Game was 2 hrs 45 minutes.  There was no flow in the 2nd half.  I have officiated games and I understand that you do the best you can but these guys would come to the scorers table and have to figure out who the foul was on.  They also messed up the timeouts in the OT which prevented OF from calling TO at the end of the game.  Once again if OF makes FT's it is mute point but it was still worst called game for both teams that I have ever witnessed.  If the chapter is that low then I agree put them on the same night so that we can have quality games where officials don't determine the outcome of the game the players do.

Probably the worst officiated game I have ever seen in 30 years of bball on both sides.  The chapter must really need bodies for these guys to get to call games.  With all of that said you can't shoot less than 50% from foul line on the road and expect to win.

With everyone back will compete for district title this year.  As we saw over the last few seasons anyone can beat anyone on a given night.

Gunstream from OF will surprise alot of people, he was out last season but will average double double this season.

Actually you got it backwards, really good learning to play together.

Zeek, gave credit to Turner, just no way that those other 2 are the tops at their position.  When those statements are made it just is crazy.

I thought that Avery had really good game, he is aggressive inside.

After seeing both teams play I left the game with no idea how HJ pulled this one off.  Kountze has the best team by far, I don't see how they didn't win by 30.  I realize HJ has Turner but scoring wise not much else.  He must have had alot of steal and easy buckets that night which is his type of game.

I think all teams are going to be better by district just saying that I think you saw the formula for beating HJ last night.  Turner got his points off the press but when it got to half court set the others were very controlled as they have very difficult time creating their own shots.  I agree there is a good reson for them to be in the corner and when they were wide open they can knock down the shots, but otherwise they were completely shut down as they have to rush shots and are not as good of shooters.  Still don't agree on Ricossa, he's tall but they were ablt to muscle him out in the 2-3, wasnt until they went to the 1-2-2 and opened up middle that he was able to do anything.  But as you said, I am sure they will get better.

Silsbee looked really good, Prentice played really good

Turner is great off the press, not as good in half court set, even centrals coach was yelling that he cant shoot.  Then you have the 2 kids in the corner who stay there the entire game, do not move from their spot.  Ricossa is ok but not very strong, got some easy baskets last night but that was about it.  IF and I say if you can get by Turner on the press it is pretty easy after that.  Turner is going to be able to get his points off defensive transition but the others still can't create their own shot which is going to make it tough if Turner has off night.  Was curious as to why the Smith kid did not play until 2 minutes to go in the game.

Wish they would do this for all sports

No point in playing that game, it would have been a blowout.

OF Silsbee Fresh/JV 14-14

Great defense tonight

We have the talent, just have to make sure that we play as a team. With such a deep senior class you would think that we would not have some of this crap but time will tell. Just depends on which team shows up on a given night.

Deepest group we have had in the last several years. Other than losing Angelle we have everyone coming back including our post who was out all last season due to a football injury. I still think that WOS is the biggest unknown as they looked to have a couple of shooters that have developed this summer. Overall I think every team has some questions, from outside shooting to the post each team will have its challenges. I think the district is wide open and the team that comes out on top is going to be the one that can protect home and steal a couple on the road. Predict a play in game for someone at the end.

Orangefield and Silsbee would be 2-0

Think it will be more like eating HAWK!

They have no idea what this offense looks like, can't wait till Friday already.

Then it would come down to pts and OF would win that one easy.

Not sure it will depend on how many possessions that OF has. No one has been able to really stop this offense, some have contained it with 40 pts but don't see HJ being able to do anything with this.

I think we could have had 70 tonight had we not called the dogs off in the 3rd. I actually expect to score everytime we have the ball.

You must be passing all classes at progress report to be eligible if you failed the 6 weeks.

I think our drinks are colder.
