Emoni Bates vs Scooby Johnson in HEATED Michigan Battle! 🔥

why am i watching fucking high school intro

[@TheBaller3213]

1st thing I noticed is ORANGE TEAM is more fundamental sound team. Lincoln looks like a team of individual players. Coaching is horrible for Lincoln it looks like give EMONI the ball and let's see. Orange team actually passed and ran plays just basic stuff. Lincoln coach will be gone. I like #11 never out of control very basic game that will get minutes in college

[@shilomcfadden3768]

I don’t believe Bates can play defense and in the game he didn’t really go at them like he should’ve... the key player on there team he should’ve defended.. he 6’6 maybe taller but he really don’t have a game, he can shoot that’s about it. Maybe this game he just relaxed 😌 ...

[@harrischoudhary]

no way did u just say that a 6’9 50/40/90 player sucks

[@danomaly8943]

Emoni bates team is garbage. The team they played against moved the ball better and defended better. Emoni to win these games is going to have to make his team a little better or drop 50 every game but his ceiling is very high. I see his game translating to the next level

[@jonathanboyce3111]

Now i see why bates dad took him from lincoln....smh

[@linlinlin883]

michigan crowd was hype ashhhh

Okay I want opinions anyone else think Emoni should go ahead and change school. Playing at Lincoln is not going to make him better. Be the #1 player in his class he can go anywhere and start ?

[@GregoryKeller]

Tray Ross yep joining those prep school super teams is lame

[@teairaterry]

Lebron went to a private school, why shouldn’t Emoni. Look I have a lot of respect for the game and all it’s players but he needs to go to a school with a better coach and better competition he need to see what college player are really going to be like.playing at low level public programs that can’t even get ranked even with the NUMBER 1 player ain’t cutting it. He won’t learn that playing against these schools especially in Michigan they don’t have really good programs there he should leave and that me being a honest.

[@djsmove2389]

teairaterry he didn’t get his ranking by high school basketball. He got it in the summer playing AAU against elite competition. I’m not saying high school basketball doesn’t matter but if you play great against elite competition in AAU. You can play local ball and still get recruited high. Zion Williamson is a perfect example. Played at a small private school locally and still was a top recruit because of what he did in the summer.

[@teairaterry]

djsmove2389 I understand what your saying your probably right I just think he could be really good with proper coaching and opportunity. Zion and Emoni are very different Zion was the most popular and most Athletic high school player of our generation. Emoni is special but he ain’t box office. This team is nothing compared to the real comp he can face and shit his AAU wasn’t even that good against real comp I watched them play against Strive for greatness. He good he’s y’all he needs a better foundation, Michigan is a lot of things but they aren’t known for elite HS basketball. Florida, Cali, NC, shit Minnehaha they have some elite stuff. I just think he deserves better

[@heno1835]

@Tray Ross Ja made it without all the hype stop making excuses for him its not his team that's bad its that everyone is an hype him up lets be real.

[@TRELL3132]

8:20 claps his hands as if he’s shutting emoni down 😂😂. You had deep help defense on the right and a double coming from the left smh

[@anthonytaylor7928]

Why didn't Lincoln coach make a defensive adjustment Stevie wonder could clearly see that they couldn't matchup up man to man Lincoln should have went zone force them to the half court. Also I continue to watch videos of bates please son work on going to ur left some and use that left hand u see how hard it was to get up shots using ur normal routine going to the right thats the way they we're defending u I pray all these kids are safe and much success in whatever they do

City of Trees he needs to leave honestly their is no good program for elite high school players in Michigan. Their is a reason why all the best players go to big name school. Better trainers, coaches, competition, and opportunities to be seen and recruited. He deserves better if you ask me.
