Biggest Winners and Losers of PCTI9

While it's fresh on my mind, I wanted to pop up a post....

Losers:

3: Shooting %'s: Whether it be the increased intensity on defense, pace of the game, or knowledge of each other's games, the shooting %'s will be back down to PCTI1 levels.

2: T/Re Pad: Although some huge plays from Juice down the stretch, a couple big 3's in key moments from Smooth, and a lot of noise from DTB's mouth, the Pad did not have their best showing.

1: Josh Pitto: The guy took a pounding in Project X interviews.

Winners:

5: Splitwise's PCTI Reputation: After a rough showing in PCTI8, Splitty's app has simplified the payment button, and now is a useful tool with a bright future in PCTI.

4: Rivalries: Somehow, the rivalries not only intensified, but new one's were added to the fold. Between Kyle accusing DTB of "using him," Smooth and Sticky's on and off court saga, and the Nerds vs. Cool Guys... PCTI rivalries are stronger than ever.

3: The Beast Monikor: Although Kyle did everything to showcase he's a beast, The Beast Carney's play on the court showed he was going to protect his nickname like his life depended on it.

2: Bearden/Father Ryan HS: The MVP and entire All-Tournament might be consumed by those two high schools.

1: PCTI: Somehow, it continues to get better... I've heard many say the best yet... Cincy and Arizona were the only two that could compete both on and off the court.  As the friendships continue to grow, and the newcomers continue to add such high value, the future is looking bright!
