[/quote] They are good, but beatable. Nothing spectacular, just an all around good team. They don't have a Prudhomme or K. Smith type player. Nederland should match up well against them. [/quote]Actually, those are the more dangerous teams in the playoffs.  Those teams that are well rounded are very hard to stop.  You can't key in on just one or 2 things.  They do a lot of things well from different spots whereas teams with your K. Smiths and your S. Prudhommes, you know where the damage will come from.  Don't let your guard down.  Consider ALL of these teams dangerous.  At the same time, Nederland has it's strength.  Coaching and great roll players and a couple of big gamers in Weisbrod and English.  (English showed a playoff flare/swagger that I like in the game vs. Dayton).

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1183265" timestamp="1329947605"] Never take the dunk o meter to a Yates game! It can't handle that kind of performance above the rim. [/quote]Ha ha!

Naw.  I'll be at Summer Creek watching them Jags!

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1183202" timestamp="1329943493"] Something tells me a sell out is coming! How many people does Lee College hold? 6500? [/quote]I'm not sure of the capacity, but trust me, it will hold the crowd. 

I've just left the doubleheader with Ozen and Central playoff games.  Actually, there was a  doubleheader last year as well.  VERY nice venue.  Lots of room and space and in comfortable confines.  The only thing is that parking can be brutal.  I don't know about this weekend or if the college kids will be hanging around, but I know that I parked accross the street and had to walk maybe 3 or 4 blocks to get to the gym.  That's nothign to yall die hard fans.  I know  you can handle a little walking.  8) 8)

I love articles that show love to the seniors.  Each one of these kids are undisputed leaders on their team.  I hope they do well this year and beyond!

Is the 'device' up and running after overloading in the Yates/Wheatly game for this matchup?

That will do nothing for your pick 'ems.  Yates is not included in the pickems, therefore, you cannot use that as your springboard!  ;)

[quote name="ABSENT!" post="1183029" timestamp="1329928563"] :oThe strangest thing that I hacve ever saw.... Someoen stay in a box and 1 for 3 1/2 quaters.  Box an 1 is a situational defense that you play in moderation, it is NOT a defense you use for an entire game.  WWWAAAYYY too many holes, both on the wings and in the post.  Last night Central got abused on the wings with a baradge of 3-pointers.  They went to man for the final 6 minutes and CE King could not score.  I also have an issue going box and 1 on a skinny 5'8" guard without exceptional leaping skills.  Either play 2-3 to kill his drives or help-side man to address his shooting.  LASTLY, HAVE THESE KIDS BEEN TAUGHT HOW TO BREAK A PRESS???[i]I don't think so[i] On a lighter note I am amazed at the kids natural abilities and understanding of the game and passing lanes.  Once in a set they back cut and find the open man really well.  Kristian is super aggressive, I wish it would catch fire in the other kids.  This team will lose BIG rto a team with an above average press.  Bad part about that, is they are talented enough, but not trained enough to break the press.  Ozen has at least three true point guards, must be nice! [/quote]He have the freshman PG, but he was not ready for a big playoff game like this one with turnovers off the bat, so he was removed and we inserted a Sr. PG, which was a good move.  The box and 1, I agree, should have been called off.  I would like to know how many UNCONTESTED 3 pointers we gave up.  It was like warmups for King.  You can't do that and expect to advance in these playoffs.  I'm glad that the golf ball I threw at the staff's head jogged him brain back to regular human being thoughts or we would have lost this one.

The dunk was ONLY big by default because of the lack of SMRJ durring crunch time.  Key word is default.  ;D ;D ;) ;)

[quote name="PoppaBearstarr" post="1182979" timestamp="1329924508"] Still the paper even acknowledges the dunk over a sweet midrange jumper....what is basketball coming to....I am glad that Central won. [/quote]In crunch time, there were no SMRJ's made by Central, only clutch free throws and drives to the basket.  And of course, the big putback dunk by Wilridge.

:o :o :o :o Was that a disgrace to the Hawk Gym?  ;D ;D SMRJ's?

A game in Hawk Gym?  What was the ending dunk count in this one?

Tigers win by 3.
