Dallas Lincoln 75 Silsbee 72/Final
TxHoops replied to WOSgrad's topic in High School Boys Basketball
I agree and was advocating Texas to hire Shaka for a couple of years before they did. Why? Because I think he is one of the best teachers of defense in the game at any level. They do press in the back court but his pressure man defense with all 5 players playing team defense is a thing of beauty. And it wears a team down as much or more than the press. They do throw some zone in (which most teams do) but I like this as well to give teams different looks. And FWIW, I think Sigler does a very good job at coaching man defense at Silsbee as well. They do a very good job at playing man and still trapping out of it at the right times. -
For the season and consistency, the best two players were Grubbs and D McCain, period. However, due to time missed for grades, you would have to put the freshman at the top of the list.

So relieved he's okay. Special kid and player.

I might be off but I think Little McCain, Adams, Maze, Barnes, and Thomas start. Newton, Grubbs, M McCain, and Harris all played a lot in the second half and were instrumental in the comeback. The only one of the second group who didn't (and I don't remember seeing him at all in the second half) was Mackey. And that was a little surprising to me because I thought that first half was the best he's played in the playoffs this year. At least offensively anyway. -

I thought you told me classification doesn't mean anything? Sooo, Silsbee vs. central 1-0. Ozen vs. central 1-2. -

The fact that you think "the big 10 sucks and it ain't no secret" shows you are a basketball embecile. But nice try at the deflection Special J. -

Two teams in the Final Four from the same conference does mean the conference doesn't "suck." Well, that and the fact they tied the Big 12 with the most bids with 7. How many bids did the Southland get other than the automatic one? Don't worry, I'll wait... -

By the way, that means in the last 12 months, the Big 10 has sent 2 more teams to the Final Four than the Southland has in the history of the tournament...but yeah, the Big 10 sucks and It's no secret... -

How dumb are you? How many Big 10 teams were in the Final Four last year? I will give you a hint: 50% of them (now divide 4 by 2...) -

There we agree. A lot of teams that play man, don't really know how to play man. -

They played some really good man defenses along the way. Didn't always fare well but did more times than not. Some they faced were better than Lincoln's and a couple of times they lost bigger than tonight. -

The only person you make look stupid, Special J, is yourself. Don't believe me? Ask anyone else. But that's not quite an impressive feat, is it? After all you're playing with a deck with no face cards... -

I'm done arguing with you Special J. Atascocita may lose this game, and Carson may have an off game. But it won't change the fact that they won 38 straight and beat the likes of Lancaster, DeLaSalle and others along the way. And it won't stop a loud mouth, know-it-all from coming online and screaming overrated when they finally lose a game. Just like you couldn't wait to criticize Silsbee's coaching when they came up short (just like your Panthers when you played). And next year, when Edwards is playing in the Big 10 and someone else is not, you'll be just as wrong as you are now. But flame away. It is your strong suit. Well, that and assistant coaching on the pooh cheese summer circuit. -

The metroplex continues to own basketball in this state. -
In the big three sports, our little SETX district (24-4A/9-4A) has had a team in the championship game in 4 out of 5 championships this year and last, with one championship. Pretty amazing. Now let's make it 5 out of 6. (Special thanks to the Mustangs for making it in 3 out of 5).

Lincoln team is young too. Kortrijk Miles, who very much looked like the best player on the floor, is a junior. He's the younger brother of Keaton Miles who plays for Arkansas after transferring from West Virginia. -

Missed layups and free throws have been a killer - have to convert easy points. Great season Tigers. Something tells me these two will meet again. -

Didn't like that foul call on Mackey. Should have been a 3 pt play. Defender too deep.
