HJ 70 HF 60 final

Very good

HJ 68 HF. 58 21 seconds left

HJ. 59 HF 51. 2:56 left in the 4 th

Never said my basketball knowledge was above the terrible level. On their worst day Orangefield should be 20 points better than Liberty. All that said my observation is strictly based on matchups. Silsbee’s pressure defense is going to be a problem. If the Bobcats can break the press and hit the 3 then they could keep it under 20. That’s a tall order.

I didn’t see Liberty playing within 2 either but they did.

Are the under levels playing? Why the 5:30 start ?

This one is going to get ugly . Matchup nightmare for the Bobcats

It was posted last night that it was but the post has been removed

Was the cancellation Covid related ?

This is spot on. I don’t see any Hancock, Powell , Busby type players in the pipeline. They will be very good as the get a little age on em .

I think we all get caught up in records which can be very misleading in most cases. My biggest surprise has been EC. I thought they’d be down after the players they lost to graduation. Silsbee was expected to be really good and they are holding up well to a tough schedule. BU is just on a different level than everyone else locally. If the 3 ball is falling Kountze is going to be a tough out. HJ has been impressive in pre district with a couple of wins over Nederland and a W against Barbers Hill.

EC , Kountze, Anahuac and Woodville would certainly be my picks

Anyone got a run down of the scores in this tournament?

Lufkin beat HJ in a close game a couple weeks ago.

Some solid clubs in this tournament for sure

What does Diboll look like? They usually have some kids that can go🏀

Nothing sends you flying up the rankings quite like losses to Nederland-Humble -Barbers Hill and single possession wins against power houses like WOS and Orangefield 🤦‍♂️

This district is gonna be fun for sure. HF lost to Barbers Hill tonight and Huffman beat LCM. I’ve said it since last summer whoever can steal a game on the road will win this district. Right now the Longhorns seem to be struggling but that can change quick

They’ll get better every week

A couple of things I would disagree with in this thread . First of all I think Coach Mitchell is a very good defensive coach. I have watched him for years going back to his assistant days at Hardin , where Lumberton will struggle is playing good teams that can score 70+ points a game. I’m willing to bet the Lumberton vs LCM game will be close. If it stays below 60 Lumberton has a shot if it gets above that LCM will be the favorite. Not sure I agree with HF being more athletic than HJ but they could very well be deeper. I’m gonna check out the HJ tournament this week and get my first look this year at Huffman. I haven’t seen anything that will make me change my prediction for the 4A districts. I like Silsbee to win their district easily and I think HJ wins theirs.
