Nubblite vs. Celtics ("bad" junior team) - Nubblies.net Forums

First, every week I will create another message dedicated to our next game. You can post strategies, scouting reports, or whatever you feel needs to be posted about our upcoming game.

Now, I hear that this "bad" junior team isn't so bad. Their two main players appear to be Ben Broadhead who I would love to injure, and Adam Klotz. I see Ben being more of a threat than Klotz.

Ben Brodhead
He likes to pump fake and get you up in the air and then go up and get the easy foul, often times getting the "and 1" play. Stay on your feet and you should be alright. If we put Melvin on him, I think he should be able to shut him down.

Adam Klotz
I don't know how this kid could possibly be one of their best players. I have played with him at the YMCA before and I don't think he's that good. He would definitely have to step it up quite a bit to do a lot of damage to us. He is really short and fairly fast. Stay off of him so that he doesn't drive and I think we should be alright.

I think this team is more of an inside team, because I don't believe any of them are great outside shooters. Give them a bit of room when guarding them on the parameter and we should be alright.

Also, talk to any of the Lumberjacks and see what they say about them. They should be able and hopefully willing to tell us a lot about this team.

We'll (orgazmo, lethal, and i) talk with conley about that Junior team.

I just called them the 'bad' junior team, because they most likely aren't as good as the other junior team.

Melvin on Broadhead: I think that's a perfect idea.

Kyle on Klotz: Short and fast, i think this is the matchup to go with.

I think we can hammer them on the inside and out. We need to know who their big men are though.

Lets start trying to get people to come to the game now, the more the better. BUT, lets not have them on our bench next game. I can honestly say that fuller and fussle's yelling is what got us shooting three's when we should've.

I definately think we should sub more than we did last game.

Lets try more to draw fouls. I had 5 fouls that game, and no one really noticed, but we sure as hell noticed Lenord's 5 fouls. Lets do that again.
Also, we seemed pretty decent on shooting free throws, lets keep working on those.

I agree with all of that Pliedes.
Subbing more is probably a good idea, but people need to be willing to come in when you tell them to.
Also, one more thing about Klotz. Conley says he reminds him exactly of me and he is just about as good as I am. I hope that this isn't true. He also supposedly has a pretty good outside shot.
I think Melvin on Brodhead is a very good idea also.

Alright, from my perspective of watching the last few minutes of their game on Sunday, I would have to say that Brodhead is your only real threat. Trout, Klotz might stand a chance with you, but from what I saw, I think you've got the advantage in that match-up.

Brodhead does have the pump fake, but seriously, how many times can he do that before it's easy as fuck to read him? Melvin should be able and willing to give Brodhead a run for his money.

Conley and the Lumberjacks are correct in saying that those two are the only 'maybe's' for competition. Brodhead is the main obstacle, if we can call him that much.

This should be a better match-up than with the AAO, however, these guys are going to be quicker, which means some of our rebounding maneuvers on Sunday might not work as well. One advantage that we have though is some size. The junior team mostly consists of smaller guys, Brodhead being the only one that could shove his way around with a little more ease.

All in all, should be a good match-up, but something that shouldn't worry us too much. If we keep subbing rotation to a good amount, that'd be a plus as well.

I'm not as much of a technical guy, but this is what I saw, and hopefully it'll help.
