Belfry Wins
05-19-2006, 06:20 PM
Belfry will still have an excellent back court also. Jamie Case is a very good player. Loosing Maynard does hurt though. But they have some guys that will take up the slack and step it up. Belfry will still be a run and gun type team this year though and be pretty good.

Shelby Valley they will have everyone from last year but Mitchel Riddle and if Cade Riddle played, I dont know if he did or not

Valley will have a great back-court with the Bryant kid and Jackson returning. Central will have a good one as well. Paintsville would have probably the greatest if Pugh left town. I heard that he might be going to Pikeville for football, wondering if this was true? heard it a while back though

What are you trying to say STAT? Pugh is the best defensive player in this region, why would Paintsville be better if he left.

I've heard so many rumors about Paintsville that it is starting to get absurd. I seriously doubt that Pugh or Slone are going anywhere! They will have to get along though. But in answer to the thread I think that Paintsville, Shelby Valley and Johnson Central will have the best backcourts. That doesn't mean that other teams won't have good backcourts though. But those should be the best IMO.

Why would he be doing that ? He is a Senior and he would have to sit out a year ! Which would lead to Graduation ! He might come to Pikeville to play for Pikeville College !

Well PC idk I guess im not obligated to answer that kind of question, so would someone please smarter than me or who knows a lil bit more about the 15th and what kind player Pugh can be. Im not taking anything away from him yeah hes a great defensive player but not alot of people knows what kind of player he can be. Hopefully some people on here know what Im talking about

They may be the best but will they be able to play together or will they hurt the team chemistry?

wow.....hes an ok player, but he is not one of the top 5 PG in the region...so if hes not one of the top 5, then how can he, and some random dude, constitute the best backcourt in the region??

If left alone to play his game Blake Bundy is by far the best point in the region. He is one of the most team players out there. But if he makes a bad decision, he gets jerked. But he can also be the most dangerous player because of his unpredictabilty. If he has the ball, all you have to do is move your arse a little and he will find you, but be ready for the pass. I have seen some great pointmen in this region, and he could be right there. Just My oppinion though.
Why would you say he is not a top 5 point guard in the region? To be honest, I don't think there is a better one. I know you are thinking Spud, and he is a very good one too....I would put both at the tops of the region.

He is a good player but those two little guards better get bigger if they want to get much better. At their size now they are very limited.

It didn't seem to be too much of a problem last season... In this region of 6'1" centers, size isn't as big of a factor...

IF they can get it together. Last year was supposed to be their year too, they struggled with chemestry. Lets hope they can work things out to where they can play the way they should be able to. I just hope the Paintsville fans dont use youth as an excuse this year like they have the last two.

I find it astonishing just to watch how smart Elisha is on the court. For him to be put in big game situations and still an eighth grader, that is impressive by our region standards today. In previous pick-up games with him, I try my best not to have to guard him because I am afraid he will break my ankles.

How about Johnson Central now with the addittion of Jaryd Crum moving there from Shelodn Clark? Crum and McCarty will be tough to handle.
StillGoing
06-26-2006, 08:23 AM
True, Johnson Central should be tough to handle if Crum is now there. However, I am interested to see if Crum and McCarty can make a smooth transition to playing with each other. We all know that these are two good scorers, but I hope there will be no jealousy between the two of who is scoring the most points. Good luck to Johnson Central during 06-07

Crum and Mccarty are already getting along and I think there will be no problems there.This will free up Mccarty to do what he does best and that is shoot the 3-ball and crash the boards!!! Crum is hands down the best pg in the 15th IMO.He is super fast and can handle the rock.His vision of the court and his ability to run the teams offence is a thing of beauty to behold.The kicker on this team will be a player by the name of Zac Sergent.He will be playing the 4 slot and he can flat out take it to you.Just remember the name and come this fall you will see what I'm talking about.Jesse meeks is a solid player who can shoot lights out!I think JC is a no brainer in the 15th this year,SORRY TIGERS!!!! GO JC!!!!!!!!!! :Cheerlead :PirateSho :1: :Thumbs:

JC is a no brainer??? Just like Paintsville was last year?? You guys that make these "no brainer" or "hands down favorite comments" are awfully bold...considering the the history of this region the past few years..Crum is a nice player but he still has a long way to go developmentally....the times I saw him last year he had trouble against the bigger, more physical guards...I think he will have to get much stronger in order to be able to handle the physical play..also...EVERY time you have a transfer you have chemistry problems...it may not be between Crum and McCarty...but you can guarantee that someone on that team will be unhappy...and if that someone convinces one or two more to be unhappy...you have a problem..

He has a long way to go developmentally? You must have seen a different guy playing or something.He could not be stopped last last year at the pg position.He averaged 15 pts. a game,4.86 assist,2.45 turnorvers.He shot 91% from the free throw line for the season.He has been named to the all district team both years he has been in highschool.If you call this developmentally lacking then I would hate to have to play for you or even have you as a fan of the team I was playing for.:thumpsup:

Well.........
Landon Slone,Jamie McCarty,JD Vanhoose,Shane Grimm,Ethan Johnson,Jamie Case, and Tyler Hamilton are a few who I would rate over Crum........
But if were just talking point-guards I guess he would be on top because he's the only one I can think of.

I was talking about the pg position.If you would have read back a few more post you would have noticed that hoops lover was telling me as a pg Jaryd was not developmentally sound.I just stated I thought he was.As far as your list I say to each his own!IMO I would put Jaryd right there in the mix with all of them.Slone,Grim,and Vanhoose has not done anything special.The other three I know very little about.MCcarty is a solid player but seems to be injury proned.I can't wait till the black and gold comes to your school.Then you and hoops lover can tell me how much Crum is lacking!!! :Thumbs:

Elisha will be one of the top point guards in the region this year even as a freshman. I think the best backcourt will be either Johnson Central or Shelby Valley. Only the season will tell which will be the best, but it will be one of those two...
Cookie Crisp
07-01-2006, 07:10 PM

Justice impressed me during the regionals...He could turn out to be a great one...Reminds me of Mikey Hall when he played as an 8th grader for the raiders..If he turns out half as good of high school player as Mikey Hall he'll be fine but thats who he reminds me of personally.

07-02-2006, 06:32 PM
Again Cards....DID NOT SAY he was developmentally unsound...said he needs to get develop more...ESPECIALLY physically.he has a hard time defending bigger, more physical guards..you need to read a litle closer their partner...said he was a nice player..that needs to develop more...as do ALL nice players...he also needs work defensively...as do MOST players in the 15th region...again..this is my opinion...you have voiced yours...and I have voiced mine...didn't mean to ruffle your feathers...whether they be Cardinal OR Eagle feathers..

07-02-2006, 10:33 PM
I'm saying he is not developmentally behind in no aspect of his game. He can stand to improve,but there is no need to expect me to agree with you about this.I also noticed you posted three times in a row.Can't you post all you had to say at one time?The bottom line is he is just as talented as anybody in the 15th at the pg position end of story.
