Final.

Tough loss for the Muskies.

 

Congrats to EC.

Good win for the Raiders, especially with 2 starters out.

Who was out?

I was very impressed by the Raiders.

Very well-coached with good size and athleticism/

I think they may be the one team with a slight chance of upsetting Elliott.

Thats why I have been saying since last summer

Congrats to East Carter on the win. Not sure anyone can play with Elliott, but if East had two starters out, maybe they can give them a good game. Should be fun to watch.

Now for Greenup. They are without a doubt the most selfish basketball team I've seen play in a long time. With the exception of #3, who is their best shooter and takes fewer shots than anyone, whoever gets the pass from the point guard shoots, whether they are open or not. They could have three or four defenders on them, which means SOMEONE is open and they shoot it anyway, usually with no one under for the rebound. Probably shooting around 10% from the field. Greenup has some talent, but until they learn to play as a team and quit worrying about individual stats, it's going to be a long season.

East did play well, but probably scored 40+ points from wide open lay-ups, after they broke Greenups press and they had no one back on defense.

I hope Greenup does turn it around and have a good season. Good luck to both teams.

Hopefully Jackson plays like his Mom and not his Dad:thumb:

My thoughts on Greenup exactly. Elliott broke the "press" repeatedly and shot layup after layup. That style of play can work IF you can shoot and apply defensive pressure. Greenup does neither.
