Oh God, when this Nederland frosh group move up to varsity, this whole basketball forum will spread like a virus about those Ned. 2016 players  ;)

Nope, wasn't coaches fault players got out hustled on rebounds, missed layups, Silsbee guard (s) blowing by Central defenders, etc.

Will Central's ranking drop after the loss to Silsbee?

Central will be okay. Get those tickets for Austin ready

[/quote] As far as today, Central didn't lose behind any coaching. No execution on the court [/quote] Or perhaps the better team won? Also, in regard to coaching:  If players are not executing, wouldnt it be a prerogative of the coach to replace them with someone who could execute, particularly in light of the fact that so much has been discussed about Centrals depth? [/quote] 53240463] Thank you very much for bringing that up, man.  If 15 kids were suited up, then that means the entire team could have possibly been benched..  BTW, the task of finding a consistent starting is still going on and probably will be until district. [/quote]Good point Souljah! Nash, Central played about 10-14 players.

TigerNation!! I like this. Good rallying cry

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1335606" timestamp="1353204972"] Looks like they are gonna need a few more move ins [/quote]Not really! Travis is 5-A. Yates only has to deal with the smaller 3-A teams in their region.

Silsbee was too quick for Central and no answer for proudmom's son inside. I could hear the Silsbee coach tell his kids not to worry about the outside shooters, but protect the inside.

[quote name="Who By Fire" post="1335889" timestamp="1353216375"] The foul count at the game today was ridiculously high. At the half, Central had at least 16 fouls called against them. Silsbee was also in double bonus. The first half took about 75 minutes to complete.  The game might have been different if the kids had been allowed to play. [/quote] I disagree. The kids were allowed to play. There were some hard fouls being called in the first half. And a few I saw the refs let slide. They allowed the boys to play. Plus, Silsbee missed quite a few of their foul shots.

[/quote] He is saying that bc Ned Freshman beat WB JV yesterday, then WB JV beat Ned JV today and they are celebrating (maybe excessively, I don't know). [/quote] Exactly... Coach English didnt want the freshman and JV teams to play each other in the championship, so WB (who the NED Frehman beat) played in their spot in the championship.  NED freshman beat OF and finished the tournament 4-0.  Freshman got the third place trophy while WB walked out with the First Place Trophy celebrating like they won the NBA Finals. [/quote] I guess Nederland should be mentioned with as much respect towards basketball. I mean look at what they have accomplished: [font=comic sans ms]20-4A District Champs 2010-2012 Bi-District Champs 2010-2012 Area Champs 2010-2012 Regional Quarter Finalist 2010-2012 Regional Semi-Finalist 2011[/font] 8)

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1335695" timestamp="1353209185"] Really not that interested in any more cliches.  Was curious if you had a response to somebody elses suggestion that either Silsbee is extra good or Central isnt that good. [/quote] My cliche as you called it was my answer. Well, a partial answer I guess.  Silsbee won because they played with heart & determination. I'll take this b4 having talent, which was evident in this game. In fact, I mentioned this to a Silsbee supporter before the game. Central will be okay. They had a reality check today and hopefully a sleeping beast has not awakened.

He said not even the coach can mess up with the talent Central have this year.

[quote name="dogs1218" post="1332611" timestamp="1353089171"] I don't think it would matter if silsbee had all there players or not.. I pick central by 8 with silsbee at full strength [/quote] Thank you!

Hj has one great player and 2 good players... Didn't impress me at all. Sorry. Kountze, y'all gotta play better. That was not how y'all play [/quote] If HJ had Lebron and Kobe, you would have said the same thing.  YOur personal bias against is so sadly obvious.  But, the good news is, all the negative comments you make have no effect on the effectiveness of their performance tonight.  And sorry, a margin that substantial is not attributable to someone playing bad. [/quote] If they had Lebron and Kobe, they would have 2 great players, 1 really good player(Johnson), 2 decent players (bosha and #22). Watch when they play silsbee and you will agree with me. Keep the ball out of Johnson's hand and it's over. Watch and see [/quote]In high school, all you need are two good players. On an average, my guess is that most high schools have at least two very good players surrounded by other good/average players.
