ST413 Posted February 7, 2016 Report Posted February 7, 2016 A big part of determining any outcome depends on how well the Tigers respond having Grubbs back on the court. He plays a big part for the Tigers and I am sure will be pumped up to get back on the court. Quote

I expect Tre to have a great game that Friday night. Quote

They didn't have him for much of the first game, plus Saladin was off, and they kept it closer than that IN Silsbee. but Silsbee is really, really good, and you're talking about HJ's best player at handling their pressure defense not playing So, if I were to put line at -14 Silsbee, who do you take? BTW, the result of HJ's game against LC-M Tuesday night will have somewhat of an effect on the line for Silsbee game Friday night. Quote

Silsbee is 20 points better on paper with no parquet in the lineup, but you can always throw out the paper when these two play. HJ actually trimmed the margin nicely in their last meeting after he went out hurt. Quote

I don't know how that equates to winning percentages, but I was thinking 15 points without Eli. But I wouldn't be shocked either by an HJ win and thought they had a great shot at winning the one at home before the injuries. Goes back to depth. Silsbee is deep enough to compensate for an injury or a grades absence, especially in district. HJ has some depth but losing a Saladin or a Parquet or a Roberts is tough to overcome against Silsbee. But if Saladin and Roberts both have outstanding games with key contributors, who knows? Quote

ST413 Posted February 7, 2016 Report Posted February 7, 2016 Between these two those rankings mean absolutely nothing. Sure I can see the reasons but how many times have we seen a game between these two where one one by a margin that made you feel they were clearly ahead of the other. Or that they would beat the other 4 out of 5 times. I can say if you look at the first half of several of the last games I would feel like that but then if you look at the end result, I might change my mind. Go back to the buzzer beater in Silsbee coming into that point of the year, you had the feeling HJ was clearly out front at the end of the year you had the feeling it was much closer. That seems to be the norm. I have been waiting to see the Tigers finish off one of these games the last few years maintaining the big lead but it hasn't happened. So yes I could see and may even agree with the view of a 20 to 25% chance but really don't have much faith in that. Quote
BADSANTA Posted February 7, 2016 Report Posted February 7, 2016 I'm looking forward to this game with Grubbs back. Quote
exsoftballplayer Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 History has it that the HJ/Silsbee rivalry has been relatively close no matter what the rankings are....I have been at some of those buzzer beaters, and those rankings were a little closer, but did not take away from the results.......We will ALL see Friday night, and may the best team win.....should be a good one....

ST413 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 Don't know I don't put those numbers on games. I wasn't the one that made the statement that HJ had a 20-25 % chance. That was Your HJ guy Bullets. Quote

ST413 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 No not at all. I have been impressed by BCs improvement, just not to that level. I knew HJ had one out,. But then remembered seeing Saladin was sick. I was more shocked than anything at first. Quote
ST413 Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Both played? I didn't remember seeing your post,. But I do remember seeing someone share his post on Twitter either the day of or the day before about it being no fun being sick. Either way I don't know but if that was the case I doubt he was himself. Quote
Silsbee92 Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 One thing I would like to see.... With this Tiger team against HJ I would like to see them finish in a strong and overwhelming fashion. Not to embarrass or make a statement of some sort, but to exercise some demons and to understand that to win the 'Ship, they MUST FINISH EVERY TEAM FROM NOW ON. No exceptions. No let up. Be dominant like they can be and not be afraid to lose. Heart & Soul. jmo Quote
ST413 Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Been waiting Ching for that for a while now. Quote
Lazeek Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Saladin did play at BC, but had the flu. Either way HJ managed to get the W. Not bad with a starter out, a starter playing with the flu and your first person coming off the bench out. Quote
