Who's the best shooter?

Featured Replies

I never made no mention of what his numbers were Sir!!!!!!!!!! I only made mention that he is a good shooter whether anyone want's to admit that or not! I think everyone on this board know's that he is no where near 75% from three! As ADDOUT said though my post is true!

 

I just think some of you guys are a little over the top. To say that someone is unquestionably the best shooter in the state seems absurd to me. I am not saying Jenkins or Ferguson isn't the best. But there is a lot of teams in this state. And I know no one on here has seen every team or every player who is supposed to be a good shooter.

You are incorrect sir. I know you've been a strong negative oveture of Jenkins. The good news is that his options continue to swell. And yes, UK has become an option along with a few others. Enjoy the season.

 

PTB....What topics will you post on next season?

St. X will be one of my favorites. You got it Tuesday. I got one more year. How about you?

I would have to add the name of Zak Metz from Bath County to the discussion of a great shooter.

 

48.9 FG% 44.7 3pt%, 81.9 FT% averages 24.8 points a game and adds 8.1 rebounds playing in the 3 spot.

 

He also draws the defense.

You quoted me and then said the 1st highlighted above!!! I did not say he was the best shooter!! I said I dont care if he is or not, and then told a little about some points on how he plays that would attribute to him being a "Great shooter"! Never said the best anywhere in post!!!!!!!!!!

 

Including you!!!!!!!!!!!(2nd highlighted)

Yes I know I haven't seen everyone either. Thats why I would never say 1 person is the best shooter. Thats the reason why I named about 8 or 10 guys that I have seen.

 

I just think its unfair for these kids for people to put too much on their shoulders. It reminds me of a book I was ready lately that was a biography about King Kelly Coleman. He said in the book that he really resented the nickname "king." Look Ferguson is a great player. As is Jenkins. But the way they are talked about, if they aren't the greatest shooter, player, winner or have the quickest first step, midrange game, etc this year its impossible to live up to the hype.

I think they both have lived up to the hype!! Jenkin's has had injuries or he would have more so than he has!! So has Hood, Penny, Phares, Faulkner's, etc.!!!! They all are hyped to be great shooter, scorer's, players and in my opinion they have!!! What we say or argue about on here don't bother these boy's!! Jonathan don't even read these message board's! I cant speak for the other's though, but if they do I doubt that it bothers them other than making them work harder to get better!!!!!!!!!!

 

OKAY!!! Ferg is not the best shooter in the state, but by crackies if you need some points on the board he sure know's how to get em for you whether it be draining 9 out of 12 3's in a single game or floating through under the defender in the paint while getting hammered and reversing it on the other side, or his patented turn around fall away where he clear's a 6 foot space between him and the defender and nothing but net!!! For the biggest portion of his career

he has gotten the job done regardless of the talent level!!!!! He has 3220 points to back that up!!!!!!!!!!

 

Last but not least......I really appreciate you having him on your list!!!!!!!!!!

He's not going to get any support on BGP... But Cameron Hall of Glasgow is an amazing shooter. I haven't seen anyone wear a Glasgow jersey and shoot as well as he does since the Brandon Stockton era.

Wow. You just described Michael Jordan! :lol:

 

Hes a very good player no doubt.

Any relation to Ervin Stepp 1977-1980 @ Phelps?

Actually Ferg might not be the best scorer in the state either. There's a kid in nky by the name of Blake Bryan who's a junior at Villa Madonna, that is currently averaging 31 ppg. He also plays on a not so good team which means he is seeing double and triple teams every night. Thought you might be interested in seeing his stats:

 

778 points through 25 games.

 

Here are the numbers he's put up this year:

 

37 pts v Newport

38 pts v Lloyd

30 pts v Calvary Christian

27 pts v Silver Grove

33 pts v St. Henry

24 pts v Newcath

26 pts v Oldham County

35 pts v Seneca (top 20 team)

28 pts v Silver Grove

35 pts v Newport

37 pts v Dixie Heights

35 pts v St. Bernard

48 pts v Bellevue

15 pts v Beechwood

30 pts v Dayton

28 pts v Ludlow

30 pts v Heritage

25 pts v Ludlow

19 pts v Calvary Christian

45 pts v Louisville Collegiate

26 pts v Silver Grove

20 pts v Ludlow

39 pts v Bellevue

40 pts v Dayton

28 pts v Heritage

 

BTW....this kid is only 5'9 putting up numbers like that. Here's a nice article about him. This is also only his second year of varsity ball, I believe:

Wow, he is averaging 32 shots per game. I wonder how that ranks? That is the challenge with using statistics to gauge players....too many variables: team makeup, offensive style, game situations (for a good team, often the good players sit out the latter part of games); level of competition; and whether the team run plays to set up a shooter or not.
