[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1154962" timestamp="1325798036"] Would HJ beat them down? [/quote]Would not come close. AND, Yates is an okay team compared to what they had two years ago.Two years ago, they were a nationally competitive team. Still good today but....

Reminds me of game I saw and the kid has a breakaway dunk to win the game or maybe tie. Memory slipping. He blew the dunk. Could have just as easily laid the ball up.

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="1154775" timestamp="1325782308"] Dove, quit agreeing all the time. You're getting soft. ;D [/quote]Sad isn't it? But can't wait till Nederland is on the schedule. ;)

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1154772" timestamp="1325782122"] I'd like to see Yates vs HJ Silsbee vs Central and Ozen vs Memorial. [/quote]Now Santa, you want to see a preview game, right? But you already know the outcome if Yates played HJ?

In defense for BadSanta, I've actually found him to be very knowledgeable about the topic of basketball.

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1154762" timestamp="1325781074"] Dove, could  your new team, Ozen, have beaten H-J? [/quote] :-X

All the above BUT! Mine is the clincher!  [s]100%[/s] Well [s]99.9%[/s] 99.5% sure way to beat them.

I just told Steve Nash how a team could beat HJ. I could tell he had a little skepticism. After exposing HJ's weakness, I think he was in full agreement that my strategy would work . Nash, I won't tell any coaches, I promise  ::)

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1154691" timestamp="1325772869"] I've seen some kids that had this ability.  So far, I've seen a kid that consistantly gets this midrange pullup jumper on fast break transition, and that's C. Williams for Ozen.  I have yet to see him miss it.  Maybe he needs to do it more. [/quote]I think I know who you are talking about. Good player and nice mid game.

Now, the dunk count is not limited to H_J Basketball.  My Jags as well as other teams have had games with several dunks.  Also, AAW was right on the other thread.  You see more timouts called after a 3 point shot than after a dunk. [/quote]What is this mid range jumper that you speak of?....lol.... [/quote]I'll repeat myself.  I said I would rather see a consistant midrange jumper than a dunk. [/quote]"You took the words outta my month." Lost art. Too hard to shoot now, I guess. Too many *thunks* at mid range now. ;D

Its probably more a pride game or bragging rights more than anything else. Both will make playoffs and will have to focus on playoff games, which is what this is all about. If Silsbee beat HJ twice in district and lose in first round of playoffs.......unproductive season. ;)

After looking at the directions on Google Earth, I'm having second thoughts about making that drive ;D [/quote]It's a heck of a drive with little scenery on the way there.  I have to make the trip every other year for football.  The drive for a 2 1/2 hour football games makes more sense than a 45 minute to 1 hour basketball game.  ;D [/quote]Maybe if I make the Freshman game. That would justify about 3 hours of basketball

LOL! Bucket, a year and half ago, I would have said you were day dreaming. But anything is possible

Dear Nash, I've finally come to terms and maybe our lives have come full circle. That only you and I can appreciate the beauty of this pix.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1154246" timestamp="1325690572"] If your 6'6 and you get on a fast break and you don't try a dunk, you need to invest in a pair on jumping shoes. Your already 8/10th of the way to the rim when you hold your hands up! [/quote]Oh, I would expect this. But my point being, it would seem more exciting to see a 5'6" player dunking ;)

See, there are always two sides to every story. I knew there was an explanation for an officer telling another to get up off a kid.  ;)

No, thats called double standards ;)
