Prep 2Prep Tip Off Grades

[NSBasketball]

Here are my grades based on the games I watched yesterday. (I skipped out for a early dinner during Sheldon vs Army Navy).

Manteca- B+ (Has some work to do but a solid group with great Size and Kenny Wooten)
St Marys- D (Over matched for these type of events)
O'Dowd- C (Definitely a work in progress, good pieces, will improve)
Dublin- C (Not much outside of Falls, beat a struggling O'Dowd. Will struggle vs comp)
Modesto Chrstn- B (Looked out of sync but always good come playoff time)
Folsom- A- (Well coached, great guards. Enough Said)
Newark M- C (Over achieving team)
Woodcreek- B+ (Huge upside)
Moreau- A (Big time performance on big stage. Please Give Coach Knight his due!!!)
Sierra Canyon- C (Overhyped. Not their fault blame the "rankers")

Nsbasketball i agree with your grades except in regards to newark memorial and dublin.
Newark memorial is a solid well coached program and have been for years they will put
up a good fight every night.And as far dublin i thought of all the teams that played yesterday
they had the best offensive system they moved the ball well and shared it very well
give them some credit odowd is down but they handed it to them they are a good team.

Dublin was good. Falls is solid..definitely has a ceiling tho..

Folsom was well coach and their 4 guards lineup was great.

Sheldon 5 guard line up was very impressive.

Modesto was definitely disappointing..Their guard play is very suspect...When Ellis went out, guards fell apart.

Woodcreek will be very good next year. Too young in backcourt. Jordan Brown is real.

ODOWD will struggle alot. Their soph guards need a lot of coaching. Bad shots and over dribbling. RICHIE will get them right tho.
Newark is was surprising good. Not a typical Ashmore team but they work hard.

I've always been a fan of Newark Memorial. With the exception of the Alloco coached DLS teams I'm not sure I see a tougher group year in and out. Not bad for a public. Sheldon and Folsom looks to be a great game.

Newark much improved, they were blown out of the water last year in this event. Much improved.

I tell you what! I was wrong about Moreau they were very impressive. Not only is Sierra canyon not the best team in ca, they may not even be best in SoCal? Props to Moreau.

Good grades. Slight revision by a silent observer:

Manteca- B (Kenny Wooten is main guy...with great defense he is limited)
St Marys- D (Over matched for these type of events) Agree
O'Dowd- D (Definitely a work in progress, good guards, needs 2 years to develop)
Dublin- C (Not much outside of Falls, beat lackluster O'Dowd. Struggle vs comp) Agree - Lost back to back games to Dougherty Valley last year.
Modesto Chrstn- B (Looked out of sync but always good come playoff time) Agree
Folsom- A- (Well coached, great guards.) Agree
Newark M- C- (Overrated based on past glory)
Woodcreek- B (Huge upside) Agree
Moreau- A (Big time performance on big stage. Please Give Coach Knight his due!!!) Agree
Sierra Canyon- B (Overhyped. Lost under pressure-much better team)

Not sure how you believe Woodcreek warrants a B+. Other than Brown, they had very little else to write home about. Guard play was weak, and Newark pretty much blueprinted the exact way to beat them.

I was really impressed with Moreau. I've never been the biggest fan of Damari Milstead's hype, but the kid had a great game and plays with an exceptional motor. He changed my opinion of him in a big way. They will be tough to beat in NorCal.

You forgot about Weston Ranch, the Ragsdale kid can really play. Stanislaus got a steal with him. Was the best guard in the tournament in my opinion.
