Tigers94

As bad as they still are, I'm seeing some improvements in the Tigers. The points per game has started to go up from a miserable barely over 50 a game. Still got a lot of work to do. We've got a really good dunker in Williams. Posterized an HJ kid a few days ago. I'd like to see him attacking the rim as much as possible and in transition. Humble actually looks like a pretty good team from their schedule, so at least we didn't get a 30 or 40 piece put on us.

Payton definitely made the right decision in leaving. I hope he gets a ring or two at BU. Him and Garrett in the same backcourt at West Brook would have been sick though.

So far Silsbee is averaging a little over 50 points per game. We only have maybe two kids that can actually shoot a basketball well and when they're off it's really bad. This is definitely one of the worse Tiger teams I've seen in a long time. I'm sure it'll get a little better, but I can't see more than one playoff win this year if we're lucky. Sad thing is there doesn't appear to be much there on the freshman or JV squads either. We won't have a chance of being really good again until 2027.

This is just sad to watch. Maybe we should have played Beaumont Kelly or Legacy instead.

Freshman game is woefully bad. Tigers down 50 - 7 at the half.

WB wins 78 - 67.

West Brook beating Kimball 45 - 36 in the 3rd.

Yeah, just don't pull a Silsbee and the Stangs can win this.

Surprised the United game was that close. Hear Payton is averaging about 20 ppg so far. Hopefully Silsbee can get a win in the morning.

I don't expect the Tigers to win, but if they want a chance: 1. Long drives that eat up the clock. Keep La Vega's offense off the field and try to wear their defense down. 2. No turnovers and absolutely no boneheaded penalties.

8th grade is really good. Arguably a top 3 team in the area regardless of classification. So long as all those kids stay together, Tiger basketball has a bright future.

They probably will... For about 5 minutes anyways.

Only real concern for Silsbee is the young and inexperienced secondary. Hopefully they'll get better with each game. We'll see when they play Hitchcock and HF.

Silsbee - 43 La Vega - 53

Silsbee lost to La Vega 53 - 43. They've got two more games tomorrow. Size might not be as much of a problem as some people think. We've got a 6'7 and 6'4, both sophomores, who'll be playing this year. That and a few really athletic 6'2 kids.
