**Silsbee at HJ BROADCAST/Tigers win 64-51!**

[Lazeek]

Congrats Silsbee on the big win tonight in front of a packed house (and then some) at the Hawk Gym.  Close game for 3 quarters and then the Tigers pulled away like last time.  Team that played better won again tonight.  Too many poor shots for the Hawks and too many offensive rebounds for the Tigers that turned into 2nd chance points!!!!

Tough to see my Hawks lose, but you win some and you lose some!!!!  Time to get refocused and prepare for OF on Friday night.

Congrats again to the Tigers on the win tonight and on being the outright District 21-3A Champions this year!!!!

Impressive road win...Congrats Tigers

That should wrap the district crown up for the Tigers, do they get a bye?

Great game.... Great atmosphere!!!!

HJ corrected the two big problems they had in the 1st game - stayed out of foul trouble and they managed to keep their stamina up.


However, Silsbee turned up the heat on defense and HJ was not prepared for it. 



I also noticed that Silsbee was more focused tonight.  You could tell from the beginning.

Well crap, I was hoping to avoid them this year and take a somewhat easier path to regionals, but I guess we will play the hand that's dealt & prove everybody wrong & end up in Huntsville.

Great atmosphere for this one, depth was the key.The Tigers had fresh legs in the 4th and the Hawks were a half a step late.The double technical call was interesting to say the least.It had no bearing on the outcome as both clubs hit 1 of 2.I didn't think you shot a double tech.I thought it went to the possession arrow,somebody help me out on this one  ??? ???

Two huge stats. The second team for the Tigers was huge at the end of the third quarter.  I would bet theynhad most of those steals.  Lane finally had his big night against the Hawks as well.  Great game, great atmosphere!!  Congratulations to my Tigers!

Yes that was interesting although I thought the Tigers missed both of the free throws to fall behind by 1 at the time.  I saw Gaines mouth to the official and get called for his, but totally missed  Prudhomme bumping a Tiger and getting whistled at the same time.  Me and a fellow Tiger fan saw different T's at the same time.  Didn't think they would shoot both either.

[/quote]I think you're right.  All the steal came late 3rd and early 4th.  Those hurt, because HJ never got back into their offense.  And you are correct about Lane.  For some reason, he's never had a good night against HJ - this year and last year (if I remember correctly).  He opened up with a 3 for Silsbee and I began to think, "Uh-oh".

[AggiesAreWe]

I think it's fairly simple. Silsbee is the better team and the majority of the reason is they have a much better and deeper bench. You combine that with having arguably the best player in the area (Stallworth) and a top 5 player (Lane), this year Silsbee is just better than HJ. That is no knock on Hardin-Jefferson. They will make some noise in the playoffs and I fully expect to see them in Huntsville.

The key moment and what I thought swung the game in Silsbee's favor was the last 2 minutes of the 3rd and the first 2 minutes of the 4th. Silsbee had their second unit on the floor in those 4 minutes and it paid big dividends down the stretch. Those bench players turned a 47-46 deficit with 1:45 left in 3rd, to a 53-47 Silsbee lead at the end of the 3rd, finishing on a 7-0 run. Silsbee's coaching staff opted to keep that reserve 5 on the floor to start the 4th and they held serve, leaving with 5:45 left, holding a 55-49 lead. The starting 5 returned for the Tigers well rested and they extended the lead to as much as 14, 63-49, combining with the 2nd unit to give the Tigers a 17-2 run. Much like how Silsbee won the first game, getting a big run to open the last quarter. Also, Silsbee's defensive effort in the 2nd half, particularly in the 4th (held HJ to just 4 points) kept the Hawks from making any kind of comeback run. Silsbee now has held HJ to just 14 total points in the 4th in the two games played. Where as the Tigers have scored 35.

Silsbee's starters scored 49, compared to HJ, whose starters scored 45. Silsbee's bench outscored HJ's bench, 15-6. In the two games, Silsbee's bench has outscored HJ's 32-10.

Other key stats, Silsbee out rebounding HJ 42-24. Also, Silsbee getting 10 steals, 7 coming in the 2nd half (Gaines had 5).


This gives Silsbee 8 wins in the last 11 meetings with Hardin-Jefferson. That's a 72% winning percentage. Good run!!


Big road win for Silsbee!! Congrats Tigers on a well deserved victory!!
