The UIL's All-Century Team for boys basketball

[shorttexas1]

As a pro, Bosh is an Allstar PF and  Perk is one of the better Centers in the league.  Perk doesn't get the shots bosh gets and his role is completely different.  But back to the State game which is what the argument is about.  Below is a quote used by the official site for Texas Basketball State championships!

"The final matched two future NBA stars, 6’10” Sr Chris Bosh of Lincoln and 6’11” Kendrick Perkins of Ozen, in one of the greatest individual match-ups in the history of the state tournament.  However, Lincoln routed Ozen by 20 points utilizing a press and half-court trap that forced 27 Ozen turnovers which the Tigers turned into 39 points.  Statistically, Bosh and Perkins fought to a draw."

Stat Line:
Bosh with 21 points, 11 rebounds, 7 blocks, 2 steals and 2 assists
Perkins with 20 points, 14 rebounds, 5 blocks and 1 assist

Perk had that kind of Stat line and his guards could not get the ball across half court.  27 Turnovers!  It is amazing to pull that Stat line when you can't even touch the ball.  Over half of Bosh's points came off fast breaks when the ball was turned over!!!

ShortTexas you right, Bosh did not dominate Perkins. Dallas Lincoln dominated Ozen. Perkins deserves to be on any all high school team in Texas History...

I guess Lt. Dangle  finally understood the argument... Yeah those guards flat out sucked DOVE!!!  If Breckenridge had not been hurt... The game would have been closer.  He was a 6'4" pg that could have made some difference at lead guard on the press.

How would that explain Jimmy Smith ahead of Larry Johnson & Ostertag
[/quote]

The same explanation as O'Neal gets. He only played 1 year of Texas high school basketball.

I cannot explain Smith, I was just defending Dexler since you claimed he wasn't deserving because of his high school career.

Victoria advocate did a good job of getting smiths name out there for this.  Ran it in the paper.  Probably had their BCIS classes vote.  Only 5500 voted.  could easily sway the vote that way.  I saw him play in HS and he was not better than Labradford.
