Subject: Re: Lafayette & This League Author: VoB [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 11:15:12 01/19/06 Thu In reply to: eric... 's message, "Re: Lafayette & This League" on 08:06:24 01/19/06 Thu One thing that must be noted.....Thomas-Hamilton-Simmons...may be the best STARTING backcourt.....although I think Lee-Bettencourt-Badmus....is at least as talented, but you can't give HC that title because they don't have the best backcourt in total. Who on HC matches Vegotsky and Griffen? At the end of the game this past Saturday...HC had nothing left in the tank...NOTHING...because they are forced to play with 3 starters. Their frontcourt is an embarassment and they have nobody off the bench. You can't win in the long run with 3 players. Bucknell has 8 or 9 kids who can all play quality minutes. That is easily what seperates them from anyone else in the league. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

However, don't forget that guard Pat Doherty was one of the top frosh in the league last year, at least at the Griffin level. As a matter of fact, there was a group on the HC board last year who argued that Doherty should be starting ahead of Torey Thomas, and he did start 9 games at the point while Thomas came off the bench. Unfortunately for HC, Doherty is out for the year with a foot injury and thus their backcourt depth is non-existent. As for frontcourt depth, they had two players, who may have been pretty good prospects, transfer out for varying personal reasons. I forget the names but I'm sure some HC fan knows them. I'm not sure how good they would have been, but it does help account for the big-time lack of depth. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
