E.Z.DOES.IT 15 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 I would love to hear what people think about this one. This is a really interesting game that no one is talking about. I'm thinking Richlands needs to hit those 3 pointers tonight! It is tonight right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wave316 64 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Tonight is right. Union by 12 in my opinion. Playing at home...but Union may be tired after playing at Battle. So they need to be careful. E.Z.DOES.IT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Richlands won't be tired from playing Virginia High??? Dream Team rolls in this one. They are heating up, hitting on all cylinders right now...they might put up 90 on Union...

GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 90 on Union? So they are better than the team that beat Union and won the Arby's Classic? They might be, then again they may not be. We'll see. If Richlands is hitting their threes, yes, Richlands wins. If not, it will still be a close game. BTW, next year is THE year for Richlands...

RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 I think Union wins this one. Richlands keeps it close for 3 periods then Union pulls away with it late. Something to the tune of say...74-59. I'd like to see this one though...id say it will be a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, it will still be a close game. BTW, next year is THE year for Richlands... "THE" year to live up to the hype... Graham will have a group of sophomores and juniors that will compete quite well against them. The future of Graham basketball looks very bright.

tbgfan 856 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 FINAL RICHLANDS 64 UNION 65 I followed the game on the bluetornado twitter site and it was a nail biter. Hats off to our Blues--they made it a game. Return match is next Saturday at Richlands and www.wgth.net is scheduled to carry the game. Bigrhsfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan4VT 4,557 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Just got back. Firstly, Hey West12aaa, suck it. Your hatred of Richlands is honestly just annoying at this point. We don't play Lee. I don't think we've ever played TW. Get over yourself. Now, on to my thoughts. 1. Wow. That school is NICE. First time I'd been inside and it truly is amazing. Y'all Union fans/students have something special in that place. 2. Union is as good as advertised. They are long, tall, and fast. In the first half Noaks ran wild, but I think we figured out how to defend him in the second half better. He's not ever gonna be stopped, but I felt we did a good job of containing. I'm super proud of the way the boys played in the second half. At one point they were down 15 or 16 points and fought all the way back to lead the game with just under 2 minutes left. Refs were just plain horrible both ways. They never called anything with any consistency. Richlands would drive and get a charge, then the next time go do the exact same thing and get a blocking foul on Union. Made no sense. Union did seem to get rattled several times. Number 11 kicked at Balls head when he was on the ground once and there was no call. Union also had a technical on thier bench. There were a few skirmishes along the way and Barnett and Fuller got into once and got double fouls. Overall, Richlands is a much better team than what most give us credit for. And Union is absolutely the real deal. Richlands now takes tomorrow off before playing 10 games in 12 days. Monday- @ Lebanon Tuesday- Chilhowie @ Emory Wednesday- Twin Valley Friday- @ Tazewell Saturday- Union Tuesday- Graham Wednesday- @ Va. High Thursday- @ Abingdon Friday- Bluefield Richlands still has chances to improve and beat some good teams in Graham, Union, and Bluefield before the SEC conference tournament.

RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 10 games in 12 days will be a miserable stretch...no matter who your playing. 3 games in 4 days is enough to really drain a team. Don't sleep on Abingdon either.... They played solid tonight against GC. Much better than the first time when GC played them. If they could have hit half their free throws they very likely would have walked away with a win tonight. They really hustle and get after it.

Ryan4VT 4,557 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 That last week they literally play 4 games in 4 days. Starting with Graham and ending with Bluefield. This will be a definitive stretch for this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West12aaa 99 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Ahahahahaha But I was wrong, oh well a loss is a loss. You will barely move in the rankings due to previous games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan4VT 4,557 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Who cares about rankings? Just play the damn games and it will all sort itself out in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 I feel like its going to get interesting in the next 2 weeks. Between Union, Graham, Richlands, GC, and possibly Ridgeview.... It's hard to tell what will happen. Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to tell what will happen. Agreed. I haven't seen GC, but I feel like any of these five can beat any of the others. It will be fun.

RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Well I've not seen Richlands or Graham...but I can speak for GC in the sense that if they play their "A game" they have a chance to win it all....and the same goes for Union. If GC plays sloppy like they did tonight they could lose to just about anyone in the MD. The biggest case of Jekyl and Hyde I've ever seen... Especially with the amount of talent that's on the team. It seems like other teams such as Union and Richlands are really starting to gel right now and GC is sputtering more than they were early on in the season. Wouldnt be suprised to see Ridgeview, Daniel Boone, and Union really give GC a thrashing when they play next time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH31 2,532 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 I think anytime richlands and union play a sporting event picking Union by 1 point would be a smart bet GoBearsGo and wave316 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
