The problem is that Silsbee AND HJ are far and away the best 2 4a programs in this area. To lose those two games with a playoff-type atmosphere is costly to both teams IMO.

No doubt

Too hard to get 2 coachs to agree, much less 4, but.... wish they would flip for Montagne Center if Beaumont wins or like the Merrill Center if FB wins.

I agree Soulja. And as much as it pains me to defend OF... Although most of us know he is way off on English, it's hard to argue his opinion has anything to do with race. After all, I believe in another thread (I'm too lazy to find it) he stated that Sutherland is the best active coach in the area. I think Todd is still white.

To answer the original question posed, I think Trump ccould beat Hillary and has a strong base is so-called "moderates." I think many times they label themselves as such because they don't particularly like either party. As has been said ad nauseum, he is viewed as an outsider and that plays well to much of the populace. For the record, I think Rubio could beat Hillary as well. I think her best shot would be against Cruz, as much as some don't like to hear it. Not saying she can't beat the other two but I think her chances are best against our senator.

Reminds me of Justin Bieber telling Frank Sinatra how to sing (disclaimer: any matching of first names is purely coincidental)...

Amen. Rarely does a team run the gauntlet without an "ugly win" or two. Win and advance. All that matters.

Absolutely

Stop playing around with them Panthers and blow it open

Just saw replay. Good no call. Defender was absolutely straight up. Shooter initiated all the contact.

Stelly thought Mirabella was fouled on the last 3 pt attempt. What did you think, AAW?

That's a shame...hate to see that.

C'mon Big Ned

Jimmy Chitwood plays for HJ though...

Tech should have Jordan Jackson back (Sheryl Swoopes' son who is a freshman) and hopefully Texas will have Ridley back. Should boost their sleeper potential.

I think MossHill is talking more about a team that can handle the pressure and slow it down and force them to play the game more in half court sets. Wheatley certainly is capable of winning but teams that like to run play right into Silsbee's hands. That's where the depth kicks in. I have seen plenty this year of teams going 10-12 deep when they are actually 7-8 deep and the team suffers. But Silsbee is legit 10+ deep. You're right OF - there may be a team as deep in 4a as Silsbee but I'd have to see it. Most years there's not.

One thing I have noticed with Devon is he so good at penetrating and is looking to set his teammates up (his vision is among the best in the area - scary he's only a freshman). Too often though, his teammates are spotting up outside the 3 pt line instead of slashing to the basket. So his pass is a kick out instead of an assist at the basket. Adams and Harris in particular can both finish at the rim so when the three isn't falling for them, I would like to see them cutting more to the cup. Maybe a little nitpick but just my personal opinion.

Central 80 Humble 45 F

I think a 44 pt lead on a 134 pt pace already qualifies for nasty!

Don't be hating on Richonne. A lot of people, mostly women, my wife included, have been hoping for that coupling for quite sometime. I hear those women almost broke Twitter last night with their jubilation.

No joke. But I'm assuming since Elkins beat Bush this week and has a better record, they will be the new #1. And maybe it's me and I'm wrong but I think that's a bad choice on Bush's part. I hope I'm right and they're sitting home after round 2.

#30 is Steph Curry, not Draymond. Hth When the man who brings the ball up the court, calls the plays, and runs the offense is the same guy, we basketball guys call that a point guard. To help even further, in football games, the guy who takes the snap under center and either hands off, runs, or passes is called the quarterback. But in all seriousness, my kid has been reading your posts ITT and laughing his behind off. You have to settle a bet for us. Are you: 1) the biggest troll in the history of the Internet or 2) completely clueless It's one of the two and at this point, I honestly don't know anymore.

Both of those receiving corps are sick. You guys are like Gates and Buffett arguing about wealth...

What about the fact that he dribbles the ball up most of the time and runs the offenses from the point? Google "Magic Johnson." Here's a hint:. Just because you are over 6-6 doesn't mean you can't play guard. Granted he should be playing PF but VP is so weak he has to play guard I guess.

At this point, everyone should be rooting for all the area schools.
