Not bad for a group that’s not gonna be able to score 😂 -
Hamshire-Fannett 48 Livingston 51/FINAL
whsalum replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
I called this one yesterday afternoon in a conversation with a friend. HF beat Livingston this past Saturday in a tournament in a close game. This had the feeling of the ultimate trap game! -
Man I hate that stuff is flaring back up

HD is having a rough year. Does BS have a bunch of kids sick ??

Huffman-Hargrave 47 Hardin-Jefferson 85/Final
whsalum replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
I can remember some folks questioning my basketball IQ when I suggested HJ would be as good as last year. I agree with you, I think they are a little better. Not quite as deep but pretty solid. -

Some were saying a two team race between HF and Huffman 😂 -

Gotcha. I can agree with that. I had also heard that one of Huffmans returning starters transferred to another school district and didn’t play basketball this year. -

What’s not normal about the circumstances?? HJ shoots it well at home “ Always “. The secret for Huffman has always been to control the boards and the tempo. The Falcons win the match ups when they hold the score in the 40-50 point range. The 80+ games the Hawks always win! -
I’m floored. I watched Warren and Hull Daisetta early this year and didn’t think either club would be competitive.
-
They got a good one
-
If Williams is still in Kirbyville he’s a good one as well .

6 teams can beat each other in this district. EC , Buna, Kountze, Anahuac, Newton and Woodville. It seems like to the onlookers that Woodville and Newton both place a decided emphasis on football or they could both have really good basketball programs.

Good win for the Hawks -
Hardin-Jefferson 53 Silsbee 77/FINAL

I don’t think Silsbee has HF on the schedule this year. -
Hamshire-Fannett 60 Hardin-Jefferson 70/FINAL
whsalum replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
Just a few observations: (1). Analytics and Offensive stats are a waste of paper in high school basketball .They can be very misleading by outings against weaker competition . (2). The best judge of a “go to player” are the kids themselves. The opposing defense may limit that player’s ability to get the ball but the players know who should have it. (3). If we have a coach at any level who doesn’t know if his best players are on the floor during crunch time he’s probably in the wrong profession. I haven’t seen a local coach who doesn’t know where his best players are. -
Hardin-Jefferson 53 Silsbee 77/FINAL
whsalum replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
Silsbee shot it pretty well after the first quarter. HJ had a stretch where shot selection was questionable and they got beat on the boards. The Hawks will have to play 4 quarters of almost perfect basketball to upset the tigers. Nothing is impossible in the hoops game though. Great way to spend the afternoon. -

I’ll be there to enjoy a basketball game. Something I’ve done for the past 60+ years. I hope it’s a good one. -
Hamshire-Fannett 60 Hardin-Jefferson 70/FINAL
whsalum replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
I’ll be the first to admit I’m watching as a fan. I’ll also agree you’re watching as a dad. # 23 has a ton of potential, especially on the offensive end. What I saw the other night was a player with very little big game experience that wasn’t quite sure how to step up in the moment. Defensively I wasn’t impressed with HF. I still stick by my pre season prediction. I think HJ is clearly the best club in the district. Once again we probably aren’t going to agree on any of this and that’s ok. That’s what these threads are for. -

I think we watched two different games lol -
Thanks

I haven’t looked at a bracket this year but I think it would be at the regional tournament
-
You never know what you’re going to get with these early afternoon games when the kids are out of school. Silsbee should be the favorite at home by 10.

Yes sir

We are 17 games into the season if roles haven’t been defined by now it’s probably not gonna happen this year. I don’t know anything HF’s new coach but he looked like he had a pretty good handle on things last night. I know they have an assistant that was a top notch head guy in the area for years.
