[quote name="Scooter!" post="965506" timestamp="1297565085"] this game is nuts!!!! [/quote] Being there in person was even more impressive. La marque had no reason to lose that game though imo, they were up by 12 at halftime & got the ball first to start the 3rd quarter... i believe they scored that possession, so their highest lead was 14. But congradulations to both teams, these are truly the two best teams in 24-4A

[quote name="Honest Abe" post="965145" timestamp="1297490410"] Anyone know who won? [/quote] the game starts at 7:30 tonight in houston.

I say, if La marque plays with their high percentage shooting early off, then they will will. But its not going to be easy, LM by 3

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="964022" timestamp="1297352055"] 8-10. Will control the game but the Cougars are too good to let them run away with it. [/quote] True. thanks for the input

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="964016" timestamp="1297351809"] New game. Same story. Ball wins it. [/quote] By?

[/quote] If Lewis jacks up 3's like he did last time, he will shoot LaMarque to another loss. I got Ball by 4. [/quote] Yes i feel the same about the Lewis part. But since the last meet of these two teams i've noticed LM has been played alot more team ball, evenly distributing the pts. No more games with Lewis having 25+ pts unless absolutely necessary.

So who's gonna win it guys? Can i get some predictions?

This game will in essence determine which of these two teams will be district champs. Should be a well fought game.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="950091" timestamp="1295317182"] LaMarque has no patience. Their coaching is terrible. [/quote] Their coaching is far from terrible. We just didnt see it tonight because they were not executing well enough to compete with this ball team of so much talent. LM played with purpose tryin to trap Ball with its press and cause easy turnovers, but wen it didnt bring positive results the players just tryed to create shots where ever they could find it.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="950188" timestamp="1295319900"] LaMarque did not play team ball. Lewis shot the ball 40 times, never tried to get his teammates involved. Ball is the much better team, player wise and coach wise. [/quote] La Marque made the badd shoot decisions in despiration. That was certainly not how they usually play. But i can assure you they will be better pre-pared for the rematch.

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="949452" timestamp="1295220870"] Because LaMarque is not in SETX...  Very simple looking at the name of the list...  SETXsports... [/quote] Oh yeah, lol your right.

[quote name="KHSAlum400" post="949377" timestamp="1295211918"] The game will be video-streamed LIVE on FoxSportsSouthwest.com tomorrow night at 7pm. [quote]Two of the state’s top five-ranked Class 4A boys basketball squads will meet on Monday in a district clash. La Marque (22-1), the No. 1 team in the state according to the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches and Ball (22-2), ranked No. 5 as of Sunday, will have their first of two District 24-4A meetings at 7 p.m. Monday at Phillips Fieldhouse in Pasadena. The game was moved to a neutral site to accommodate the large crowd that is expected. All 2,500 tickets distributed to the schools sold out last week and no tickets will be available at the door. No passes of any kind will be accepted for entry. [b]A video webcast will be streamed live on FoxSportsSouthwest.com. A live streaming audio feed will be provided by TSRN Sports (tsrnsports.com) and CMC Communications via Houston 5A Baseball (h5ab.com).[/b] [/quote] [/quote]once we're on the website what do we go to? i know its not until tomorrow but im just wonderin.

Why isnt no. 1 ranked La marque on this list? their record is better than everyone's up there. (22-1)

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="949016" timestamp="1295140600"] And how are they overrated and their only 2 losses come against out of state prep schools.  Remember, this team also beat your Tigers, who IMO have a darn good team themselves... [/quote] La Marque's ONLY loss was by 1 pt. (67 - 68) and i believe they only lost because they had a game the night before, and play the team that beat them the next day. Plus La marque was short 6 of its valuable players due the football team still in competion for state. Ball is good, but Lm is better IMO. Should be a great game though.

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="948841" timestamp="1295115605"] Did Ball and LaMarque play last year? [/quote] Yes they did. And La marque won... 74 to 68 (according to maxpreps)

But let's not forget la marque is no. 1 in 4a, were district champs last year and went farther in the playoffs than ball last year. But you never know with rivalry games..... i sayy Lm by 6 to 10 pts. [/quote] GB was in 5A last year. [/quote]yes but they were 5a district champs, why could they not make it to play Yates instead of 4a district champs LM?
