Yates Wins By 100


Recommended Posts

What you said is very true in the inner city where atheletes are a dime a dozen...  But in the annexed areas such as Cypress, Fort Bend, Pearland, Deer Parks, even old Northshore there is coaching going on!!!  The less the talent the more the coaching...  So many schools in this area need to have good coaching....

Traditionally the only basketball talent has been at Lincoln, Central, Westbrook, Kountz, Silsbee, HJ, Brookland, and occassionally EC...

On the flip side of that, you need coaching where there is an abundance of talent as well.  See, what coaches often do not realize is that playoff basketball is COMPLETELY different from the regular season...(Ask Wheatley  ;)) That is the MAJOR difference...You can't expect the press that worked in November to be effective the exact same way in late February...Teams scout other teams, and teams improve, usually...You must do SOME things different, or you will be a memory come playoff time..There will be no more 100-97 games....games will be in the 50's and 60's and sometimes the 30's and 40's!! That is where MOST Houston squads will fall off...I am telling you...trust me! ;)

The scrubs dissappear come play-off time and thats why the 40 - 60s game come in.....  And real coaches show up!

Willie has his hands full with Anthony Jones.  There is no glaring position stregnth or weakness other than that!

The difference is Boutte will slow the game down and Yates is not as good in the half court...  Giving Ozen the opportunity for victory...  But be careful because Yates is a third quarter team so you want to be up by ten at the half!

Well, I have said this before.....Anthony Jones wants badly to play on the perimeter...If he does...Just wait until mid to late February...Both teams must first get through district and then win some playoff games before even thinking of facing off.... ::)....One game at a time....BUT, I CANNOT WAIT! ;)

DickieV - here is a coaching tip..

I really want Ozen to lose but if it is not to Central I want them to go all the way!!!!!

The key to stopping Yates is not their big D1 prospect...  The true catalyst to Yates team is the point guard Xavier Roberson...  This kid is smart, strong, and mentally ready.... He palys with a chip on his shoulder too.  He will have the ball in his hands at the end of the game not Anthony.   However he is overly aggressive at times on the defensive end of the game... He is smart enough to play in foul trouble but it will limit him.  Be aggressive with him when he is on defense, and take the ball out of his hand on offense!  Without him they wouldnt be where they are now.

Coaching tip? for me? Gee, thanks... ::)....Yates guard play is good, but it won't beat you on both ends of the floor like a 6'10 COULD...They CANNOT shoot, however they rely on other teams guards to make mistakes, i.e. turnovers, and they capitilize and finish well.  Thanks for the "tip" though, my friend.. ::)...

They have two lights out shooters of the bench!!!  One decent one starting...  But they are all slashers and of course you know that...  Every close game I have seen of Yates Roberson takes the last shoots....... OK :o ;D ;)

Don't look a gift in the mouth!

Well Roberson, from what I have seen, is a scorer...He is not really a shooter...A guy that can score will sometimes make shots, and may even get hot at times, but a shooter is wayyyy more dangerous.  Daniel Gibson was a shooter...so dangerous...Daniel Ewing (Willowridge) could shoot, but was a scorer...Kenny Taylor (Willowridge) was the shooter. dangerous. Get the difference.  I see what you are saying, though.  ;)

I did not say Roberson was a shooter.. I said he was a finisher that will be the one finishing games...  Like Carlos Hurd... Remember! Elsik kid... that went on to be named Mr. basketball in Kentucky only to be thrown out by Rick Patino (spelling) at Louisville?

But I feel your comments too!

Allright, here you make a valid point. I watched a game last year between a very quick undisciplined team and a VERY slow, well coached team. The well coached team wins out every time. When you find a coach with disciplined kids that can change the pace of the game and play to another teams weaknesses then you win ball games. I don't care how fast or individually talented your opponent is, if you aren't well coached you won't go far!

well, austin is an impressive 3-21.  i'm curious to see what they've been losing their other games by.  we've seen some results nearing 100 in this area too, but it seems like the coaches here are decent enough to call off the dogs.  the game was 72-18 at halftime, but they kept pouring it on, outscoring their opponent 61-15 in the second half.  it seems to me that when a team in southeast texas is up like that at halftime, they find a way to make it a little closer in the second half to make things reasonable.

Nah! You gotta understand the mentality of the game (inner city schools)from outside of Southeast Texas. It's an aggressive game and thats the only way to play the game. You don't change your game plan because you're playing a weaker team. You play the way you practice. You practice the way you play.

    • Heading into the summer and before two a days get going… what are some concerns or positives about your team heading into next season? I’d like to hear from some H-F people because according to some they are the district favorites heading into the season. I’m just trying to pass some time at least until we get our DCTF magazines lol For Bellville my concern is filling some holes on defense… specifically at LB,S, and DT… bright spots ? Basically the entire offensive line returns that paved the way for 3 RBs to rush for more than 1600 yards a  on the season (2 of those RBs will return as well). With all that said Bellville should still be a region favorite this upcoming season.
    • That’s not a choice, it’s the same thing and equally dangerous.    I’ve literally heard (with my own listening ears) the R County Chairman boast in a speech that “the only time I’ve ever voted for a Democrat was when I voted for Hillary in the Democrat primary! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!” You’ll never guess who is tweeting all over the place about how we need closed primaries this week.  Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  Escalation of force.  These are concepts that you completely understand and teach.  Whatever we do today, we’ll pay for tomorrow. Impeach a President over something stupid? They’ll impeach yours twice.  Promise to lock up your political rival if you get elected? You can’t cry over somebody else doing it to you… even if you were just blowing a little smoke for the morons.   The old days of “don’t throw rocks if you live in glass houses” has now become “I’m pretty sure I’ve got more rocks than they do.” The frightening thing is that Ds only do it to Rs. Rs do it to Ds and other Rs alike without hesitation.  
    • Definitely does NOT sound like a fit for PN-G.
    • No offense, but both sides do it.  The Rs in Texas want to do away with decades of precedent and demand that Dems are no longer given chair positions on any committees in the Tx House. It sounds reasonable enough, until you arrive at a point when the Ds enjoy a single seat majority in the house, select the most leftist speaker of all times, and the refuse to give Rs any say in the legislative process by refusing to give them any committee chairs.     Experience has shown me that any time a party seeks to consolidate power in a legislative body, it backfires.    What I don’t like is a world where we cheer for Manchin for doing his own thing, but also re-elect guys like Paxton and Patrick when they make threats to R Legislators if they don’t do exactly what the Radical Right demands. Our Rep here in Hardin County lost his spot for voting against private school vouchers-his wife is a teacher. He also voted his conscience on the Paxton impeachment.  It cost him his seat…. Not because of the will of the voters in his district, but because if millions of outside dollars pumped into the race from outside the district and even an endorsement of his unknown challenger by Donald Trump himself.    Why do people like you applaud Manchin for being his own man and then vote against Phelan for doing the same thing?
