I think they're from Nigeria.  Could be from Cut and Shoot, I don't know.

You did?  I never heard you say that.  I'm implying that a large majority of people feel as though coaches outweigh athletes and its quite the opposite.

Joubert has won for many years and now he is struggling.  Did he forget how to coach or does his players stink?  Its pretty simple if you ask me.

I'll be honest.... Neither Tom Landry or Vince Lombardi would win a game in the NFL today, regardless of the Larrys and Joes.

You implying Joubert’s basketball philosophies are outdated or something?

I was asking if you thought I said that.. I didn't.  He's a better coach than he was when he won his first title ...no doubt.  His players stink right now.

I've thought for years that the "out athlete everyone with a press" philosophy is working less and less.  Especially in the deeper games when you see good ball handling and/or basketball IQ.  

There's a reason that college/pro teams don't press back to a zone trap the whole game.

I partially agree with that. Sometimes you defeat your self full court pressing against better ball handling teams. Especially pressing the whole game. I don’t think that’s the case with Joubert     this year though

Well.. you definitely can't do it when you don't have the kids.  What I'm saying is that even when you think you do.. it's working less and less.

This is definitely true.  This is the biggest problem I have with the way Yates plays.  They always have superior athletes and it usually gets them pretty deep.  But when they run into a team with an elite guard or two, it’s crispy toast.

Exactly.  And with the way kids are improving their skills these days.. better have a plan for when the "we have superior athletes" mentality isn't working.

They’d be playing in the conference championship!

Even when Kountze was making noise in 2A & 3A basketball Silsbee was making noise too: going to the semi finals at state 2 or 3 times, producing all Americans,  doing quite well against the bigger stronger teams in the area.  It was not like Silsbee was a bottom team while Kountze was up.

I went to almost every game this season for Kountze.  It was painful to watch most days.  Joubert has changed his style based on what he has.  Should be better next year.  But if you don’t rebound, miss free throws, turn the ball over without a defender.  It makes the game harder then it is.  It’s not that they aren’t being coached.  If you know Joub,  you know he coaches.  I did see improvement.  So there is hope moving forward.

Are there no more Hancocks in Kountze? All those brothers were good. Josh was in school in Kountze when I was in Silsbee.
