Tonight Coleman Pitt Post 58 American Legion team will go for the regular season title in the eastern division. A victory would give Post 58 home field advantage during the 1st round of the playoffs. The first round is a two out of three and if today all games were in the books we will start with Greenville Post 160. However that might change by weeks end.
Game time is 7.00pm at Northern Nash and Tarboro is the tonight’s opponent. Last week Post 58 beat Tarboro 28-3 at Tarboro.
1st round of the playoffs start July 1st at home and July 3rd will also be a home game if needed. The first round has to be finished by July 4th so hopefully no baseball on the fourth unless rain intercedes.
The second round is a three out of five would start July 6th.
Tonight is also the NBA Draft. Here are my thoughts on some of the locals.
Tyler Hansbrough- North Carolina… I don’t believe Tyler will ever be an all star in the NBA. I do think that fifteen years from now when he announces his retirement you will say. He was a good NBA player.
Ty Lawson- North Carolina… Ty is the mystery man in this draft. I doubt whether he will last any longer than his three year contract. Can’t play defense, too short.
Gerald Henderson- Duke.. I’m still trying to figure out why he is going pro early. Not a great shooter, not a great ball handler, Sounds like an NBA first rounder to me. Will play along time in Europe.
Courtney Fells- N C State… I think Fells has the NBA game. Maybe not an all star but a serviceable player. He may not be drafted but will make somebody’s team.
Wayne Ellington-North Carolina… Maybe best Carolina player for the NBA this year he will be an all star.
Danny Green-North Carolina… will probably start out in Europe But I think he will make it some day in the NBA.
Jeff Teague-Wake Forest… Is a super star waiting to happen in about three years? He is leaving two years early.
James Johnson Wake Forest…. His style is the NBA Style. Will be a very good NBA player for a long time.
Stephan Curry- Davidson…. There are guys cut out to be college players and some molded for the NBA. Great college player, but at six feet two inches he will need to be a point guard. Ball handling is not part of his game. He will be in the NBA at least for three years because he will be a high pick. He will get a lot of money for little results in the NBA.
I have no crystal ball to gaze into so who knows what the results will be.
