did i just see andrew adkins name on second team? [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

i agree...just switch adkins with pinkston and pinkston with mitchell

[cvcgrad]

On my list, yes.

But in all fairness, I think the players on my "second" list are good players just not on the level of players like Anderson and Coleman.

There were several others who did well this year like Miller (JJK), Jennings (Coeburn), Slone (Clintwood), Bolling (Pound), Brickey (Appalachia), etc.

so r u saying adkins is not on the same level as Anderson and Coleman?

[cvcgrad]

Not in my opinion.

It's only my opinion, but having watched Anderson and Coleman in district play, as well as several out-of-district games, specifically Anderson in games against some very good teams like Dobyns Bennett, Unicoi County, etc, I think the gap widens considerably after Anderson and Coleman.

well im my opinion i think adkins is well on the same level as coleman and anderson

[cvcgrad]

Absolutely nothing wrong with differing opinions.

I haven't seen that level of play from Adkins or anyone else in the district this year for that matter, but I agree that AA is a good player.

I agree with cvcgrad. Adkins is a very good ballplayer, but I wouldn't put him in the same category as Anderson or Coleman - especially Anderson.

If your playing a lot of teams like around here who are terrible on offense, it makes your "D" look good, play a team with decent offense and see how that looks. Watch and see how the "D" we all see here plays out in the region and state tourny, your not going to do much winning scoring 30pts a game.

[/ QUOTE ] Some of these teams would have been run off the court by Paye and Wilson in their heyday. Sorry, the way the refs go for mugging a player on offense has turned this into "who uses their fouls the best" some nights. Guess why GC thrives with 15 players, 75 fouls to give? And I just ain't real big into "ba ba ba ba ba " defense.

You give Adkins the same support that these other boys have and then tell me he wouldnt be on the same level. The kid has got some skills.
