Comeaux with 37pts 

Beat a very good team 3 times in a year including last year... Thats tough because Harker Heights is well coached too... I thought last year that was the best team Ozen had faced all year ...

Comeaux with 37pts 

he's in THE ZONE ....lol ...great job Ozen when everyone doubts you just keep proving them wrong hats off to the coaching staff for doing an excellent job 

Comeaux with 37pts

Dont forget both beaumont school beat Bush so as someone stated earlier its not like they cant be beat. And dont forget Elkins last yr district champ is in their district they return the majority of their team from last year only losing two off it.. Bush will not just breeze past them ..

Ok yall need to stop, this is rdiculous... Best players or no best player, Boyd already has a scholarship Comeaux has some offers but nothing concrete. If either one of you knew how it worked you would see Boyd is playing good ball while Comeaux is benefiting from that  ...think about it ,is it really necessary for Boyd to jack up shot after shot just because yall think he should because he's the best player . Im glad he understands Comeaux deserves some of the accolades and isnt being selfish about it. Too many times the best player is about them and   Unconcerned about getting their fellow seniors looks  as well .  Props to you Boyd and Comeaux dont listen to the clowns that try to divide yall by defining who the best is. Doesnt matter just win baby...

Nobody is the best guard because it depends on the system you play in...
 
Numbers are inflated in certain systems...if you play in the Yates system you shoot as much as you want....

It's like having a lock down cornerback, nobody throws to his side...so the numbers will suffer....
 
Josh seeing multiple double teams which means people will be open...
 
Both are great players...

This is the number one problem with summer basketball too much focus on games and winning and not enough on skill development. The number one problem in HS ball is some coaches not all cant figure out a system to utilize the kids they have. You cant be stuck in a system that isnt condusive to your kids. But hey what do i know im not a real coach jist a summer coach ..We could on and on about what does what. You must play defense in the summer because college coaches dont watch blow outs...lol... They will not sit thru a game like that. Also you can teach defensive princples but defense is a heart thing either you want to play it or you dont ask James Harden. 

Mamba is one of the good ones

A lot of good points made. I agree with both sides of the argument. But you can't really generalize it. It really does depend on the coach and environment of the AAU organization. I coach both AAU and High School ball, so I see the benefits from both sides. Like it or not, AAU ball does help the individual develop his skill set. If you play for a coach that just rolls the ball out and tells you to get after it and go to work, then no, the player will not develop his basketball IQ or concept of playing team basketball. Regardless, he will play tougher competition and will be better for it. It does however drive me crazy to watch coaches just play man to man an entire AAU season. They aren't learning the complete game of basketball. If these kids go to college, they will HAVE to learn multiple defenses and speeds at which to play the game. I can speak for my Defenders team and say that we run 2-3, 1-2-2. 1-3-1, man, half court traps, full court press, multiple inbound plays, press breaks...we mix it up. I teach my kids the value of keeping the other team off balance and playing to the our opponents weakness. Last year my team consisted of the following players through out the year:
Tevin Baker, John Kraemer and Dareiyus Richard from Beaumont Kelly. Jase Miguez and Kevin Howard from Nederland. Michael Saladin and Jamerson Roberts from Hardin Jefferson. Devin Ellis and Geary Senigaur from Central. Josh Hockless from Baytown Lee.
I would consider Baker, Kraemer, Richard, Miguez, Howard, Saladin and  Roberts some of the better players in SE Texas. I coach them, feed them, raise money for them, travel with them...and it's all for them. I want them to learn the game, have fun, build friendships, see new places and stay out of trouble in the summer. Last year when we went to New Orleans, it was the first time for most of the guys to be there. And wrapping up the day with Xbox tournaments in the room seems to be the highlight of their day. These are experiences that they will look back on and remember forever. So try not to paint it with a broad brush

to even qualify you wouldve had to play at least one sport and you play 0 ,so being a professional keyboarder on the web isnt one of them 

Poorly organized tournament i see why teams dont come the top of bracket looks like a war zone...lol... The bottom is a cake walk you do the math...but hey sometimes walking thru the fire aint that bad when your mentally tough and have fresh legs. Hahaha
