Yeah, that shot in the first match of our semifinals was amazing. I still can't believe it.

Re: Best Human Player????
 

I didn't get to watch a lot of matches, but the times I saw Kingman (60), Amanda was in the groove. She was quick; she looked confident; and she didn't miss any of the shots I saw.

Re: Best Human Player????
 

I liked 33's and 1241's Human Player. Although, I have to say our team's human player was no less. At the Chesapeake regional he got badly injured in his leg and he still got 7 of 9 in, I think. Otherwise, he gets most in(except for the practice rounds in nationals where he was trying out new stuff).

Re: Best Human Player????
 

469 had a very good human player. He complimented his team's excellent herding/collecting strategy very well and made a great deal of his shots.

Re: Best Human Player????
 

93's was truly incredible, especially at regionals and 469's did really well, too!

and of course, i do have to give kudos to 269's own aaron jensen for shooting an awesome 95% throughout regionals and nationals ;)

Re: Best Human Player????
 

126 and 571!

I don't think I saw the Paragon guy miss once! It was incredibly! They all went swish swish swish.... (If there was a net)

And the 126 gal was quite excellent, in more ways than one... ;)

Heretic, you're good too!

Re: Best Human Player????
 

My vote's to 33 and 1241. Though I lean towards 33 cause I saw them in VCU and I also PICKED them in Canada for the sole reason that they could deliver balls better than anyone and could also hang (new feature). Both 33 and 1241's human players had near-perfect accuracy. 33's had a bit quicker release time though. :)

Re: Best Human Player????
 

Yeah, 33 and 1241 both rocked. I wanted to see some more extreme long distance shots, like all the way across the field into a mobile goal. That would have been sweet. Or, over the bar, across the field diagonally. I only got the chance to shoot once or twice in the mobile goal... they were pretty difficult unless it was within 5 to 10 feet.

Re: Best Human Player????
 

Oh man, do not forget Devon from Team 45, that boy could shoot, that was sweet to watch from the sidelines when our team sat out in the Midwest Finals. Woo...

Re: Best Human Player????
 

Well, thank you! I have to give credit where credit is due, however. I would never have been such a good shot if Jason Morrella hadn't have been giving me some of his shooting strategy. I learned from the best! haha.

There were a lot of great HP's out there this year. 33 and 1241 were awesome. It ws great working with them!

Re: Best Human Player????
 

every time our human player missed one we would give him a good kick. it's kinda like training a puppy - frustrating at first, but they learn

Re: Best Human Player????
 

I have to say that 177's human player was AWESOME! Nothing like those CT basketball players eh?
Our human player was above and/or with the large majority
As for 571's hp........it was like puppy training, they're at our facility all the time, they def trained him well, lol, good job jake! he turned out pretty darn good!
Anyone else ever wonder why teams didn't take out a hp that wasn't doing so hot? My team did it, and I don't know if its a personal thing or what, but if they're doing poorly, wouldn't you want someone else in? Since they are the main point scorer? Just wondering what other teams did........

Re: Best Human Player????
 

That's so mean... But I like it!!! :D

Re: Best Human Player????
 

Yep, Devin was good, and he got better as the pressure was on. He is only a freshman, and our two drivers are Juniors. :)

1241's shooter was awesome. Copioli was even counting his made baskets during their matches in Great Lakes. 269 had a great shooter also.

Speaking of shooters, one of the more impressive things I saw this year was when a shooter said "hey, I am not that great at shooting, and I am willing to pass the ball over to your coach and shooter". That level of honesty is very respected. 930 did that in Midwest, and they had a great drive team.

Re: Best Human Player????
 

I'd like to recognize 281. Maybe not the best from what I hear, but darn near it.
