Hello friends. Yes it is I, your beloved friend Marv. You all know I couldn't pass up an opportunity to give an opinion or two concerning an EC/GC game. But before I do let me first say hello to Hoops, Roy and Sean, it's good to see you boys, it's been awhile.
Now that we have all the formalities out of the way lets get down to business. Even though EC is having what everyone is calling an "off year," they are incredibly dangerous on their home turf. George is a stellar player who can easily light it up beyond the arc, or take it inside and turn someone into a poster. Although he does in fact miss Oxton, come tonight, he will do everything in his power to will his Gulls to a W.
I'm not so sold on Ellis yet. Last year Ellis was a non-factor, and failed to make any difference what-so-ever in the "Game." He is putting up good stats thus far this year, but there is only one game that really matters, so I reserve my opinion on him until the game concludes.
Darko is Darko. He is going to get his O boards and his D boards. He will put up double digits again tonight as he always does. That's something GC understands. What GC can not do is turn him into a hero. If they begin playing him tough, by pushing him around down low, and establish themselves as defensive foes, I think he will play to his average and no more. If they let him get 20 and 20, which he is more than capable of doing against GC, this game has to go in EC's favor.
GC on the other hand has a lot more positives to build on. With Marstaller giving St. Clair a run for his money in the POY category, he is always a threat to have a huge night. His offensive low post presence has increased dramatically this year, along with his defense. EC will have their hands full by trying to double team him tonight.
When that double team goes down low Herr is going to have to begin torching it from 3 ball land. He has been cold as of lately, but as all good shooters know, you keep shooting until you make it.
Logan and J.Kauff need to control and lead the team like they have done so well this year. With Kauffmans flair for the dramatic, and Logans tendency to play a more organized form of bball, this backcourt is difficult to scout, and even more difficult to guard. They will hit their averages tonight, but their assist totals need to elevate.
But the difference for both teams is bench play. GC's bench is far superior to EC's. EC's bench is too concerned with posting instead of getting mentally prepared for the game. GC's bench on the other hand has veteran leadership, talented players, as well as players who have played in these big games before. A solid bench, mixed with solid starters, makes for a solid win tonight for the Scots. You have to like GC by 5+ when the night is all said and done.
