Wait!! The town isn’t named after a small pig ? 😂😂😂😂

One other thing I can say about Hefner out of Nederland, he is one of the most unselfish offensive players I’ve ever seen. His average is probably misleading because he could score at will.

I’ve seen all of them except the young man from United and you’d have a strong argument. In his defense when I watched Hefner he wasn’t nearly 100% coming back from knee surgery. All of these kids are legit.

Shooting is definitely a skill that can be taught to anyone. “Making “ is the objective however and that’s a little more difficult 😂

I agree shooting the basketball is one of the most important things to be taught in the game of basketball however it isn’t nearly the only thing. I would hate to see the high school game follow the path of some of the other leagues where the first person to grab it jacks it up. My question is what is your goal for “player development “ ? At the high school varsity level most kids have reached their ceilings in competitive basketball . There are numerous things that can be done by the coaches to counteract the stall, it’s part of the strategy of the game which is still the best there is .

I’m not sure LCM gave the district the script to beat Lumberton. The Raiders got beat by 22 earlier in the week. Their biggest problem and the key to beating them is lack of depth. Tired legs and foul trouble are the Raiders undoing.

That’s strictly an opinion. I love fast paced basketball but that’s not the only way to play. Teams that can recruit the better athletes ( colleges) benefit from this. In high school tempo is the great equalizer.

Dean Smith was pretty successful doing this in certain situations for years. I hate it but it works if you have a lead and the discipline to stay with it.

Those type kids aren’t going to make you better if they stay. Given the opportunity Coach T will make them better

Last time I saw Buna’s JV they weren’t what I’d call a powerhouse. Kirbyville I think will get better as Coach Williams gets the kids to buy in but that doesn’t look good unless the Varsity is really young.

Goodness that would be a beating

I think they lost to HJ’s group of Freshman in the Huffman tournament.

Nederland and Memorial should be a great game to watch as a fan of the game. The Bulldogs should handle BH pretty easily.

Very well coached team

This one was a little more one sided than I thought it would be. I was hoping Warren was a little better this year than in recent years.

Yes sir, I don’t think the Raiders went over 6 or 7 deep last night and the subs didn’t get a lot of minutes.

I think the Baxter kid hit a 3 in the first half that he was fouled on and then hit the FT to complete the 4 point play. Lack of depth really hurts the Raiders.

Times have changed in high school hoops
