Simple fix if they get in there and bang unless they don’t like contact again. I would like to see them in the state tournament.

Watched Enderlin vs. Hankinson last night. No 3 attempts from the big guys and they seemed to welcome the contact last night. A scrappy Hankinson team got off to an early lead with some pressure and early 3's, then Enderlin made a huge effort to feed it inside to Joe H. in the lane and got out to a big lead. The Hurlburt bros. are tough to stop when they are down low, and I believe all of Joe's points came in the lane or on 2nd chance rebounds. They will be a tough out if this trend continues. Defensively, Hankinson couldn't get many good looks and Enderlin had several blocks. Enderlin only played 6, so depth could be an issue in a tournament but they are definitely a talented bunch. CC will challenge with their athleticism, depth, and outside shooting; and a much deeper Kindred matches up very well with the Eagles. I do think it will be Kindred/Enderlin in the R1 final and Enderlin will represent R1 if they continue to play more in the paint.

Enderlin has NO bench...their JV got dominated by Hankinson last night.
I have no problem J. Hurlburt taking some 3s as he is their best outside shooter but, yes, a majority of his shots should come within the lane. Bartholomay has become a solid outside threat as well.

You just have to be a jerk with so many of your posts.
A big kid, height does not matter, that can handle the ball creates problems…all I was saying. Just cause a player is 6’ 10” doesn’t mean he is real gated to just the lane…if that was the case we wouldn’t have players like Durant, James, Towns, etc.

Plain and simple, Joe shouldn't bring the ball up. Any quick little guard loves this matchup for D and when Joe squats and spins it's usually going the other way. If the D was as big as Joe I wouldn't say otherwise, but that's not the case.

I'm surprised that Coach Kraft hasn't reached out to you for your expert opinion.

How do you know he doesn't?

You really believe this? Just because basketball strategy is discussed on here, a ND Class B basketball forum, doesn't mean anybody is being detrimental to the young man. Just differing opinions on the game. 2 cents.

It was sarcasm. ND Preps seems to be enamored with post play though.

The FWM vs Bismarck Shiloh game was an interesting one and I can't decide which take away is closer to reality.
1. Judging through the first 3 quarters it appears that the field is closer to FWM (and Enderlin IMO) than originally thought
OR
2. FWM is getting bored and when they decide to turn it on it's lights out for everyone else in the state (besides Enderlin IMO).
