Did Dunbar lead from start to finish?

[silo11]

Dunbar had a decent lead, Trinity came back took the lead, then Dunbar got it back late in the 4th and kept it from there.

Great game to watch. Trinity has to be the best 3 point shooting team I've seen this season. Finished the night 13/23 for the game and a couple of those misses were last minute prayers. Two good teams that both deserve to recognized as some of the states best.

Huge win for coach Chalk and the Dunbar program.

 

It's still early but their the best of the 11th.

Stats that jumped out at me: REBOUNDING Trinity got smoked 17 to 37 I think. Trinity's 2 point FGs 7/28 and free throws attempted Dunbar 30 Trinity 8.

Has anyone realized that Dunbar has only played one game on their home floor?

I almost expect these 2 teams to meet a third time @ Rupp for a state title. Havent seen teams like Mercer Co. or Christian Co. but these 2 are probably top 2 teams in the state. But they dont play games on potential. Should be a great tournament

Dunbar attacked the basket much more then Trinity did. Trinity spent a lot of time on the perimeter shooting jump shots. I think that's why you see the difference in free throws attempted.

I agree. but driving shouldn't mean a foul. Dunbar had 30 FTA. 4 came from non shooting fouls. So 26. Dunbar had 33 2 point FGs attempted, 2 AND 1s. So 31 shots with no fouls. Take the 24 (26-2 for the AND 1s) add to the FG total (31) = 55. 24/55 = 44% of Dunbars' shots resulted in free throws.

 

I'm not saying this decided the game, just pointing it out. I think Trinity lost because of the 7/28 2 point shots, a lot of missed layups. Oh well, it's going to be a fun season. Looking forward to the LIT!

Driving almost always means a foul these days. Not saying I agree with it, but it is my belief that the driver gets a lot of leeway, even when initiating contact.

 

Is it just me?

I saw Dunbar twice in the KOB & they weren't impressive at all. It didn't look like they got along with each other and offense was 1-2 players. Were they missing some players?

Wow. I hadn't realized that.

[tcjkbt]

Trinity is not big. That has concerned me. Looks like that problem came home to roost against Dunbar. Each team has now won by 11 points in their home city (but not home court).

[HoopJunkie]

2 top notch teams fighting it out. I get the feel that if they played 10 times, the series would be 5-5.
