I've watched that Carter game 3 times now. It was crazy how well they shot the ball. If Silsbee had been just a little off that night, they would have probably lost.

I think they were. Of course it depends on which national rankings you go by.

There may have been some Kountze teams that would have a shot at Silsbee from the past two years. No way do I think any Lion team beats the 2016 - 2017 bunch. That group was truly loaded. They won a state title DESPITE losing Devin McCain. They also came within, I think, 3 or 4 points of beating 6A finalist Wagner that year.

Next year would be a perfect time for a Kountze vs Silsbee game. Tigers are gonna be very young and inexperienced next season, although plenty talented.

I don't think any of our top players had good nights. Bush definitely wasn't his usual self. Neither was Martin. Missed about half a dozen shots at the rim he'd usually make. Cartwright was also a non factor tonight. I think Harper played nearly the entire second half. Good seeing one of our young cats getting quality time. Overall this is the worse I've seen Silsbee (real Silsbee) play all year. Don't know if I should be glad we still nearly won by 20, or worried that it might carry over into the next game.

Make that 3 good defensive plays for Harper, plus a basket. Tigers up 19.

Harper with 2 nice defensive plays. Tigers up 51 - 34.

Cartwright really having an off night.

If the 3 ball keeps falling for them, this might be a game.

Make that 6 six 3 pointers.

Five three pointers for BC already. Silsbee up 22 - 20.

Tigers up 17 - 15 after one.

Tiger JV won 60 - 38.

I expect a very focused and motivated Silsbee team for the game tomorrow. If it ends up being close 🤷‍♂️

Bridge City also put up a good fight the first game against Silsbee. We'll see how the second meeting goes Tuesday. BTW, Tiger 8th grade keeps rolling. Beat Hamshire Fanette 79 - 37, or something like that. A little closer than the BC game. Kids might of had an off night or something.

Silsbee needs to understand they're still gonna get everyone's best effort when they play. Nobody is gonna get hyped up or excited to play and potentially beat Bride City or LCM. Some of these boys did look a little too relaxed during warm ups tonight.

Can I do both? Good job Raiders for playing a hell of a game. Refs were still trash.

Remember last year when Hardin Jefferson almost beat a Silsbee team with Jordyn Adams? That's what this felt like. Remember how that rematch went. I wouldn't overreact to the outcome of this game. Silsbee has beaten teams with big men like LaGrange and Nederland. Even Hamshire Fannett has a decent big. Tigers beat them by 30. Raiders and number 24 had the game of their lives tonight and still lost. It's all good though. Better for teams to keep Silsbee on their toes, no matter who they're playing.

He's pretty good till you make him go to his left. Didn't want the ball then. Dunk count 1 -0 Silsbee. Yes we're gonna count that. Can't wait for the rematch. Best believe Tiger claws and fangs will be extra sharp for it.

Refs are trash.

He's playing now.

He said something to either a ref or a Raider. Not sure which one it was.

Cartwright might be done for the night. We'll see if Coach Sig plays him the second half or not.

Tiger JV wins. 51 - 38.

Haven't had Hamburger Depot in a while. They're definitely better than Burger King. Still more of a Willy Burger or Daddios person if I had to choose. Serious question: Is Bush crazy enough to keep playing basketball in Off Whites? I hope whoever paid for those got them for retail.
