whsalum

The Hawks had the perfect game plan in this one. I had said in an earlier post to keep the game in the 50-60 point range and control the tempo to give themselves a shot, which they did. I think they won the battle of the boards. At the end of the day the 24 turnovers were the difference in this one and that’s a credit to Silsbee’s 3/4 court defense. Gotta tip your cap to both coaches last night. Clay did everything he could to give his group a chance and Sigler spreading the floor at the 5:00 minute mark of the 4th cemented the win. Good ballgame, great season Hawks and Good luck Tigers!!

Priceless 😂😂😂

Yes sir it is, without controlling the tempo though the Tigers advantage grows

For HJ to have a legitimate shot in this one they’ll have to dictate the pace. If they can keep the tempo in the 60 point range and keep the post player involved they’ll have a chance. If it turns into a track meet the advantage goes quickly back to the Tigers.

Congrats Hawks

Yes sir

The difference in this one was rebounding in the second half. Kountze tightened it up early in the 3rd quarter when #10 hit a couple of deep 3’s but the live and die with the 3 ball hurt em in the end. If the Lions develop a post presence of any kind to help Sells they are going to be a pretty good club going forward.

Buna gonna have to hit some free throws and they’ll put this away

He was pretty deep lol

I believe Sells just picked up #4

Kountze with a couple of quick 3’s

Kountze is cold from deep but offensive rebounds are keeping them within striking distance.

Kountze more than held their own on the glass in the first

They’ve got as good a group of officials as there are anywhere

I would give the slight edge to Buna. Call me crazy but i never liked this venue for a shooting club that lives by the 3 ball . I’ll take the Cougars by 4

Kountze’s biggest weakness this year appears to me be their lack of size. The young guys aren’t big enough yet to beat anyone up on the press. There’s gonna be some growing pains . If the long ball is falling they are going to be in the game if not it gets ugly quick.

Very true

I would agree 100%

This game was closer than the final score .Great atmosphere ,full house with two pretty solid teams.

What’s the word on the play in game??

Picked a couple of quick fouls

And just think, this used to be a basketball topic 🏀😂😂

Yes sir I didn’t say they turned the program around, someone asked what happened in 2009. My response was addressing that question lol

Both of these guys can coach. I watched Brian take a Buna club to the playoffs against Woodville over at Kountze and beat a Woodville club that he probably shouldn’t have . Coach Wilson stepped in behind the scenes over at HJ when Coach Davis family was dealing with some very serious health issues and did an outstanding job. Buna has had the misfortune of being in the district with some good basketball schools over the years and this year there will be one pretty good club on the outside of the playoffs looking in. Best of luck to both coaches, they are both good men and better role models.
