i seriously can't believe what I am reading. The boy frekaing quit on his team. DO NOT compare this boy to Elisha. Elisha has been carrying this team since his 8th grade season, and he has not let up on them once. Elisha was top 2 in the region as far as talent, no one even brought up Clark, why? Don't quit, give some other people the ball when you're on the floor, and then we'll talk about you being compared to Elisha.

Everyone in this area knows Elisha is a rare talent. I mean come on, freaking Billy Donovan is attending one of his games in Florida and will be teaching him at the basketball camp. There is not a comparison between these two players, flat line.

I was giving my honest opinion of these two players, and who are you to question gatlin for quitting the team. I will tell you right now it was not his fault for leaving the team, and anyone in his situation should of quit also. Billy Donovan will be attending many games in the Flordia tourny, and one player does not make the team so he is defenitly not there to just watch Elisha. But again I love to watch both these kids play, but just in my opinion i would take gatlin. If gatlin wasnt in pikeville's system and was allowed to take over a game he would be getting a lot more talk. But Elisha has been in the mainstream with AAU and with Valley playing in big touny's. Gatlin has so much raw talent, but he is not allowed to really express it at Pikeville, but Elisha is in the perfect situation for his skill set. By no means am i degrading Mr. Justice becuase he was arguably the second best player in the 15th last year, i just think gatlin is a better player. Maybe im wrong and I take scoring into account too much, but only time will tell. I hope both young me have a great future in basketball and represent EKY the best the can.
