My take on the game:
1. Ozen is a very solid team and gave us fits with their press.  They play with such confidence.
2. Ozen also hurt us on the offensive glass.  Gibson and Boyd were just too big and too physical.
3. Bolden hit nine 3's last night which definitely helped the cause.
4. I would like to think that Ozen didn't play down but rather New Caney played well and had a good game plan.  But then again I am biased.
Overall it was a fun game and I really enjoyed it.  At least it wasn't a snooze fest blow out.  The better team won last night and moved on to the next round.  My one observation was it didn't look like Ozen was enjoying or having fun last night.  I hope they aren't consumed with the destination but rather take time to enjoy the journey.  Smile and laugh,  which was my favorite part of the night.  Gibson tried to look at my dry erase board to see the play I drew up.  I said I can't allow you to do that, while smiling myself, and the kid had a huge smile on his face.  I erased it and then showed it to him and he cracked up laughing.  That's the spirit young kids need.  
Love the game. Enjoy the moment.

Ozen played horrible and couldn't check New Caney's #3 Bolden for anything.  Was waiting for Ozen to realize that the only major weapon on their arsenal was him.  He shot out of that weak zone for much of the evening.  I'm sure this kid had 30 points, all on 3s.  And I also wonder why when a player get a hot, he is immediately taken out of the game.  Hard to get into a groove that way...all I'm all, Ozen did just enough to win, such is enough in the playoffs.  But against Bush, they will need to do better or they'll be taken to the woodshed.  And I've been waiting on Comeaux to come alive.  This makes like 3 weeks this kid haven't shown up.  He's my guy.  I hope he chooses the next game to come alive...

...and also, one of the refs at this game was seriously in his feelings frenquently Stopping play to fuss at kids or to banter back and forth with fans just because fans heckled his arsenal after several stupid calls or the lack of calls...

Maybe next year ;-)

Ok before talk about Bush we  havent even played New Caney yet.. ONE GAME AT A TIME... But didnt want to play Central which is why they took all day to make a decision when they found out Ozen was the 1st seed they gave Elkins the 1st seed with no flip. They believe their chances are better against Ozen. They are not big as some would think trust me, size wise ozen and bush are equal, bush doesnt play ANY of the bigs kids on the bench so thats out the window. But we shall see what these playoffs hold. I know its a lot of HATERS out there wishing Ozen or Central lose so they can get fingers ready to type away.. All i can say is good luck with that !!!!

Lee wanted it more and we couldn't stop Hockless. Pretty much wraps up the game. These boys need to ask themselves how much winning means to them. Some kids have that 'not gonna lose' mentality. I believe that is called the 'it factor' that so many people refer to. Some kids have it, some don't. I can recall a few games (earlier in the season) where we had that mentality. Lately, we don't seem to have 'it'. We need to somehow find that desire to win again. 

if it wasn't for a few mental lapses and POOR officiating . Ozen doubles up Central tonight easily. But a win is a win. S/O to Trey Gip, Tyleor Broussard,and Josh Boyd they played great tonight . Funny thing ppl in the stands kept saying #0 is too small but every game he plays he keeps silencing the naysayers. Kid is a dog on the court , size doesnt matter when you have that trait in you. . 

And you say that because Bush smashed Silsbee by 30 stop the foolishness. EVERY year you guys say the same thing and the outcome never changes. Ozen is battle tested their problem isnt with Houston teams. And Central would also handle anyone out of that district. I respect Bush they have a very good coach and a solid team but Ozen has better guard play. Imo Elkins is a better team they mirror Ozen. 

Tray Gib was a monster tonight early, but I'm so confused in why central never pressured Ozen the whole game while Ozen pressured Central....  Ozen dictated the slow tempo of the game all night.  Central missed a lot of 3 pointers and missed about 12 free throws, but one of Ozen's big guns missed literally like 10 layups.  Uncharacteristic for this young man.  But Boyd took over late and put it away late...  Good win for Ozen.  Now let's go win in the playoffs and hopefully these two can dance again...

Sad but true the agony of defeat brings out the worse in some of us....I have no dog in this fight but it seems there's some hateration here for Beaumont Ozen and the success they have each year in basketball. Big Ned dominates in football and i commend them not hate on them.   

Not condoning anything but before you rush to judgment to burn the kid at the stake you should know more about the kid. I will go on the limb and say most not all kids in this generation have attitudes not saying its right but what can you do to turn a negative into a positive. And i will almost guarantee every college team has their fair share of kids with them but at the end of the day helping the kid work on that part himself is more important than anything he'll learn in life & you cant just throw a kid away .

Really! You guys want get pass round one

You guys played us close last year  and we made it to state and y'all  don't  make it passed round one. So you're  right dejavu !!! Let's  go Panthers. By the way theirs no home cooking in the payoffs hehehehe!

Wow, that's a lot to infer. Sometimes the root of the problem is that you need a change of scenery. I'm watching the A&M game right now and saw DeVante Fields sack their qb. Fields was the defensive player of the year in the Big 12 as a freshman but had issues, now he's at Louisville playing in a bowl game and about to get drafted. You can even take Hubanek playing A&M tonight after transferring from two schools, albeit for a different reason. 
Sometimes it just doesn't work for some players in some places. I'm not saying it's the best option but it's probably time to start thinking about it after how the last two years went. I think the "trapped in the 409" thing is still a bit of a stretch at this point though. 

wasnt it you that brought up the past 15 years thing? 

I asked for expertise, but I got the usual baby babble...  I don't know basketball.  When that notion goes down the drain, it's we know who the better is at the end of the day.  The debate continues be a use we DON'T know.  
As I've said, results, not excuses.  The kid with results is who I'm taking.  Don't think I'm attacking Ozen basketball, because Central has this going on too.  
And if you feel this thread is ridiculous or childish or whatever, simply don't open the thread and read.  It's that simple.  The amazing thing about us humans us that you can control your own fingers.  You can stop them from clicking on stupid threads preventing your eyes from even seeing them.  Food for thought....

C'mon Ozen,  one more game!!!! 

64-58 Ozen final.

Is Spar an on the Central squad?

Nope, Whaley is not my son...as usual you are wrong again. 

Lol...I got that info yesterday...I'm not working too hard anyway. 
Good luck to your Panthers and your boy tomorrow night.  

if you going to say it make sure you say it right bass guitar! Lol......

I just wanted you to know i know who you are "Guitar man"...
Jags4life!!!

Let's Go Panthers!!!! It starts tonight!!!!!!!!!
