Nederland 56 Beaumont West Brook 59/FINAL


Recommended Posts

  • AggiesAreWe changed the title to Nederland 56 Beaumont West Brook 59/FINAL

Imo over the last 15 years the majority of college basketball is more up tempo, full court fast paced, score alot of points, mix of man & zone defenses. With a few teams still playing the slow tempo, half court, low scoring, man to man only defense. NBA is all about up tempo, fast pace, high scoring, not much defense played of any type. Trust me only the players family & die hard Nederland fans that think English is the greatest coach in the history of basketball would buy a ticket to watch Nederland style of basketball played over a team like Bmt. United or Silsbee.

I’m all about results.  If the slowed down tempo wins games, I don’t have a problem with it.  And besides, you have to have the personnel to run up tempo fast pace basketball.  Do Nederland have the personnel to do it?  I don’t know.  I have not seen them this year.  But basketball is a beautiful sport. I’ve seen some slowed down basketball worked to perfection.  Ever see Atascocita play?  They work their motion half court offense To perfection.

Nederland might not have the players but KF likes that up tempo game of Silsbee like they played against United. It is more exciting to lose by 30 than it is to lose by 3.

In Coach English and Nederland problem is the Jimmy and Joes and not the X’s and O’s… you gotta play what gives you the best chance. Kinda like what TVC said.

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
