Elder statesman 22 Report Share Posted February 24 41 minutes ago, TheDuke said: UVA-Wise game times today 2pm Eastside-Honaker girls 3:30 Chilhowie-Honaker boys 7:30 Wise-Ridgeview girls Why not have them all back to back??? This should be a very good lineup for any basketball fan. Eastside/Honaker girls should be a great game. Eastside has played well, possibly better after losing Hammons, and should match up well with Honaker. Carter and Clay are a tough duo. I think this one comes down to Clay/Nolley. Whichever of these ladies has the better game should push their team to the win. Honaker boys have had some really good victories this season and appear to be playing well at the right time. Chilhowie may have surprised some people but they are a solid program and should be able to make this a close game. Wise and Ridgeview may be a dogfight. Ridgeview is deeper but they haven't been able to slow down McCamis/Looney this season. Everyone is expecting a Wise victory but Ridgeview has nothing to lose. If they come out on fire, it could come down to the Wise defense to win this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bcats 8 Report Share Posted February 24 20 hours ago, Gridiron60 said: What a shocker, right? I’m guessing Virginia High wanted to play at home , don’t blame them & Graham was a no go for that. Maybe they could have done rock, paper, scissors , best two of three…I mean there are worse ways to decide a neutral venue 😂 I don't know too much about Martinsville or Gretna but I did a little digging an found Rayshaun Logan he plays for Gretna had 22pts and 20 rebounds in the same game against Altavista he's probably their Mr do it all. Gretna on a 9 game winning streak an a 3pt loss to parry mccluer another 3pt loss to wchs whoever they are from being on a 13 game win streak, maybe they could had some key injuries at the beginning of the season but they've been rolling as of late, it's hard to judge not knowing a whole lot about Martinsville and Gretna just on surface between VA High, Graham, Martinsville and Gretna, Gretna might be the favorites to go against that beast up north Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdfan 101 Report Share Posted February 24 Logan is only a soph. He's about 6'5". He played qb and wide receiver on the football team at Gretna. The whole team played football and it took them awhile to get going this season. All this according to the Gretna scorekeeper. Coming from a Dogs fan, Gretna is very athletic, good defensively and well coached. They like to play in transition and are always looking to push the ball up the court. Martinsville was able to control the tempo for the most part but we were unable to hit enough shots to pull it out. It was a 2 point game with a minute to go last night but Gretna scored the last 6 points for the win. Bcats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way that player got the shot off in 2 seconds. He bobbled the ball, hit his hands, the ball fell to the floor, he dribbled it and shot it, There’s no way he did all that in 2 seconds. Refs didn’t check the clock. They ran off the floor and fans ran on the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comegetsum 18 Report Share Posted February 25 I agree no way on the shot. But graham should’ve ended that game in regulation.

I know he got it off but that has nothing to do with time should have already ran out. Yeah, crazy keeping Disibbio on bench entire 4thQ.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Author Report Share Posted February 25 I watched the VH vs Graham game. Back and forth. What you can make of this game in my opinion is the ability of VH to close the distance or widen the distance at the end of the quarters. At end of first, big three point to get it within 4 when they were down 7. A team that has just a touch of momentum or a "good break" in football and basketball at the end of quarters or halves often is a precursor to what will happen late in the game. I've seen this a hundred plus times. It doesn't always hold true, but it does far more than most of the time. In the college or NFL football, watch how many times the team that scores right before the half in a very close game ends the game in similar fashion. Same in basketball. A team down 10 with 40 seconds left that incredibly cuts it to 4, or a team only up 2 or 3 points for most of the half then goes on a little run in the last 30 seconds and ends the half up 7. It's amazing how games often end for whatever reason, the same way. With that written, VH got a lot of calls man. No, the refs did NOT cheat, but it die seem that VH got a huge chuck of 50-50 cause, especially in the first 4 minutes of the game. The shot at the end was a late clock start. The clock started late. Ball did leave hands before the expiration, but the clock started late. Still, it was Virginia High's ability to finish each quarter and in the end, VH's ability to steal the in bounds pass. VH continued to seemingly do great things in the final few seconds of each quarter. All 4 left are close. Any of the 4 can win it, even the road teams.

I watched it on nfhs and went back and started a clock on my phone with two seconds and it took him about 2.5-3 seconds to get the shot off. Granted that’s probably not the most efficient way of doing it but still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clock operator watches the referee who gives the signal to start the clock. In high school games, there is always a bit of lag due to this. No replay like in college/pros for review. sixcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
