[/quote] Ya Zeek, looks like you know your basketball!  8) You've said it a few times now (about LCM). They must have had a really bad game when they played Central last week. [/quote]LC-M's guard play is suspect.  If they get it down low, it's over.  We denied their bigs.  Also, their guards were hesetant to fire up the 3 ball.  The court was never spreaded.  We just sat in their big's front pocket all night.

Good win for Ozen.

When a team is facing the 2 time district Champions, teams flock to the gyms to hopefully see their team dethrone the Champs.  It was like that when Ozen was always winning district.  You wanted to be there to see your team knock off the champs.

You have to box out and you have to be able to make shots in the 4th.  Call a time out and work a play to get an easy basket.  If nothing, drive in and draw a foul.  I guess that was a moot point since we were horrible from the free throw line as well.  >:(

[quote name="robanadana" post="1157845" timestamp="1326284801"] From what I saw on the Carl Padilla site, we will be 21-4A with seven teams in district instead of eight. Livingston is moving to where they belong. No Dayton (and I'm one of the people who DON'T want them in our district). One purple team is enough. [/quote]I  hope that's true so there can be 4 nondistrict games instead of 3 to prepare.

I'm not buying the racial stuff either.  I'm sure the real reason will come to light soon.

There's another game to be played....  this time at Central.  So, It may not happen...  8)

The major thing that ive seen was no good box outs and way too many putback attempts by Weisbrod and co. It'll be straightened out.

Dunk count was at 0, but there were some key plays on dunk attempts.  K Smith got his dunk attempt blocked from behind and #21 for Nederland got his dunk blocked by our shortest man, a 5'6" freshmen on a breakaway dunk.  Lets rebound Friday, Jags, get better and get those bulldogs next time. [/quote] I'm guessing he stopped the pressure, because it wasn't effective, and it led to some easy buckets for Ned. [/quote]It was effective.  It lead to some consecutive turnovers.

It looked like Gullery (sp) was the only one back for Central.  I didnt see Smith.

How do you figure I'm jealous?  I'm happy for the Nederland program. 

[quote name="stevenash" post="1157436" timestamp="1326228972"] I guess "use him" implied that the offensive player could do whatever he wanted with the defender on him.  Got it straight off the streets in Orange many many years ago. [/quote]Oh.  Ok.  Gotcha.  8)

[/quote]'Use him'?  I've heard of 'abuse him' meaning that the defender cannot keep the offensive player from doing what he wanted to do.
