...and that H-J shooter didn't look to. Be 5'8". Lmbo

Well, we agree that by rule, contact after the shot is released is a foul. Not shoving that aside. We agree there. Just saying that technically and my personal belief is that a foul after the shot is gone doesn't effect the shot. Now, the passing scenario that you mentioned. A foul after the pass won't make that pass get to its intended target any more different had he not been fouled after the pass...but by rule, they'll call that foul. And yes, if a 5'8" shooter is shooting and a 6'4" defender is closing out on him, it's just a blocked shot. Real shooters look at the basket and the form while in their shooting motion, not a defender... Because if you've did your job creating space like a basketball move, step back, hesitation, running around a screen, ect, the defender won't be in position. But you know all of this before you decide to shoot. That's why I mentioned heaving.. because heaving, you aren't looking at the basket. You just trying to make sure the ball leaves your hands and avoid the defender's blocked shot attempt... On that video clip, that kid was wide open, that's why he shot it. It's just the Silsbee defender did somewhat of a good job closing out, except the band angle... My personal opinion is that shit was destined go miss and the Silsbee defender had no effect on the shot...

Good explanation, but I don't agree... When you're shooting, your focus is on the basket and your form when the ball is in your hands. Once the ball is released, unless that defender tipped that ball, the defender has no effect on that ball's trajectory or rotation. If that shooter were looking at the defender, then it was not a shot, it a heave.

Now, my personal opinion, not relevant here, I think if the foul doesn't effect the shot (fouls after ball is released) , it shouldn't be called. Again, just my personal opinion. But in real life this call is made every time. and the ref can't say that this is one of those bang bang calls either...

I saw that last shot... Out of a panel of 10 refs, all of them would've called that foul. That kid should definitely be shooting 3 free throws...

What was the final read on the dunk-o-meter? @stevenash, you seen many SMRJ's

This! I've been saying this all year. When Bray plays good, Tigers win... If not, they lose it seems..

Jersey Village and Cy-Creek would be the only teams in my opinion that could play with this United squad in region III...

Lol

Yea... Maybe a half an inch... I dint think he'll be 6'3"...

Lol. Nupe is not 6'3".

Surprised because I know there are at least 2 high flyers that start...

I'm shocked...

What did the dunk-o-meter show?

Were there any SMRJ's? And what was the dunk count?

Dunk count?

Dunk count United - 1 Channelview - 0

And Shadow Creek's first varsity team was in 2016. Silsbee we played them in Silsbee that year.. And the school is located in Pearland, but pull from Manvel area...

The high school zoning lines are pretty cut and dry. Its the middle school and elementary lines that has to be drawn that I'm aware of. Everyone should know what high school they're going to...

I second this. Congrats and keep getting better. This team has not even reached their full potential yet...

Very tough..

Great first post.... Smh

I should reserve my room this year because I took the same day trip there and back last year.

Exactly how I feel.

2 district games to play. I can realistically see a district split... And a huge payback of WB...
