True Blue Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 EC gave up a 10 point lead to OF in the Evadale turn. Dont see them going that now. They are realy playing good together now, they have learning to play with a big inside player and with teams having to dubble team inside that has open up the outside shot. Their young coach has got the team playing together and with a mixture or SR and underclassman they have gotten better with evergame. They are not closs to Kountze yet but if the Lions stumble they will be ready to jump at the chance. No one gave them a chance to play with HJ They were one missed traveling call and a freethrow from taking the lead with 25 sec. left. So dont sleep on this team

whsalum Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 EC will win this one if O-field doesn't get their shooter back.If they do it will be close with the home team getting the nod.
aTmfan06 Posted December 20, 2009 Report Posted December 20, 2009 If Orangefield doesnt have their best player back then EC takes it, but if he is back then will be good game.

[/quote] What bigs ?? the two kids that are 6 2 and 6 3 That ant big. They do have major hops But that ant big. They could not handel the one true big kid that they played against at HJ. Like I have said dont see any 2a team beating them as long as one stayes out of foul trouble and the others knee holds up. But dont stumble like they did against HJ they blew a 10 point lead when Bray got his 4 foul.
Guest THE SCOUTER Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 The Bobcats should bounce back after the loss, i guess I'll take them by a few buckets.
TopDawG52 Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 that is big in district 23-2A. sorry to tell you true blue just because E.C. lost to HJ by 4 don't think they will stick with the lions if they stumble.The Lions win by 40 on a good night and 30 if they stumble. ;D
True Blue Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Posted December 21, 2009 6'2'' and 6'3 is not big at anylevel 6'6'' is big at 2a level ;) I guess that why we will play the game ;D Seemes to me HJ was picked by 20+ Just tell me were I can get some of that action were you are going to give me 40 points I have a few coins to put down. ;D

I'm sure Joubert won't call the Lions off until the end of the 3rd.
whsalum Posted December 22, 2009 Report Posted December 22, 2009 Walker and Brey both play way above the rim at 6'2".No knock on the kid from EC but lets not try and make him something he's not.Carrington will be more of a thorn to the Lions because of his athletisism but they will both score at will even on him.I can see the Lions winning the district matchups by at least 30.

I also know that both SRs are at a different level than the JR but give him one more year at this poss. This is his first year at center with this new team. And if you know anything about BB there wont be a collage look at eather one of Koun. players to play the inside poss. the are both guards and small forwards.
whsalum Posted December 22, 2009 Report Posted December 22, 2009 I thought I knew a little about basketball now I'm not sure.I know Walker or Brey won't play a post position in college.They both are about the size to play a 3 but their ball handling skills will have to improve to play for any of the mid majors.Just because a kid is 6'6" doesn't mean he can play even at a D-3 school.Look at the Whitmire kid next time you watch Buna(he's the coach now)he was an exceptional high school player.And played at ETBU for 4 seasons,a small D-3 school.You will be amazed at the talent level at even the smallest of these colleges.If you've never been in the Lions Den in a district game you are in for a eye opening experience.Heck I'll come down that night and buy you a coke without the points.
True Blue Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Posted December 22, 2009 Well I havent been in the Koun. gym in 29 years for a District game so I guess I will have to wait and see. But I will take that coke. I wont be hard to find are hear ;D Just look at the big kid then look for the old man in his mirror with about 60 lbs added >:( Just make it a DR Pepper and we have a deal ;)
whsalum Posted December 22, 2009 Report Posted December 22, 2009 I'll look forward to it.I've been in the Lions Den more times than I care to admit and it is a tough place to play.EC used to have some success there but they had McDonald on the block,Joseph on the wing and a kid named Thomas breaking the press in those days.

If he streches it out to far is comes out of place so if you watch him he tryes not to use it. I have seen him try to rebound with one arm. I feel sorry for the kid he is trying his best but you know it has got to hurt him. Just look at his stats for this year, they are not closs to what he put up last year.
