Who's going to take this one Saturday night?
Could this be a preview to District championship type game or even better, a Region champ game?

Droog as you stated is solid, and Bladwin can shoot. Front court play is a place where I see this one causing troubles for Grafton. What do you see Grafton trying to different?

Less attack mode and patience.(not that they attacked hard the first game but they did try run with them)....you have to counter the Tornadoes play with slow down, few turnovers, smart shot selection... breaking the press is huge, and then pound the middle....not that they dont know all this, but this is what I think may be different

Possibility, but I don't think the middle will be there for them. Droog likes that 12- to 15 ft. jumper and doesn't really like to post a lot. I just do not know how Grafton will be able to take advantage. Cavaliers length, speed, is too much.(JMO). You could be very close to something with the patiences thing. The other thing you mention(press) I just think makes it to hard to be patient. You and I have both seen a lot of presses over the years, and I think we agree, Cavalier does a good job with all the different presses, and looks they throw out at you. Should be a good game to watch, and I am sure the gym in Grafton will have a great crowd!! :
