Funny but very true.
Pugh could play some good D though.

I dont think there is anything funny or true at all with that statement. Pugh may have been the only true team player on the floor last year. It takes an unselfish team player to play defense. And a selfish player in most cases is the one who generally are only concerned with the scorebook. Mark it down now that Paintsville will be less of a TEAM without Pugh. Landon Slone may be the worst thing that has ever happened to Paintsville High School basketball, regardless of if he averages 70 points a game. His arrival has seemed to have been nothing but a total distraction to the Paintsville team.

Obviously there was not good chemistry, but did anyone ever stop to think it was Slone who was the jealous one and not Pugh. The times that I witnessed Slone last year he was hardly an unstoppable player, but he was a player that had problems with stopping anyone else.

If Pugh doesn't play , it is certainly Paintsville's loss.
