Good luck to all the teams left, lots of good memories you will have for a life time That game was full of excitement. Even when they was up 50. High School basketball needs a shot clock.

High School basketball needs a shot clock. A shot clock is needed. it could be a good opportunity for high schoolers to get ready for college basketball. It will speed up the game, good teams will score within the time frame, bad teams will have to adjust. A shot clock may expose some coaches offensive & defensive plays but it will also challenge coaches to improve their philosophies and how they manage the clock. bayou city 713 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimThorpe Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 It would be a big responsibility for small schools. Installing the equipment and making sure it’s working correctly is one issue. The bigger issue is the need for a fourth official at the scorers table. You couldn’t invest that responsibility with a volunteer I do think it would be fun for the kids. They’ll feel a little like they are in the big leagues dealing with the same challenges the pros have. Thats the main thing to me. Is it good for the kids. Frankly, I think it would be. A 30 second clock would divide a quarter into 8 possessions for each team. Surely that’s a reasonable thing. Within that framework you could still be deliberate. It would prevent teams from sitting on a lead and to me that’s compelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HasBeen36 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 High School basketball doesn’t need a shot clock cause it already has one. It’s 8 minutes long. BADSANTA and 5GallonBucket 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthleticSupporter - Jock Posted March 3, 2020 Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Back to the game, it almost seems as if Yates has been sandbagging a little to not draw too much attention to themselves. Sort of like that athlete on steroids that never does his full 1 rep max because it would be so obvious to everyone that he is on the juice. I guess the gloves came off in this game since the curtain has been pulled back. I actually felt sorry for the #4 team in the state of Texas.
