I can tell you were super invested by your comment so appreciate your support. This being high school we told the refs to call it super clean. We don’t want these guys future in jeopardy. That call was early in the game, if it was near the end I would’ve seen your point for sure

Back in the day when I used to ball ball before I blew my back I was known for being super fast my first step was unguardable but when I played with d1 and some really good players I was being called for travel every time was told you got to dribble first just can’t be in triple threat and take off so basically dude with braids first few buckets are all travels hard to stop someone that is fast and just takes off like that hard to stop but a lot of players do it even in the nba you see it but they do call the travel correct me if I’m wrong. Good game tho

There good at different things, Gavin drive and lay up package was tough and in rhythms he shoots nice. But other bro has better elevations and consistency he also was a more versatile defender because of his size. But you gotta remember this is a 1 on 1 between guards, what makes a guard elite? I feel like you can drop either one of them in the right system and they would amplify their team greatly. I wanna see how they play against each other in 5s but ill take 3s. There all so good though, that could of went either way
