LPD Championship

Wise does have kids that can shoot but other than Clark not many can drive to the basket and create their own shots. They rely on Clarks penetration to get open shots.

But I thought Wise did a great job on the PV bigs. Wise is very small but they kept PVs post players outside guarding kids on defense which kept them from crashing the boards as hard as they would like. PV kept Vernon on 32 to keep him out of foul trouble but it let Wise get a ton of offensive boards.
And the depth was HUGE. PV only had 8 kids there with 1 sick. There was no way to keep them fresh with Wises full court D and pressure.
but PV did a great job to stay in it and they kept any other Wise player from really getting going. Offense was very hard to come by both ways, but PV was able to penetrate more in the second half but didnt hit many shots.

and inconsistent is the perfect word. PV got some calls in the first half but it was all Wise in the second. and getting the calls after halftime never hurts a team haha.

I really just wish I could go to an LPD basketball game and not even notice the refs, I really do.

pvfan pointed ya out to me during the game but it was just too **** hot to try and make my way over and say hello hah, it was like a f'n pressure cooker in there tonight

You are one of the few people that don't hold a grudge. I get excited during the game but when it's over it's over. Some people fail to realize that; at the end of the day, it really is just a game.

It's all only in good fun. I worry about life,whether my loved ones are safe...things that REALLY matter. I love sports and am passionate about it,but at the end of the day,there's so much bigger and more to living that a scoreboard.

I thought all in all that it was a well played game on both sides. Congrats to Kelly, nice season. Both coaches seemed to behave last night, which always isn't the case. I though both teams showed good sportsmanship towards each other, considering the rivalry of this year. The officials called a decent game. Nothing huge missed. LPD looks like a more physical game to try and call based on the style of the LPD teams. Overall good night of basketball.

I would not say good sportsmanship overall, there was one incident from a player that I thought was very unsportsmanlike but its over and done with now.
