They play some local 4A and a ton of 2A schools. No school they have played so far this year besides Central and Longview could stay in the gym with Silsbee. Not even Kountze! [/quote] You are aware that Kountze have already beaten Silsbee by 20 already, right? [/quote] and we all know that was 3/4 Silsbee JV team at that time. Only 4 (just 2 starters) of the current 14 varsity players were playing at that time. But, that team was good enough to beat Central the week before. ;) [/quote]...and good enough to loose to a Baytown Lee team AFTER receiving the football boys back? 8) [/quote] Soulja, your basketball credibility is lacking if you are saying that Silsbee is the same team now as they were the first 3 weeks of the season. The Baytown Lee loss was a bad loss for Silsbee even tough it was the first game with the football players with 1 practice under their belts and on the road. A couple of those football players did not even suit out for that game. Do I think Silsbee beats Kountze now? Yes. Do I think Silsbee beats Central now? I don't know but I like their chances. I can assure you that based on what I have seen from watching Silsbee and Central early part of the season till now, Silsbee has improved much more as a team than what Central has done thus far. Does that equate in a Silsbee win over Central right now? No it doesn't. But then again, Central had no business losing to a Silsbee JV team neither. ;)

Personally, I hope they keep this game every year at Ford Arena. I thought it was great out there, particularly from a broadcast and fan point of view. I would much rather be able to get to the facility at 6-7pm for 7:30pm tip than having to get there at 4:30pm.

Tonight at 9pm. [Hidden Content]

[quote name="XDOG" post="1364091" timestamp="1358350015"] Anybody know what it was last night for the HJ Slilbee game. [/quote] I believe it was around 3500-4000. I was told the arena seated 7500 for basketball. It was over half full last night.

A couple of firsts for me last night. First time I have ever seen any Silsbee team give up 37 points in one quarter. Also was the first time I have ever witnessed an HJ team never have a lead at any time during the game. After the 8-0 start for Silsbee (a lead that eventually hit 23 in the 3rd Q), the closest HJ got to Silsbee was 4 points with 7 seconds left in game (80-76). Silsbee has to stop squandering these big leads. Will eventually comeback to bite them.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1364048" timestamp="1358344517"] That was probably a good loss for HJ. From a playoff point of view, [b]getting 2nd in district  may be a good place in the scheme of things  ;)[/b] [/quote] Well, currently HJ sits in the 3rd place spot. 21-3A 3rd place plays "you-know-who" in the 2nd round of the playoffs. ;)
