[quote name="u_dnt_kno_me" post="980507" timestamp="1299773832"] i say yes 1st seed gets an easier bracket [/quote] First gets a bye. May not be an easier bracket just depends on which districts have better teams.

[/quote] Not the point, it was asked which would be remembered our first round loss this year or HJ's playoff run. I was just stating that our first round loss that year is remembered more in Silsbee than HJ's finish. In Sour Lake it is probably the opposite,except for those who want to remind us of it.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="979781" timestamp="1299635451"] Nope.........they may be district champs this year, but that means nothing!!!  Would you rather be district champs and lose first playoff game or make it to Regional Semis???  Now ultimately the State Championship is both of these teams goal, so both fell short!!!  But still would rather win 3 playoff games and make it Huntsville than have district champ bragging rights!! ;) ;) ;) [/quote] To be honest these Tigers would rather have done neither, their goal was higher than getting to regionals so I feel they would have been just as dissappointed had they reached that point and lost.  Suren they would have liked to have won a couple playoff games but a couple wasn't whatbthey were after.  But keep trying to belittle their district championship maybe it will make you feel better since you couldn't get a victory over the Tigers this year!  Ultimately this year both teams dissappointed themselves in not reaching Austin whether it was a second round loss or a fourth round loss.

K-smith or Prudhomme [/quote] Stallworth & the Tigers beat HJ not once but twice this season y [/quote] Not winning a playoff game IMO really hurt DC's chances at this "made up award"!!!! [/quote] Not winning a playoff game isn't  the faultof one player. He still didn't have his best game but did still had good numbers.

[/quote] Good enough to finish second behind H-F ( the Dove said this will be THE year) [/quote] If that's the case we will have to fight for third,HJ has us beat already zz

In 3A one third place team made it. I think their may be a benefit a far as keeping a routine going but the rest of it is the luck of the draw. Just depends on where the stronger teams are.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="978564" timestamp="1299388653"] That just proves the strength of that district!!!!! [/quote] I noticed Smith was ranked as was Madison but the second place team wasn't unless I missed them.

Dallas Smith beat both Dallas Madison and now Argyle to make it to Austin after finishing third in a district won by Madison.

[quote name="bmrm" post="978527" timestamp="1299382010"] No offense to either Mexia or Athens, but did anybody really have these two teams meeting up in the Region III final?  [/quote] No way, I would never have imagined before the playoffs that my Tigers wouldn't have made it, or HJ or Cleveland.

You don't have to tell that to this Tiger fan!

Wow!!

Wow no 21-3A team in the regional finals. That sucks.

No matter what the outcome ends up another big HJ comeback. Great game guys.

They will settle down.its early.

He needs something to stay busy!

He has Jethro!!

[quote name="PoppaBearstarr" post="977441" timestamp="1299257758"] First of all notice I highlighted "after"....second yes you beat us twice but as I said earlier in the year, you can have both district games I wanted the next one at regionals...... [/quote] I noticed and I hope you get the win saturday but if we had taken care of ours saturday would be a whole different story! But all that is now is a big if.

I'm positive that Silsbee will be very good next year, they always are, for the last four years we have been taking turns going to austin....I hope that we do not disappoint this year...

[/quote] HJ is having a great season, no doubt. THE top team in the area...come on! Silsbee beat them twice, Nederland, Central, and LC-M(?) also beat them. They are a solid team, but not better than Silsbee or Nederland (regardless the fact that Silsbee is already out-they beat them twice!) [/quote] Abe, you are probably right but I am betting  they are more improved over the past 3 weeks than anyone else in this area. [/quote] I'm NOT going to argue with that! After their win last night, I'm on board...Unlike AAW and Soulja NOT being on board w/Nederland. Come on guys...what's it going to take??? [/quote] Everyone is pulling for Nederland, but they are still going to be underdogs the rest of the year.  Now that Cleveland and Silsbee are gone, HJ is actually a favorite to get to state. [/quote] R U sure about that?  Wouldnt it be logical to think that perhaps Sealy is now the favorite by virtue of beating a team that went 2-0 against HJ? [/quote] No Sealy is not the favorite, yes they beat the Tigers and yes they outplayed us that night. But we had a bad night shooting and may have come out flat in the second half due to uncontrollable circumstances. No excuse. HJ still is the favorite, too much history and experience on the court and the sideline.
