No those two would get themselves out of the game early.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 2:13 pm
If he does guarantee he gets Holden and Truitt out of the game early.
They said who uploaded it. Regular season is just a warm up for what really matters honestly, if you win your conference great, but everyone pays attention to tourney time.wobycat wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 12:36 amBetter question.. who took the picture and uploaded It here. I get it. It’s cocky but honestly who cares? I’m sure they were made specifically for their undefeated regular season.
Yeah the intentional foul on Holden I didn't mind at all. I was at that end if the court and honestly I think he grabbed him to help brace his fall. He got caught in the air and looked like he was going to hit awkward and hard on his left side. When he grabbed his shoulders it slowed down his fall, it was the right call but I just thought it was more instinctual then intentional because he was falling pretty awkward.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 3:14 am Great game tonight by both teams. Missed it but was able to listen to the play by play. Great job done by Mark Williams and Dennis DeCamp on WNXT.
They both went crazy when they called the intentional foul on Holden. Could have been a huge momentum swing but Alexander couldn’t take advantage of it.
I’ve not seen or heard a team shoot well from behind the arc and that was the case again tonight. IMO I still think it is because of the college 3 point line. It is at least 6 inches or more back from the HS line and these kids are squaring up behind it and it is causing problems. I would venture to guess that close to 70% of the missed 3’s tonight the announcers said “short” on every one of them. It’s hard to look down at what line you are behind and get yourself in shooting mode.
Can someone explain to me how a player 6’10” is not dominating both offensively and defensively at the HS level!!! How does said player only touch the ball 8 times in a game? Like someone said earlier he has to get around 12-15 or more touches in the lane. Come on down to Wheelersburg son. I can bet you get more than 8 touches in a District final. Be a nice returning lineup next year for Burg with Terry, McCorkle, Truitt and Miller plus one more. Add in the players from Burg’s JV squad and they would be very deep and strong next year.

Yes it was the correct call it was intentional but you said what maybe I didn't do a good job of explaining, I think he done it to avoid possible injury. He was in a really awkward position as he was going down,so he just reached out and grabbed the guys shoulders as he was going down. This slowed down his momentum and sort of turned him to land flat. I don't think it was intentionally trying to foul but more of a defensive move from possibly injury. Hope that makes sense, I didn't mind him take that foil just because it probably keep from injury. It's an intentional foul when you reach out, intentionally and pull the guy down from the shoulder area, both shoulders mind you, which is what he did. Neither guy got hurt and big man hit both free throws. The way he was positioned I was sitting there thinking no no, because he was going to hit at a bad angle.yabbadabbadoo wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 11:35 amgreygoose wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 9:15 amYeah the intentional foul on Holden I didn't mind at all.

I'm confused! You said it was the right call but then you go and say Holden was trying to brace his foul, so what makes that an intentional foul???
There are intentional fouls in the last few seconds that are way worse than that play. I've seen players grab another player from behind by the jersey to stop the clock. That is an intentional foul but it never gets called.
Watching the video of it Holden could have gotten hurt bad if he had not of grabbed Terry

It’s my understanding that it doesn’t necessarily have to be a non play on the ball. It could also be excessive contact can be called intentional. F1 in college. But again, it’s interrupting by each official and sometimes from game to game of that makes any sense. This is what I’ve been told...JTEK wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 12:14 pm I thought the intentional foul call was correct. My question for officials out there does there have to be some kind of intent to hurt someone to make that call. I thought there were a couple where Alexander wrapped up Holden and no intentional was called. The fouls that weren’t called intentional didn’t look as bad but they were exactly the same basically wrapping your arms around shooters arms so he can’t get a shot up.
Ok then the question would be why? Someone took a photo of the team on the way out. I doubt it was a coach. The intentional foul was horrendous. Beyond bad. Holden did not intentionally go into the air just so he could grab the other player for fear of hitting the floor. This was a common foul.greygoose wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 9:08 amThey said who uploaded it.

Not nearly as bad as when they painted something on the hill in front of the school a few years back in football then went out and got embarrassed by valley for the 3rd year in a rowwobycat wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 2:11 pmOk then the question would be why?

You mean will they wear them if they get beat by harvest prep? The shooting shirt is still relevant until they get beat. I just find it strange that someone took the picture to upload here to take a jab at the players. I would get it more if it was a group of fans wearing the shirts.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 2:25 pmI wonder if they will wear those vs Harvest Prep
My favorite is Africentric Girls Basketball
Sucks you have to browse threads of teams that are still alive in the postseason to make unnecessary and ignorant comments because your squad has already been bounced from postseason play. Also, no team goes 25-0 by accident or by having only one talented player. The Pirates are solid top to bottom.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 2:17 pm This game was Alexander was probably the better team but Holden was just so much better. Sucks he’s by himself on Burg
I liked he changed up his offense during the game. Couldn’t drive since Terry is 6’10 so he started hitting mid range shots
