no one was dissing elisha being able to dunk. One person was just trying to compliment the poor bl team that lost on the effort of the kid that dunked the ball. Then SV fans persisted on saying it wasnt as good as the ones they did, then someone mentioned they would hope with the size jc had they could outdunk elisha and i reminded them that size is never an excuse (just ask nate robinson who is 5'9 and he won the slam dunk contest by jumping over someones head). No one ever said elisha wasnt a good player or that his points didnt count stop defending a position that wasnt attacked. why do people insist on constantly making the poor team out to be god's gift to basketball. yes they are very good. let them play and earn their way to state or even a state championship, stop acting like they should just walk past everyone and be handed a trophy. they may have an "easy" time but im sure none of the players would agree that they dont even have to try in region. if they didnt try at all, they would lose
I AM NOT BASHING SV's TEAM NOR PLAYERS only questioning the insane defense that no one else is worthy to be mentioned for a good effort even after their season is over. Please compliment BL on their efforts, mentally if they read anything on this site, they probably thought they should give up before the game started.
here you go:

How is it dissing BL saying a dunk wasn't clean? I think everyone on here knows that Head can dunk 10 times better than Elisha. A couple of people just stated that Head's dunk wasn't clean, which it wasn't. It was still nice though and Head is one of the best dunkers, if not the best dunker, in the region. Betsy Layne has a good young team, but the Valley team is just an exception for this region this year. These boys have worked their butts off to get to this point and deserve for people not to want to see them lose just because they are a clear cut favorite. Not a soul on here said other teams aren't worth mentioning. I think Johnson Central is the consensus pick for the 2nd best team in region and you never know what may happen on Saturday. Do Valley's boys think they'll beat JC? I'd say so, but there are probably some nerves about the game and I'm sure they don't think they'll win by 40.

SV has never won a game at state, so if they are blessed enough to win this region, it will be a big accomplishment if they are just able to win one game at state. Would they be satisfied with that, though? I don't think so because they have set their goals high. They may never reach them, but at least they believe in themselves and have worked hard enough to give themselves a fighting chance.
