Guest Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 Just now, AggiesAreWe said: Well, so far you are wrong on the two teams you named. Wheatley is a mirror image to Silsbee. Up tempo, pressure, shoot 3 ball. No real post play. La Marque, well they are Region IV, so they wouldn't see them till SA. Three best teams in Region III: Silsbee, Wheatley and a healthy Hardin-Jefferson. Yeah that's cool. Maybe there is nobody in Region III that plays that style. Unfortunate it would seem being this is the style of just about every state champion you'll run across in the last 10-15 years. Like I said, Its probably not smart to say who and when. I just wanted to highlight that it would certainly be that "style" that eliminates Silsbee. Quote

I can't really see anyone else measuring up, although HJ could certainly upset either with a healthy Parquet and a lackluster effort by its opponent. Once in SA, anything can happen.

ST413 Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 Congratulations to my Tigers! First mission accomplished, District Champions! Now on to the bigger goals. I have to say hats off to HJ as well they put up a good fight for 3 quarters. But the Tigers are just too much when they get rolling. I have to say to Michael Saladin it has been fun to watch you play. I can remember the first time I saw you last year thinking that this couldn't be who I have been hearing about, but have been nothing but impressed from that point on. And tonight I saw someone mention you had about 30 points and it must have been almost effortless, I never even realized you were close to that. I know that HJ was missing a couple of playersand especially Parquet and we were missing an all state player as well. There is no doubt tonight that HJ issued Parquets ball handling. He would be the one I would want yo see dribbling in pressure. Without him Saladin had to do a lot of it and # 5 did a pretty good job. But the There was no doubt in the end in this one. Parquet may have helped some but not nearly enough. As for my Tigers play tonight, great pressure defense from start to finish. The first half not so good on the offensive side. Too many missed 3s but the big thing was several missed layups for no reason. Some of those were just flat out misses on a break. Then in the second half that momentum got going and that was all she wrote. a couple of points, one it was mentioned about some of the turnovers that HJ had that were maybe not a direct result of the Tigers defense. I think a lot of those were the result of rushing because always seeming to have someone in your face. I know I have seen in the past games where I felt we rushed say some shots inside when we were getting a lot of shots blocked or things like that. I had the same view of several of those turnover that HJ usually wouldn't make tonight. another thing I would like to mention is noticing a couple players tonight for the Tigers. Maybe not the ones that had big scoring nights like Harris who had a great second half. One it was great having Tre Grubbs back tonight. Roberts had a big game for HJ in the first game and tonight Tre offset a lot of that. I noticed several times Roberts would come down with or have a good chance at the rebound and Tre would take it away from him or knock it out of his hands. He was a great spark tonight. The other was Devon tonight. I have been impressed with both freshmen this year but tonight I noticed Devon on a few of his drives and how he positioned his body to keep Roberts from being able to get to the ball. Good play for sure. Last thing I want to say is that I hate that these two teams are being separated for the next two years and who knows after that. Whether we have won 15 of the last 19 or not, they have all been fun. Tonight's atmosphere reminded me of those games before ford park. I realize that it's not very likely for a regular season game the next couple years but I as a fan will miss it! Quote

My screen name alludes to where I am from. I'm not a hater, chief. Just a realist who despises full court pressure basketball. Its so very easy to beat if you have those 3 ingridients. Please tell me, WHO SLOWED the game down against Silsbee, and yet the Tigers were still victorious? Quote

I think you need to take a look at who actually won state titles in every classification the last 10-15 years. You will be surprised how many were up tempo, pressure defense. Quote

I believe the Tigers' last loss was to such a team with a score in the 60s, Liberty Hill. Obviously Silsbee is fully capable of winning such games, but it will be more challenging than games where they cause 25-30+ turnovers. Officiating is the other variable with the aggressive, pressure D they play. I really hope they don't run into a game where the officials call it tight as a string. They have the depth to withstand foul trouble but it could cause serious issues with their rhythm/tempo. Quote

You hardly ever have anything positive to say towards Silsbee. All you do is troll threads and instigate. Whether you like it or not, Silsbee is arguably the best team in the state.

whsalum Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 I saw Tramaine Thomas, Preston Guillory and Vince McDonald beat a very good Kountze team a few years back with The type game plan Moss Hill speaks of. Of course you don't get three like that everyday Quote

And heck, I have not even seen Silsbee. How could I possibly know anything about their struggles against a team like Argyle that slows the pace down. I'll certainly be the first to admit it, if I am wrong. I hope Silsbee runs the table and presses the socks off every team on the way to the ship. But, if they lose, it will certainly be to a team that does what I would do to them with 2 guards and a post that move the ball well. Quote

You'll have to show me a post where I trolled Silsbee or said anything negative about them bud. Perhaps football season when they were takin' on my Carthage Bulldogs, that they'd lose but certainly wasn't undermining their successes. That's no my style chief. I wish all SE Texas schools the best of success. We got lots of catching up to do with the rest of the state. Quote

You asked what team slowed it down but yet Silsbee came out victorious like you never thought they could win a slow down game. Well I gave you an example.Then #2 state ranked Argyle. It only disproved your point that Silsbee could not beat a team that slowed the game down with exceptional guard play with good post play. Argyle had both but yet Silsbee won. bullets13, ST413, Who That and 2 others 5 Quote

Excuse my language AAW Actually, I want them to win their first state championship in school history on the hardwood. It doesn't add to my bank account whether or not they win it all or exit in the 3rd/4th round. No dog in the fight. Good luck & yes I do need to come see a Silsbee game. Coach Davis filled me in on the game earlier. Sounds like it was a good one for the Tigers. Quote

BADSANTA Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 7 hours ago, MOSSHILL said: Wheatley, La Marque - probably the only two in the region that can hang It may not be round 4, but I will certainly say it will be the team that slows the game down and makes the Tigers play an unorthodox style that they are certainly not accustom to. Big Sandy with size down low type of team and that will absolutely murder a team that wants to run and is built to run. It's retarded for me to sit here and say to who or when...I just know that's how it's going to happen. If I am wrong, which I likely can be because I have not seen Silsbee, then I will gladly admit I am wrong when they are crowned state champ. Mosshill stop hatting. LaMarqe is Region 4 and Wheatley is small. All of Silsbee kids are are about 6'2 and 6'3 besides Newton and Adonis Thomas who are about 5'9. Silsbee is very long and athletic. They have beat many 6A and 5A (Beaumont Central #5 5A) . They can play the half court or press. If you haven't seen them play it is best not to assume or comment. DXTR 1 Quote
