Not sure. Both teams had some turnovers that were bad decidions that they will need to limit. I am sure on both sides they were the result of relentless pressure all night but definitely were just bad decisions at the time.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="751937" timestamp="1264831232"] Silsbee is the longest and biggest team in the state in 3A and lower!!!!!!  Mabe even bigger than some 4A and 5A teams!!!!!!  They will be tough to beat!!! [/quote] And we could have been bigger tonight if we hadn't had one stop playing.  Barret probably would have been replaced with a 6'2 guard.  I  do like our chemistry better now though and when Pheal gets back you will have a better scorer and defensive player add some life to the team.

Yes thats DC. Jones played great tonight.

THERE WAS NOT ONE CUSS WORD...Someone behind me made some type of reference to her officiating resembled a shop vac or something like that, she got mad and went to a policeman and said we were cussing her out. I was personally was disappointed  that somehow I was drug into it, I didn’t say any of it, but hey I think that’s why people were mad at the officiating of that game. (the buckshot approach) Now I think the officiating in the second game was top notch. I know, I know, I’m griping about the game we won and praising the game we lost. Us losing had nothing to do with the officiating it had more to do with the JUCO sized team called the Silsbee Tigers, and going 4 for 15 from the line. [/quote] Yes the officiating in that game was definitely subpar...both ways.  A great night of basketball. Both teams need to do better from the line.

Hey Poppa, did ya'll try to get kicked out of the gym during the JV game? haha

Good win for the Tigers over a tough HJ team. I can't wait to see the stats. I would like to know how many shots Sutherland got off. We always had someone there as soon as he got the ball. DC and Jones had big games. Has to be the best game I have seen Kendrick play this year.

Being a Tiger fan I know never count out the Hawks.

Great JV game. Getting amped up in here. Hawks take it.

I am in my seat and I feel like a sardine. The den is about full.

Hard to make a prediction. HJ gets its energy from Turner if he is limited like last night it will be the Tigers game to take. The Tigers get a lot of there energy from Hill, without them they need good games from Lane and Stallworth and at least some help from one more guard. If they don't get this the Hawks should win.

Tough one.

Too physical!

How much time is left.

Hill and who else?

I don't think so the Tigers had to sit Thomas about midway in the second and Jones sat out most of third and fourth and still fouled out. There were some questionable calls both ways but I didn't see either team to be the benefactor.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="748381" timestamp="1264223874"] I agree that it will be a tough 5 games to have to play without Hill, but I have all the confidence in the world in the other Tiger players to be able and step up and take care of business until Pheal comes back. Silsbee got a taste of it tonight and I think the players and the coaching staff will be prepared for the remainder of the district schedule, with or without Hill. The Tigers have had to play a few games already this year minus a star player or two and have come out victorious. Silsbee did not have Hill and Harris for the New Waverly game, won that one. They also did not have Stallworth for the second half of the West Brook game and for the all of the Kelly and Spurger games, and still won those games. Stallworth's first game back was the district opener against WOS and his minutes were limited. Tigers won that @ WOS by 25. Again, Silsbee has the team to overcome the loss of a player or two for a small amount of time. Hill will be back for the last 2 district games and then the playoffs. In the mean time, the Tigers will do their best without him. I do admit though, the HJ game at home just got a lot tougher. [/quote] Could not have said it better.  It is just a shame it had to happen. 

[quote name="FanintheStands" post="748372" timestamp="1264223586"] [quote author=ST4life link=topic=65067.msg748366#msg748366 date=1264222960] Losing Hill is like HJ losing Turner Just imagine if you are HJ and you had to play Silsbee without Turner ??? [/quote]If its for the 6 weeks then he should be back for the play-offs, eh?  This will give his backups a chance to step up.  This may not be a total loss in the long run.  For instance, I saw some improvement in Will Anderson's play after Ricossa went down.  This benefits HJ now when Ricossa takes a breather. No, if Hill comes back, this is certainly not a show-stopper. [/quote] I believe it will be three weeks.

Pheal will definitely be missed.  I think the biggest part of that will be his ability to take the ball to the hole.  Yes his quickness will be missed greatly on defense but I have been impressed with Gaines defense,  maybe not as good as Hills but he still does a pretty good job and is fairly quick himself.  I do believe Turner would be a tougher loss for the Hawks, just because I am not sure that they would have a player on the bench that could come close to his speed and defense.  He and Pheal bring some of the same type of athletic qualities,  I just don't know if H-J has anyone similar to replace Turner with. That is not a knock at H-J,  just a compliment on Turners athleticism.

The Tiger's will need big contributions fro Gaines and Barrett in the H-J game.  Hills quickness will be a big loss.

41-32 Tigers lead four minutes left.

Tigers lead 35-30.
