BMTSoulja1 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Posted November 6, 2015 Just messy I'm going to miss those days when I would pump up Central to Souljah...please.... Too much mental toughness to succumb to foolishness.... Quote
ST413 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Posted November 6, 2015 I completely agree...Hmmm.... And you did that... That last sentence there shows a weakness in that mental toughness or some tired legs! Quote

DeuceSixSuited Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Board is a little dead so who would your preseason picks be? PG??SG??SF??PF??C???????IDK as far as the exact positions because like someone else pointed out...I dont think we have any true PG's. But give me these 5 and we will beat any other 5 in the areaArnoldGrubbsPearsonAtwood7-3 Center from Central TxHoops and DXTR 2 Quote
AggiesAreWe Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 I was told by some that the '7"3 kid struggled in the Central scrimmages at Baytown this past Saturday. Quote

BMTSoulja1 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 All be say she say. AAW said he heard. Had he said he actually saw him, then I'd believe it... Just keep in mind that this kid will be asked to alter/block shots and grab boards. If he gives us points, that will be a bonus. we have scorers already. Quote

Just keep in mind that this kid will be asked to alter/block shots and grab boards. If he gives us points, that will be a bonus. we have scorers already. My info came from a coach who was there. This is the text I received:The 7'3 kid has a ways to go. He won't be a difference maker for Central. With him in they tried to go 2-3 zone which is not what Central does best. When they went man with him, you can iso him on the perimeter. He can't stay with who he is guarding. He will help but won't be the difference maker that some are saying on the board. You will see.

We (Central fans) aren't the ones expecting him to be a difference maker. He's 7'3". We are ok with rebounds and altered or blocked shots. The difference makers will be TJ or Nigal. I guess the ones that expect Chris to be a difference maker or fans outside of the Central organization.... Quote
TxHoops Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 He is 7'3". To say he won't be a "difference maker" is absurd IMO. He would be a difference maker on any court, in any game he participates. And I have seen him with my own eyes. The kid moves very well and is steadily improving. And right now, I would take him over some of the other bigs in the district I have seen several times with my own eyes. Then again, I guess it's how you define "difference maker." When you have Pearson and Atwood onthe same team, on the same floor, the difference may not be as "glaring." Those are two kids are that are ridiculous with the skill sets they have at their sizes. Soulja is 100 percent correct - the blocked shots and rebounds are overlooked parts of the game that make a huge difference. Maybe it's just me, but I would define that as "difference making." ;) BMTSoulja1 1 Quote
TxHoops Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 IDK as far as the exact positions because like someone else pointed out...I dont think we have any true PG's. But give me these 5 and we will beat any other 5 in the areaArnoldGrubbsPearsonAtwood7-3 Center from Central That is a solid list. I said something about an underrated player in another thread but then I wondered if Grubbs can be considered underrated? (And Saladin from HJ.). There was a split MVP in their district last year that included neither one of them. I might have split my vote if I had one but it would have been on those two. Quote
