A big that can handle the ball is a tough matchup…OG used that with Card in 2014 when they made their run to the title…which allowed Kretchman and Adams to work open in some sets.

Oak Grove had a 6'10'' kid, wow

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 relegated to just the lane…if that was the case we wouldn’t have players like Durant, James, Towns, etc.

We do have to remember we are talking about Class B basketball in ND. Not to mention, this team has a very good point guard who will be playing D1 Juco basketball. I tend to agree with the posters who suggest to let the point guard bring it up. Gives the bigs more time to get in place for offensive rotation and makes even more sense with the shot clock and their ability to control tempo with their bigs. Plus, if point guard breaks down pressure, will automatically create 5 on 4 with ability to dish off on penetration. With a big bringing it up, 9 out of 10 times his defender will just be waiting for him. Guess there is a benefit that way, not as much pressure bringing ball up. Once again, am only talking ND Class B basketball, would have a different opinion on other levels of basketball. Admittedly old school guy here.

90% of NDPreps would rather have Macauley Young then Joe Hurlburt.

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.[
He has no left hand, needs to work on that in the off sesson to play JUCO

If Powers Lake is undefeated going into the State tournament would they get seeded?

It's possible. If they run the table they would be in the conversation for the 5 seed IMO. If the favorites in each region win I would seed them this way:

1. FWM
2. Enderlin or Kindred
3. North Border
4. Ellendale
5. Powers Lake
6. Bismarck Shiloh
7. Beulah
8. Region 6 champ
