    I don't think that I have ever been so proud of my Hawks as I was last night. I have to say Dickie V is 100% correct, they are as good of a high school team as I have ever seen. They should be, they are the best that Houston has to offer. Hawks were in great shape until we lost our post presence. The final score was not a true indication of how close the game was. Great job by the coaching staff they put together a great game plan that made their press look silly sometimes.I cant say enough about the young men on the floor last night. They were NOT intimidated by them one bit. IMOHO I think that we played our best game of the year. You truly played with great resolve and the heart of a champion.......Great Job Hawks!

    Experience is the GREATEST teacher, Poppabearstarr! ;)....Some just think the world STOPS at the Jefferson/Hardin County line! 8)...Honestly, Yates has no business even BEING in 3A, because they are moving right back up after next year...It was a move for football...an experiment...Should have never been.

    [b]I don't think that anyone actually thought that the world stopped at the county line[/b]...I agree, they are not a 3A team. They are good, but that is not the only place that plays basketball either...My Lady Hawks showed the yates girls how to get it done earlier this week. ;)

    Poppa- You must understand that there are those who are "offended" by the degree of success the basketball program has experienced in little old rural (and tiny) Sour Lake.

    Not even a moral victory with such a crushing defeat last night for the success-studded program. Swiped aside like an also-ran

    Ya think?  ::)

    Not sure why we even play basketball in SETX since there are so many who know the future, right AAW?
    [/quote] Abe, your answer to the question that started this thread is...? Join in. Its fun and its free.

    IMO, silsbee/hj runs argyle into the ground.
    [/quote] Here's the test of sentiment overriding reality: Someone saying "we woulda beat ____________," regardless of the facts. And that same person NEVER EVER says, "even though we beat __________ , we shouldn't have." In fact, such a person is so completely blinded by sentiment that the thought never even OCCURS to them. The true test of a homer, and virtually 100% of HJ and Silsbee fans on here qualify. And not recognizing that in yourself is confirmation. Again, you all qualify. Face it, y'all got beat by a better team. Live with it. Its not that hard to recognize, just hard to admit. ESPECIALLY on this board.

    Okay, we get the point.  This is the update thread for the state tournament.  Let's stick to that.
    [/quote] Hmmmm, didn't tell others that to whom I was only responding....now back to the Tourney
    [/quote]

    I not the person to poke to in the eye.
    [/quote] Back to the tourney, please

    Final


    Corpus Christi Miller        33
    Argyle                          44


    Argyle is your 2012 class 3A State Champion!!!
    [/quote] As much as Silsbee and HJ fans LOVE their teams (even beyond reality a little bit, IMO) they must be kicking their dogs and throwing objects at their TV/computer screen. All that talent and no State appearance -- much less a trophy -- to show for it. Must really hurt.

    How does a 5A basketball team with two players going to Texas, playing "real" basketball, have only 5 points with 2:30 left in 2nd quarter?

    Naaman and their '6"11 Texas signee has just played 8 whole clock minutes (equivalent of 1 quarter) without scoring a point!!
    [/quote] Let me skool you for a brief minute Aggie. Most bigs you find today are not fully developed. They get the hype because of their size AND POTENTIAL. Most bigs are still in the developmental stage for this generation of ballers.
    [/quote]
    I've seen some of your limp answers before but this one is really lame.  The TEAM hasn't scored in a full 8 minutes.  Yep, 5A, where the real ball is played. ???
    [/quote]
    FM Marcus is a great defensive team. That's why forest only scored 5
    [/quote] true, plus Naaman seemed uninterested/incapable of getting ball to Prince anywhere near the paint. Of course, partial credit to Marcus D.......also possibly Naaman outcoached......certainly out-recruited.....and in one case, out-purchased :)

    [/quote] why?

    not what i expected.  am i wrong to assume that either Silsbee or HJ would've been arguably the best team at the state tourney had they advanced?
    [/quote]

    No, you are not wrong.
    [/quote] why?
