the only points klabunde scored were the ones when liggins was guarding him. his defense was poor to say the least that game .liggins is a good ball player don't get me wrong-but defense is not his strong suit

I wouldn't say this is a WDA bias. Although if it is, my status as a moderator does not effect what I think of basketball players. I think Liggins and Thorton are the best defensive players, and I have never seen anyone put up numbers against Hanstad. The original poster said Flaten "never" gets burned. I saw him get burned, so I was disputing that.
I doubt he is faster than Liggins, but this really doesn't matter, and I said he was up there as a defensive player. It is not like I said he was bad, and again, the original poster stated that he was "hands down" the best defender in the state. I doubt this poster has seen more teams play this year than I have. I think that is enough credit given to show that I do not have a bias. Notice I used two BHS players, and BHS gives up 44 points per game.
For the record, last year I said Benson was the best defender in the state. So I obviously do not have a WDA bias, or a bias against West Fargo, I just happen to think that BHS has the state's two best defenders.

Yeah ill completely disagree with that. Norths guards did no where near whatever they wanted. Savy was feeling it from deep and hit like 5 NBA threes, and West Fargo was playing zone when that happened. Other than that Savajeau didnt do anything on Flaten. And Shreiner did not put up huge numbers on him, because Flaten wasnt guarding him for most of the game he was guarding Thompson who was a bigger threat to them at the time. Flaten is THE best defensive player in the state. If you need a stop at the end of any game, you put Flaten on the best player aand its guaranteed he shuts them down 9 times out of 10.
