Best Shooter In the Area


Recommended Posts

Paul Sims from Warren is a pure shooter.He is very consistant and had 1 game this summer where he had 9 -3's.Also shot 82% from the free throw line last year.

Tyler Copeland from West Hardin is another that can really light it up from behind the arc.

Jarvis Bernard from HJ shoots it real well also.

JCovan and Tramain are great scorers but neither are pure shooters.

Lots of small school kids out there this year that can shoot it.

Paul and Matt are probalbly the two purist shooters in the area. Paul shoots around 40% from beyond the arc.  Matt is deadly 12ft and in and can shoot over most anyone.  There are some better scorers (Thomas,Brown etc.) around but give these two a shot and it done.  I must add Copeland in the shooters mix as well.  Being from a small school does limit their exposure  However, being in the district with Kountze and EC will help with that.  Last year Kountze had 4 move on to the next level, pretty good I'd say.  FYI ,Paul and Matt are graduates of the Leland Hand shooters school.

Paul Sims of Warren, and Tyler Copeland of West Hardin get my votes. Look for Sims to light it up for 30 plus several times this season with the shooting touch he has. His teammate Matt Andrews is not too shabby either.  He has different range, but still very accurate, and like Sims, is capable of having a big scoring night.

Here's my top three in order:

1. Copeland (WH)

2. Copeland (WH)

3. Copeland (WH)

Thread closed.

He would definately be in my top 3.Not sure I would give him all 3 spots though  ;) ;) ;)He probably should think about moving down 105 this year.Got to watch him a lot this summer and seems like a great kid.Looks like a rough year at WH this year though.

If he or she can "play" they would be better off in the largest school in the largest market with the best coach.   We made a mistake with our daughter by not taking an opportunity for her to play for a private school.  She played 2A and ended up going Juco.

Is Paul Sims any kin to Coach Sims at HJ???

Yep, it's her nephew, she was a real hooper.I hear she was glad when the bottom came out of the peach basket  ;D ;D ;D Just kidding the lady was the best women's player I ever saw in a time when the womens game wasn't getting the press it gets now.A lot of todays players owe some of those ladies for bringing the sport to it's current level.Coach Sims,Coach Cruz-WH,Rosetta(her sister)not sure where she is now and Jimmie Daniels(another WH grad) they could all play.

Sims can certainly bust the open 3 ,but the biggest improvement to his game the last 2 years has been off the dribble.Kid is 6'3" and can pull up and shoot it over lots of folks.Also went to the line over 100 times last year and hit 82% of his free throws so a lot of his shots were in traffic.He and Copeland are both in keeping with the topic "pure shooters" with excellent form.Jackson is a scorer but doesn't have a pure shooters touch.He is a solid ballplayer though.

    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McnNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
    • @CIS_org National Security Senior Fellow @BensmanTodd tells Steve Bannon how the U.S. State Department and USAID have been sending American taxpayer funds to religious nonprofits to facilitate mass immigration to our southern border. Bensman says 248 nonprofits are participating in the United Nations’ 2024 agenda to distribute $1.6 billion in cash, transportation, food, and shelter to U.S.-bound immigrants across Mexico and Latin America.
