Im confident that we have it in us to beat Nederland since we've done it already this year.  We'll regroup and get it together for the next meeting.  8) 8)

This game is exactly how i thought it would be.  Nederland started out hot at the begining of the game.  We made adjustments and ended up back in the game.  Ended the half playing great defense to only see Nederland make a flip up 3.  The gAme continued to remain clase until a series of key rebounds by Nederland after free throws game them maybe 6 or 7 straight points.  Now, in the 4th period, i have no idea why we went back to the zone.  I also dont know why we called off the pressure.  We used this to get back in the game.  I also dont know why we dont have set plays out of timouts or set plays at all.  We have to be able to get buckets or get open looks for buckets.  I would say we were outcoached, but this is not the case.  We forgot how to make baskets in the 4th and Nederland played their best ball and executed their game plan in this period.  Props to them.  We look forward to paying them back in the next meeting at Central.  The officiating was trash, but i cant complain because it was trash on bpth ends. 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. 

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

[/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.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="1157293" timestamp="1326216881"] All of this sounds very similar to what Coach Sutherland and his staff have done at HJ.  The HJ Little Dribblers is bigger and better than it has ever been, and the HJ coaches are involved in it. Amazing how it works...... ;) ;) ;) Congrats to Ned, and pulling for you to beat those Jags tonight!!! [/quote] ;) 8)

There are more, but that's a good start. Coach Hadnot is doing a great job, but I'd rather not see someone thrown under the bus, by an overgeneralized statement. [/quote]Let  me find out that you're a basketball fan...  ;D ;D ;) ;)

Wow.  Will Dayton win district or will Crosby have something to say about that?

Seems like he sees that the talent pool at Friendswood was a little shabby and wanted to get away while he was still a high commodity.  Pretty smart move.  He wants to avoid consecutive subpar seasons, so he'll take just one.

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="1157173" timestamp="1326176944"] Any way you want to look at it, it should still be a great game! Can't wait for tomorrow! [/quote]yes indeed!  I can't wait until later today.

[quote name="dogs1218" post="1156926" timestamp="1326149047"] I will be pulling for my Bulldogs! They know the Central players as does Central knows ours. Lots of summer games and such. This should be a really good game with both teams playing with actual purpose! I say: Bmt. Central - 53 Nederland - 57 [/quote]So, the first time they played Central won because they were not playing for a purpose?  Im sure Ozen thought the same thing after they lost to Central earlier in the season.
