Did Silsbee try the strategy of let Burgess do whatever he wants but stop everyone else or did they try to run with Benton??

Silsbee played their normal press and fast paced style. Caused a lot of turnovers in the first half, but Benton figured it out and was able to break the press and run. The height advantage was a killer. Silsbee went cold in the 2nd half, not taking bad shots, they just weren't falling. Burgess heated up in the 2nd half, but Harris probably led all scorers w/ maybe 25-30 points. Miller had at least twenty also.

Silsbee has to rebound better. Also had a lot of good stops defensively then turned the ball right back over. First time I have watched them this year, I do like them having the jones kid out there for his 3-point shooting.

One problem I've noticed is Silsbee often tries to push the ball up the court too fast when they get it and will turn it right back over. This usually leads to free points for the other team. They need to teach these kids to pay attention first and foremost before passing the ball out.

And one of our star players needs to take it to the hoop and draw fouls when we go cold shooting the ball.

Still, there's no real shame in losing this one. It should be perfectly clear by now what we need to clean up if we want to be playing in March.

I agree. They line those things out and they will be fine. Miller still in football shape lol

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • 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 McNeese 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 obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
