Silsbee 120 Houston Yates 103/FINAL/TIGERS HEAD BACK TO SAN ANTONIO!!!

[BADSANTA]

Tell Wise to stop crying. He has like 4 or 5 rings and like 6 trips to state.  Can't go every year sir

[BADSANTA]

Yates has beat down lack luster teams all year and played a weak schedule. They dunk 8 or 9 tines a night and that intimidated a ot of teams. Not Silsbee!!!

[BMTSoulja1]

Forget the whining by Coach Wise...  On to the important matter.  What was the dunk count?

[BADSANTA]

I think Silsbee had 2 one by McCain and a put back dunk by Barnes and maybe 2 by Yates. I didn' go but saw about 5 min of highlights

Sounds about right. Teams were hustling down the court so fast I'm not sure they had the legs to dunk lol

[Who That]

Devon had two Barnes had the big put back dunk flying over.....

That was a nice one.  I also saw a put back over McCain by Serialle where Mitch picked up a foul.  In defense of Yates, I wasn’t crazy about that call.

Interesting to see him recognize Mitch as his best player, which I personally agree with.  However, I would try and get my best player more looks than alley oops off steals or offensive rebound put backs.  In the several times I saw Yates play, that was his primary involvement or uninvolvement on the offensive end. 

Mitch or no Mitch, I personally don’t believe this silsbee team would be denied.  Likely would have been closer though, that I will concede. 

So he based his whole game plan really on one player.  And taking what I saw last year and have read or been told about said player he should have known there was a good chance of him being in foul trouble.  So sounds like he made a big mistake himself.  I saw on twitter a post Mitch had of his second foul the putback over Devon’s back.  He had many comments even from a couple that should have been biased that it was a missed call. I didn’t see it that way. Dev was already under the basket sure Mitch went up over him but his body went thru Dev thus the foul and I was about as close as you can be.  But playing into his tendencies he went down and was over aggressive 10 secs later on the other end and picked up #3 before Wise even had a chance to pull him.  That was Mitch’s big mistake.

Isn't it the coach's job to prepare his players for the game? How hard is it to teach Serialle how to stay out of foul trouble? Maybe he isn't that coachable, I don't know. It's not gonna get any easier for him at the next level.

I thought Hughes was their best player?

I managed to catch the second half of this game online and I wasn't that blown away by Yates. Their defense looked like hot garbage against Silsbee. They did have one kid that had a nice looking three point shot, but that was about it besides Hughes.

Had a guy ask me in Huntsville how many times has Silsbee been in state tournament...couldn't tell him, so i did some research...

Tournament Appearances: 7 (1972, 76, 83, 2008, 10, 16, 17 and now 2018

Hughes had 29. Most of those must have been in the first half.

Hughes had 17 at the half, 25 at the end of 3rd, but scored only 4 points in the 4th.

Yates had a very good team. Silsbee is just better. I said in 4 years ago and I still stick to my statement. I said that in Devon's 4 year career in Silsbee, Silsbee will win state at least 2 times and will not lose a district game. People thought I was crazy!!!! DO NOT EVEN try and say they lost to LCM last year, because everyone here knows exactly what I meant !

[BADSANTA]

If Silsbee wins this year, I think they can get 3 titles in 3 years. They have a tough test if they win vs Somerset as I think Carter will beat Seminole by 8-10.

I actually got the feeling that some local folks were looking forward to Yates beating Silsbee and being able to come on here and spout off. 

Some certain posters have gone awol here in last couple of days.

Also, I am keeping a close eye on some certain media folk.

I agree Aggie !!!! Theirs a lot of people who seen an individual from Silsbee on the Yates page rooting for them and now giving all his analysis on how Silsbee gone go back to back..... We think he should sit on Somerset side.

Not me!  I’ve been rooting for you guys for 3 years!  Im still an HJ guy, but I don’t see us having much of a rivalry for at least the near future, so I’ve enjoyed watching y’all make your runs to state.  Hear’s hoping y’all bring it home again!

HJ 2 percenter!

It was me who was on the Jack Yates page saying Yates by 30. If you actually knew I was joking and have 2 fraternity brother who went to Yates and we always go back and forth. Never a doubt in my mind Silsbee would win and they even knew it. Sometimes people like to search for dumb $**** to bring up.
