Recruiting Updates

[tee1222]

Yet again, Battle taking it hard to the hole. Looks like he took off a few feet inside the foul lane to dunk over someone. Missed but fouled. Really gutsy play by Battle. Yakwe with a block coming back the other way. Aiken hits another to get the lead back for Team Scan.

 

[tee1222]

Beilein, Jay Wright among others in the house. Thought I saw Brey as well. Almost all coaches seem to be playing with their smart phones as usual.

 

[tee1222]

Great move and lay in from Cheick. TB just missed an assignment on the box out. Little flustered still. Just made up for some there by ripping a tough defensive board out over a Houston player. Battle hit another three to take back the lead but it was answered on the other end. 53-51 Houston, under 9 to play.

 

[tee1222]

Bryant gets to the paint from the high post and makes a great pass to Diallo for an easy dunk. Bryant with another rebound on the defensive end.

 

[tee1222]

Battle good thought to put the ball on the floor, create an open look but missed it. Bryant collects another defensive board. Bryant with a jam home to take back the lead, 55-53.

 

[tee1222]

We sometimes give these local play by plays a hard time, but I like this one. Had a line on a player named Garth, something to the effect of "And Party on Garth, for three". It worked well.

 

[tee1222]

Battle unconscious three. All net. Gives them a three point lead, 5 left. Hunter from Houston hits a deep two, foot on the line. 21 points thus far for Hunter.

 

[tee1222]

Looks like Battle was robbed, clean play but refs bailed out Houston at a critical point in the game.

 

[tee1222]

Again Bryant delivers a delicate entry pass to Diallo with good position, was fouled on the floor. Both teams play a zone. Have to say, when he's on, TB is a great zone buster.

 

[tee1222]

Shot clock at one, Battle hits a prayer off the glass from deep. Bryant tee'd up and I don't mean that in a nice way.
TB has 4 personals, and that technical was a huge mistake just after they took a three point lead. 2 shots and a 1 and 1 after. Ridiculous. But he deserved that, might have mouthed off displeasure to the refs.

 

[tee1222]

Battle has 21, bunch of threes already.

 

[tee1222]

Diallo spins to the right side and banks in a bunny. 63-61 Scan. 1:35 left. Good one, even though a little slower than the other night.

 

[tee1222]

Battle misses a deep try, that would have given them plenty of buffer. Houston back the other way turns it over. Scan ball, 43 seconds left.

 

[tee1222]

Vandy, Indiana, Nova also in the house.

That's one of my biggest concerns about TB. Love his passion but sometimes he lets his emotions get the best of him and it's definitely not a good look to do that in a room full of D1 coaches.

 

[tee1222]

Bryant held onto the ball in the backcourt, fouled but not in the bonus yet. Diallo then gets fouled and to the line. Hits one, 3 point lead.

 

[tee1222]

Cheick, very strong rebound and fouled again. 10 rebounds so far.

 

[Francis03]

Vandy, Indiana, Nova also in the house.

Hopkins is there. Red is watching Diagne on the other court. They're in a tight game as well against another team from Texas.

Yup. Almost. Too. Much. Heart. Batman.

Yeah, he's got to chill at times, refs just looking for that and it costs them 4 points on that tee and one. Costly.

 

[tee1222]

Aiken fouled with 9 seconds left. Hits one. 66-61 final score. Scan wins another tight one. Game was tighter than the score. In fact, this was the biggest lead of the game, at the buzzer.

Edit: cheick that. Might have been 64-61, score inconsistent between announcers and highschoolcube.

You were correct the first time, it was 66-61. Semi's are now set for tomorrow on ESPNU. Team Scan will play Team Penny, which has the Lawson brothers. NJ Playaz(Diagne) will play Boo Williams, which has top 20 2016 big man Bam Bam Adebayo. I'll let you guys know the times of each game when it gets release.

I knew I liked that announcer for good reason. Accuracy
Should be a good one tomorrow. Look for Bryant to get back on track, but with this team, who knows? Bunch of different ways they can hurt you.
