Dominguez De La Salle
Both tewams are playin and I was intending on going to the game, but then I learned that theyre playing in Dominguez. I’m 45 min from De La Salle as it is. O well. Should be interesting to see what he does against one of the most prestigious sports schools in America
I definitely see the Paul Pierce comparisons in Hamilton
with his ability to rise and shoot from a dead spot.
Even though the expectations may be too high, I really believe the sky is the limit next year. Unlike our excellent recruiting class in 2006, that team didn’t have much depth, didn’t have much of a front-court, and didn’t defend well. Next year, we’re going to have an incredible mix of youth and upperclassmen, with our offensive firepower coming from the freshman and Jai Lucas, along with Pittman and Johnson. We should still be really good defensively, and we’ll have competent PGs, along with a few glue guys in Mason, Ward, and Balbay. Next year could be epic.
