Guest BEAVERTAIL Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 it will be the first matchup of three of these two coaches... Honestly I dont know if havens has coached in a game bigger than this... However, Princetons poor frontcourt play, along with miserable bench play will allow the Beavers to win. It amazes me that Ernie Gilliard has his best shooter playing in the post in Justin Jewell. Gilliard tried to do that a few times with hammond last year too. Also, if Princeton tries to play full court man to man on bluefield all night, they are in trouble. JM was beating a few princeton players to the whole all night, so i think we can as well. If PHS goes to the zone, BLU needs better ball movement than before to allow penetration, or they need to improve from long range shooting. Anyways, i think game one of the best of three series will go to Havens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Princeton won't dare play man-to-man against Bluefield. They'll play zone, pack the middle in nice and tight, and force Bluefield to beat them from the outside. Which ever team is able to set the tempo of the game will win.

Bogeavers 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Bluefield was completely horrible on the boards. They need to take an entire practice and work on boxing out. This is the worst game I have ever seen Bluefield play. It was horrible. I am really speechless at this performance. This game was lost by the players and no one else. The refs made a few "questionable" calls, but this was lost on the court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHS85 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Lets not forget free throws. Were we even 50 percent tonight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogeavers 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Yea, I forgot about those. I am not sure how many we messed, but it was horrible. This teams needs to go back to basics. We also had to have at least 20 tos and our first 4 possessions equaled turnovers. We just need to stop trying to show off and do the basic things you have to do win.

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 This was probably the WORST bluefield basketball game I have watched in a long long time...I don't know the exact number but I say we missed a good 15 free throws or more...We had way to many pointless turnovers, and the refs did make some bad calls, but I feel that they made up for some of the calls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmitt 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 WOW! Princeton must have stuck it to Bluefield tonight! I guarantee the blame will go to Havens......Princeton is loaded this year and Bluefield is kind of young it seems. I wished I would have went. I won't miss the next one!

BHS72 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Tonght was not Havens fault. Bluefield doesnt have anyone that can shoot consistently shoot from deep. They missed way too many free throws. And on top of this they were making stupid decisions. Yes the refs were terrible but they shouldnt be able to control a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHS72 10 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I might be wrong, but in my opinion, if bluefield doesnt find a way to hit some deep shots then it is going to be a long year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] No you are correct. It has been a problem of ours for a while now. Not that we haven't had players capable of shooting the ball in the past but we haven't been good enough. Like I said the other day I would like to see our 3 point shooting percentage for each season from the past 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GetMoney55 11 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Bluefield WILL be better prepared the next time these two teams meet up. I guarantee it. Bluefield is not a young team. 4 of their 5 starters are seniors. I wasnt at the game tonight but from what ive read here and what ive heard from people who were there, Bluefield played terrible and it wasnt due to the incredible Tigers team. Our seniors should be playing better. However, they will adjust come next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
