Anderson struggles against Mercer County. Claunch goes down in the third quarter with knee, but returns to play limited. With Claunch at 100% in second half Anderson loses.

And if Anderson doesn't have 3 players throwing up its not even close.



See, I can play that game too.

If the above post is true then Anderson is overrated. Mercer is a good team but not Top 20 caliber team.

Box Score with Minutes please.....if they were sick they would not have played. I was there big guy and if you play Mercer again you lose. Face it, Anderson is over rated.

What? You can't play sick?

I was just pointing at that I can make excuses as well. It was a nice win against a solid team, especially under the circumstances

[lillianhidgepork]

From looks of it all Anderson sick except McKee. But they all played, I saw it with my own eyes. 16 points at the half are you kididng me? #2 in state? McKee preseason all region though.

I saw Anderson play live tonight and they cannot stay within 10 of Whitley.

[magicfan217]

Lol I thought Cann was the only player Anderson had? At least that's what you said the other day.

[lillianhidgepork]

I was just going off what I was hearing. I wanted to see her play in person. I guess she was one that was sick? No offense to her, I have seen her put up big numbers on the scores. She seemed like she felt bad tonight.

[lillianhidgepork]

After watching tonight I think Anderson gonna have trouble winning 8th.

[HowYaKnow]

Hey Porky, stay up to pace. Anderson is #3 not #2.

[lillianhidgepork]

The way they played tonight they are three in their district.

[magicfan217]

She was....but was able to gut it out.

Bottom line is that its hard to judge any player or team off of one game (good.or bad) because any number of factors play into one single game.

I don't like making excuses, just pointing out that over the course of the season any number of factors can work for or against you. Sometimes a key player rolls an ankle, sometimes key players are sick....sometimes those work in your favor and sometimes they work against you.

Great teams find a way to preserve and play their best basketball come.tournament time.
