What should the point spread be?

[FindTheLock]

in high school basketball the quarters are usually only 8 minutes long

[CanuckG]

8 mins no

[CanuckG]

Nevada prep schools don't use shot clock

Canada does

[CanuckG]

Quarters are 12 mins absolutely certain about that 8 mins that's like elementary school. Shot clock is either 24 or 30...

[FindTheLock]

I played 10 years ago, when did they bump the games up to 12 minutes for high school? That is longer than college games and = to NBA

[CanuckG]

Okay boys here we go from the BC High School Basketball website fukk me been years since I went to a game..

e: We changed to FIBA four years ago with an adaptation to keep the 30 second shot clock
and 10 second back-court. It seems like it is time to fully embrace FIBA by going to the 24 and 8.
The girls have gone to the 24 and 8 for the past three years.

Sr. Boys and Sr. Girls
1. 4–10 minute quarters
2. 5 minute overtime period(s)
3. 1 minute between quarters
4. Half-time—10 minutes (or less)

So 10 min q with 30 sec shot clock

yeah 12 min q made no sense. With these rules I like it at -50 for Findlay Prep

[FindTheLock]

I would make it 44.5 you're losing 8 minutes in the game from your other line and only giving back 5 points

[BigDeem5]

I say -38

[paranoyd androyd]

40 mins in the game.. conservatively, they'll be outscored 1 point per minute. more realistically, in the 1.25 to 1.75 ppm range. coming just under the 1.5 ppm median (60 pt spread) is fine.

Findlay prep beat teams 100x better than anyone here by 40+....difference is they're being paid to come up here so I can see them up 50 at the half and just lobbing it up. Should still win by 50-60. I think 48 would be a good enough number where they take the +48

[Vegas39]

I agree probaly win by 50+ either of those teams have height to defend down low

hopefully they don't run out the clock once they get a monster lead. If they put in the back ups and the coach tells them to be nice then it could be tighter than you think. I don't know enough about the teams to talk about it, but that is a huge number to hang in high school hoops.

Here are findlays scores so far

[FindTheLock]

damn they have 4 guys that are close to 7 footers. That is a HUGE high school basketball team.

[CanuckG]

No neither of the teams Findlay Prep is playing has anything near the height or size to match up. It's gonna be lob city like the Clippers out there

Jerome Williams is an assistant coach?

[FindTheLock]

damn looking at that team and the pictures of the other team I would just hang 50. It will get ugly even if they aren't trying their best. They have to be paying those guys to go to school there.
