RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 Yea they kept him under wraps. He was somewhat out of control I thought. Has a decent shot but not someone I would expect to score over 15 pts on a decently solid team. At least he didn't seem like it....maybe he had an off night at GC.

Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 I think part of his problem is that he tried to 1-up Mac every time down the court. I'm sorry, but I don't think there's any player in NETN or SWVA that's gonna match what McClung does on the court. Mays got caught up in not being out done which made him take some stupid fade away shots with someone up in his grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Yea Mac was in his head pretty bad. The battle back and forth battle between Mac and the PG from KC last night was interesting to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 At this point in 2A in the West I'd have to go with..  1.  Gate City 2.  Martinsville 3.  Dan River 4.  Graham 5.  Richlands  4 and 5 may switch.  Would like to see how they match up with each other.  Graham's defensive pressure is relentless.  However, Richlands is bigger and has a more physical presence.  If Richlands can break the press, they will cause Graham problems.  Graham can also get out in transition easily and are a very unselfish team.  I saw these guys when they played in JV and thought they would be a special group because of how they share the ball and force turnovers.  Morgan will be missed... I think he returns in mid-january or so.... but Graham is pretty tough to beat with basically 4 guards and a center on the court.  They fly around and get in the passing lanes.  Like I said, however a team with good size and the ability to break the press will give them problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixcat 2,942 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Watched a few minutes of basketball practice at Galax yesterday afternoon while waiting for my daughters band concert to begin. They may not win a game! Â I didn't see a single player over 5'-9" tall and no seniors. I honestly believe the JV team could beat the varsity head to head. Galax lost to Pulaski 72-20. Failed to score a single point in both the 2nd and 4th quarters. Â Galax trailed 43-4 at halftime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverRat24 274 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Good Lorde....All kinds of nonsense happening on the hardwoods this year already. I think Battle ends up second in the MD this year with Union close behind them. Union by all rights should be 2nd with their talent though.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Union goes on the road and handles Lebanon pretty well,winning by 15 points (well 14, 55-41). Â This Bears team is the epitome of bipolar. Losses to (a good but not quite great) Eastside and mediocre TN High but wins over East and handling Lebanon on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 ...in girls basketball? Yes. Â Lol. Â Interested in seeing how the three CMC teams do in Gatlinburg this week. Â We certainly got the toughest first round draw I believe with Elizabethton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beamerball 566 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Looks like they have dropped a few games already this year. And it appears someone thinks they're playing Ridgeview Christian.

Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 GC girls have played some decently tough opponents in TN High, East, and Boone who is really stout in my book. But I still don't expect GC's girls to make any noise in swva this year. No true scorers on the team. They didn't score the last 7 minutes of the 2nd qtr in their game today.

I do not think it is off "invite" basis rather than if you got the cash you can come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
