His defense is going to need work. Towards the end he’s in one on one d and the guy blows by him an he barely moves. Normally i would say, eh its just high school an he probably gets by being a superior athlete, but that was the end of a big time close game where he should really be trying to lock down. Ive seen it in a cupl other vids as well. Athleticism and offensive game is obviously there, hopefully he has the desire to improve his defense
What a game! TP gets 26.
The championship game is tonight (Sat) at 7 with Warren Central.
I don’t know, but hopefully not fat PatWho's a comp for him? Intrigued what he can bring to the team next year.

Can’t think of a college comp for TP, especially not from Iowa program. But based on them both being combo-like guards of similar height, both strong and athleticism being a strength for their size, I’m going to guess that Donovan Mitchell is someone TP looks up to and dreams of being in the pros. Shooting not a super strength for Tony, but impressed with the work he’s put in to improve that part of his game. Think he’ll be a guy that shoots well enough to keep defenders from sagging off him consistently.Who's a comp for him? Intrigued what he can bring to the team next year.
Im not saying there isn’t a ton of talent in that game. Also not saying im not glad he’s a Hawk because it looks like there’s serious potential there. What I stated is not incorrect, go to the end of the video and you’ll know exactly what play im talking about. Scoring isn’t typically a problem for fran teams, we need defenders! and from what I have seen, his needs work.What I noticed is the level of talent and play... are you kidding me?....it's like watching the vids of Ahron Ulis playing against say a team like Simeon or pick another one here in Chicagoland. This talent plays the game above the rim and makes defensive stops and blocks that you just don't see a lot of HS players make which is what sticks out to me
There is a basketball vid of Ohio Football recruit Luke Lachey in the Lounge.....Luke is a hell of an athlete and BB player btw and it's smaller school Ohio BB too but Luke is a man among boys in the game and this is what I see comparable to the overall talent when I watch Tony or Ahron's games.....
Way to go Tony......win it all and so glad he is a HAWK and Ahron Ulis and Luke Lachey too!

Playing help defense is totally different than on ball defense. How many times the 3 years bohannon has played have people said, man he just cant keep his defender out of the lane and its such a liability making the defense collapse! Help side defense is great for a good block like he had but to me on ball defense is more important. That clip im talking about, look at his defensive stance, he’s literally just standing there! Then gets blown by without moving! Like i said in my last post, glad he’s gna be a hawk, but his man to man defense needs work. But hey, fran plays a ton of zone so maybe it won’t matter!I saw the 5-second clip of that D sequence...I also saw the 5-second clip of the defensive block he made to get a key stop of a crucial layin with about 2 minutes left in the game....most HS kids cannot make that play.....he also made a slick steal at the end of the game too. So what's the point really?
Well for me as a HS senior-only....Tony has the athleticism, skills, and talent....one the best HS talents and playing winning BB in the State of Indiana which plays some pretty damn good HS BB so he must be doing a lot of things right.....including playing defense.
I am also sure he will need to improve his game both offensively/defensively at the next level and the great thing is...he has the talent and I bet the drive to do that.

Yea, there was a lot of talent in that game...but if that kid can do it to him, what do you think big10 wings will do? My first posts and any other posts were not to diminish this kids talents, nor to say i was disappointed fran landed him. But merely to state that from what IVE seen, which is limited to a few video’s, his defense needs work. A lot to be excited about athleticallyIf you're talking about that play where #0 hits the teardrop, you're right poor defensive stance and not moving his feet. But that kid is impressive and I bet he does that to a lot of kids. I'm sure he will play college ball somewhere. But did you notice how a little later he strips the ball from the same kid to ice the game. I say Perkins is the steal of this class in the BIG at least.
