    My inlaws went to this game and some PG fans sat behind them. My lnlaws said they talked about how good they were and that they have only one lose and the size advantage they have on such a small team and yada,yada,yada. Then just before tip off one of them tapped my father-in-law on the shoulder and said "we didn't drive all this way for nothing, so get ready" my father-in-law said "OK". In the second period they didn't talk as much, and when the third period got going they didn't say nothing. After the game they just got up and left the building, with out saying a word. Kinda rude don't you think, just getting up and leaving like that not even a good luck or nothing. Go Tigers!!!

    I am still trying to figure out how this is a "weak schedule"

    Kountze (26-8 1st Place District)
    Nederland (27-7 Co-Champs with Central)
    Beaumont Central (21-9 Co-Champs with Nederland)
    Port Lavaca Calhoun (28-4 1st Place District--Ranked as high as #21)
    Corpus Christi Calallen (14-15 2nd Place Behind CC Ray)
    Kingwood Park (24-11 2nd Place District Behind Humble)
    Jacksonville (24-8 2nd Place District Behind Tyler)
    LC-M (4 Times) (19-15 4th Place District)
    Silsbee (2 Times) (23-7 Co-Champs with HJ) 3A #5 Ranked Team

    Is it as strong as some teams, no!!!  But it is far from weak!!!!  12-1 in those 13 games.  Only loss at Silsbee by 3 points.  There are no more or no less weak teams on HJ's schedule than anyone else's!!!!  No world beaters on there either!!!  But non-district wins over good solid 4A teams and a solid 2A team in Kountze.
    [/quote]Well with all the weak opponents HJ has played this year. It sure has generated alot of discussion from others.  ;)  :D ;D

    Stay fresh, stay healthy and practice some things that you will need to work on for the playoffs.
    [/quote]So HJ is going to play a team that fouls a lot, so they can practice free throws?  ::)
    [/quote]Thats funny stuff. ;D ;D

    1. He is looking for a matchup problem team for his team to be better prepared for. (dominant inside game)

    Explain dominant and who in this area could provide that type of game play to the Tigers.  I think the Tigers make getting the ball to block for any team a very difficult thing.  They deny the pass very well and their help defense is impeccable. You can have twin towers in the paint but if they don't get the ball their size is mute attribute. If it is for rebounding purposes the Hawks slightly out rebounded them in both games.  If I am not mistaking 32 had close to double doubles in both games and the Tigers were challenged when 10 moved to the post or ran the baseline. So what you are saying if HJ plays the Tigers again 32 and 42 should stay on the bench and watch because they do not score 25 per game.  They are not expected to do that, they have their role and do it to the coaches satisfaction or they wouldn't be playing. One last question, what team is Silsbee wanting to prepare, to me it should be your next opponent. Although, your entitled to your comments next time a simple "We just want to a change a scenery" is far better than throwing kids under the bus.

    First of all, explain how I threw any player under a bus?? ::)

    My comments were not my opinion. Those reasons for not wanting to play the seeding game came from the Silsbee coaching staff. I believe they know what is best for their team in getting prepared for the playoffs.

    I have seen just about every Silsbee game this year. The teams that have given Silsbee the most trouble is teams that have a dominant post play. WF Rider had a '6"8 post player that Silsbee had a hard time controlling. He had 38 points and 16 rebounds against them. McKinney North, Dallas Kimball and Dallas SOC posed the same problems for Silsbee. Even in some wins this year by the Tigers, they were still hurt by a big. Example: Silsbee's win 64-57 over Hamshire-Fannett last week, the Longhorn's post Cameron Malveaux had 29 points, 19 rebounds and 7 block shots. He was the main reason why that game was as close as it was. First time these two played in district this year, Silsbee won by 40. They had a better game defensively against HF.

    I think it is very reasonable for a coach to want to schedule a team for a warm up game that will challenge the weakness of his team. In this case, if indeed Silsbee will be the #2 seed, then they would play Splendora then in the 2nd round face Brookshire Royal who has a '6"7 and '6"6 starting post players. I think Silsbee is confident in their abilities against Splendora but wants to be better prepared for a team that will cause major match up problems for them.

    Also, who said anything about Silsbee wanting to play anyone locally. They are looking at playing a Houston area team or up north in the East Texas area. They already have a tentative game set to play 3A #15 Pleasant Grove on Saturday in the East Texas Playoff Warm Up Classic. Pleasant Grove is in Region II and has a very good '6"8 post player, saw them play in the Sherman tourney where Silsbee played this year.
    [/quote]Good post. Makes sense to me. Gonna be hard enough to get out of region 3 as it is.
