Fighting Llama

This is the last I'm saying about argyle/center because obviously this is an argyle/silsbee thread. 
As for refs...Yea I think they could've been better. Do I think they beat center? Not exactly. Center was 10-17 from FT's for the game and missed 9 or so shots right around the bucket (4ft or less) if I counted correctly (I've watched the film twice now). If half of these go in and a few more FT's we win by double digits. Cookie just didn't crumble our way Friday evening. Just how it goes sometimes. With that said, I do have some interesting numbers that I wrote down. Through 3 qtrs, center had a total of 8 fouls called against them, while argyle had 13. I think there were a couple missed calls both ways through 3 qtrs. The score was 36-34 argyle's favor heading to 4th. In the 4th qtr, argyle committed 3 fouls. 2 of which were intentional "take" fouls with under 1 min to go. Center, on the other hand, had 8 fouls called against them in the 4th. Only 1 was intentional, late in 4th. Argyle shot 6-12 from FT's in the 4th, Center was 0-0. Argyle did not have a made FG over the last 4:30 or so of the game. All points from then on were FT's. 
It was unfortunate for Center, but it is what it is. Life goes on. I'll be pulling for the Tigers to get it done against Argyle Friday afternoon.

Its because you're trying to be confused. ...which makes you look ignorant. They're not going to be careless and play a sloppy game. I never said they got away with mistakes. Its not a mistake if you're not called for it, right? As rider78 stated, their guards push off alot...#5 more so than #3. But they do it in a way that is very subtle. Its not that eye popping, without a doubt, full extension push off that leaves the defender off balance and awkward looking. One thing they were called for multiple times, though, was a moving screen. I bet they had 5 or 6 of those calls go against them...which, I would say probably isn't too terribly bad given the number of screens they set.
I hope silsbee wins. Some folks asked for opinions on argyle, so that's what I offered. I would venture to say they will likely be the least athletic team in San Antonio this weekend. But they don't win with athleticism. They win with discipline. 
Good luck

Silsbee just needs to do what got them their. Play THEIR game. Make them make adjustments to you. 

By far, "over the back".  No such rule...

Let's get one thing straight, Devon's punishment was not solely based off that 9 second video. Complete video's from both teams were viewed, people were interviewed and decisions were made based off that info.
SISD and it's athletic programs have policies that deal with fighting. The punishment was based on all that criteria.
I feel really bad for the young man. He made a terrible decision. He now has to face the consequences. I hope he learns from this incident tremendously. Everyone makes mistakes or makes bad decisions. You just cannot keep making the same mistakes or bad decisions.

No matter what the punishment was it wasn't too much.  Bottom line...the punishment could've been avoided altogether.
Don't get in trouble and there are zero negative consequences.  Simple concept.
