Brandon Roy coaching one of the top HS basketball teams in the nation

Anybody live in the Seattle area does he play Jamal crawfords old school or some of their other top teams in that area are they in the same conference

 

[SuperNintendo Chalmers]

certainly he has, but subtract porter and brother from team, and they're just not good w/o them. tolton catholic i'm sure (i haven't looked at their record) has struggled w/o having the porters there this year.

they're only ranked /this good because of porter...without him, they'd be irrelevant. It's not like he's doing some amazing coaching job. jontay porter is solid as well as one of their guards PJ fuller.

You don't say



Without good players, their team wouldn't be as good?



What an incredible revelation.

randomly saw his team playing ESPNU one time against Garfield which is how I found out Roy was a coach now

And thats a very...very good pool to draw from

I know garfield and ranier in the back like

Problem with that is, all the top players in Seattle play AAU at Rotary, which is a pipeline to Rainier Beach, Garfield or Franklin.

yeah they play Rainier Beach, they play in the Metro League.
also against Garfield (which is Brandon Roy's former school & Toney Wroten)
and Franklin (which is Aaron Brooks, Peyton Siva, Jason Terry)

Well to be fair you take the two best players off any team and they're not as good.

you're both making my point for me...coaching is overrated

1) At HS/college level recruiting is a big and maybe even the most important part of coaching.

2) When 2 teams have a comparable level of talent then coaching definitely matters.
