One thing about it.  He's not going to be rattled in any high school game.  Used to going up against the best in the country in the summers and almost always draws the other team's best perimeter defender.  

That's the little bro. Been seeing him grow since he was 11 years old. He played the best game tonight. JMO.

So was the game 'closer than expected' because of garbage refs or blown layups, dunks, and free throws?

Can't say because I was not in attendance

I wasn't either...

But I feel if Silsbee will not play in the YMBL tournament then our fans should not complain when Beaumont Westbrook or Beaumont Ozen backs down from a match-up on the Tigers schedule.

Just my 2 cents

I won't necessarily say this was closer than expected.  It was closer than it could or should have been.   Those blown dunks  cost us a margin that wouldnt have come down to the last possession.  And a couple mistakes late that are pretty uncharacteristic of the player gave the jags a couple extra chances.  Hats off to Central for a good game and to my Tigers for holding on.  I also feel that tonight may have been our worse game so far this year from the ft line.

26 turnovers by both teams and Silsbee needs to work on those dunks. I seen Devon McCain miss one vs WC as well.

No it was close because Central can play good basketball. Has some killers on the squad. 

[no-look]

Good win by Silsbee. Would have loved to have seen this one. 

[ST413]

As far as the refs there was a lot of confusion. After the missed ft at the end of the game Central rebounded and everyone was hollering that the clock never started as he went down court.   One ref blew the whistle to stop play and set the clock.  While he was at the scorers table the other refs had the players at the line saying 2 fts.  And in the end it I thought they added more time to the clock instead of taking any off.

[BMTSoulja1]

That's what I was gonna say...  if they're missing dunks,then maybe they just aren't good dunkers and need to just lay the ball up...  I don't know if it was a message they were wanting to send,  it lay the ball in and take those points vs the emphatic dunk...

[ST413]

I meant to ask is Dill #5 and who is 21.

I would like to see Devon McCain score more myself. I think he has a super talent and needs to take more shots. He can drop 30 at anytime.

Silsbee played a little out of control at times tonight tigers tried to show out in front of the crowd instead of totally being focused silsbee could have pulled away on different occasions but they allowed things to happen missing free throws and dunks and lay ups central will get plenty of calls at home all the calls allowed central to stay in the game because the tigers could not run like they usually do and blow teams out central played very well but really could not handle the tigers pressure tigers are fortunate to win. Them dam refs that's all I'm going to say.

[Kountzer]

Thursday's game though...

[Silsbee92]

Like I said.  To Close to Call..

Local Teams.  Budding Rivalry.

In the end it was a good win.

The foul count was pretty even...  maybe the tiger's turnover total needs to be addressed....

Always take the easy layup over the dunk attempt. A missed dunk is an easy 4 point swing in the wrong direction. But this is much easier to say as an adult than a teenager playing in a high profile game. Good win Tigers over a good Central team.

Agreed...

[MBaller#1]

I think the dunks were a result of the atmosphere of the game just like Harris for silsbee running around after the Jordan Adams dunk silsbee really doesn't attempt dunks like that so hopefully lesson learned we got the win make corrections and move on very big game Thursday.
