away from Conway but to illustrate what I think Taylor means to both his team and to Conway's game.

 

"perfection" - that is pretty good is it not? So how have they been beaten?

Regarding Boyle, I'm still where I was pre-season. I think they are a good guard/PG away from being a very, very good team.

 

There's been a lot of talk about Taylor and Conway on here but Tyler, in a loss, appears to have had a good game as well. Granted, Boyle's offense is structured to get him looks but let's not forget that he doesn't have the luxury of a Taylor to "assist" him - and look at his numbers on the season. I've seen a lot of players in the class of 2015 and I will say that this kid is way underrated (relative to rankings and discussions I've seen on here).

Some teams have better players who play their roles to perfection as well. In terms of 12th Region teams they have only lost to Wayne County who is the reigning top dog in the 12th Region.

This was a first for me:

 

 

Watch it a little more closely and you can see him hit Josiah in his man region before he slapped his butt.

 

It happens at :13 seconds in the video after Josiah set the screen.

Maybe an analogy will help you to better understand. If Lincoln played UK tomorrow, I'm fairly confident that UK would destroy them due to the talent differential - even though Lincoln would likely play their roles to perfection - and even though it appears that UK players still don't understand their roles most of the time!

 

It doesn't mean that Lincoln will be the best team or win every game; it does mean that they will be the best team that they can be.

 

And that's exactly how I would describe Lincoln right now.

This is not surprising at all. Dirty to be a little more specific.

Taylor has to stop that type of behavior. I love his game but that reputation follows him and will ultimately be a detractor for coaches at the next level. Bad attitudes and behavior are too prevelant among too many of the better players. Maybe we should put together a list of the best players that also have the best attitudes. I'm afraid that would be a much shorter list. Unfortunately, in the 12th it would be....

Taylor is a very good point guard but he is the dirtiest player in the 12th region and it's not even close. He hit Josiah 3 times in the man region and that's coming from Josiah himself . No place for that in basketball. Plus his attitude is terrible. In the long run its going to hurt him in his recruitment

yes I'm biased but IMO Hagen is a top 15 player on class of 2015. If u saw what he did with the Louisville Magic last summer against top flight competition you would agree.

Don't disagree with you at all.

He's averaging 23 points and almost 8 rebounds per game at the varsity level. Who is doubting that he's a top 15 sophomore?
