I am done watching high school basketball. TASO has yet to fix the problem so as long as the game continues to be tainted like this, I won't be attending anymore. I hate to blame refs because it sounds cheap. But it was ridiculous. This is not the NBA, it's high school basketball. We're trying to teach kids the right way to play and refs let them get away with too much. The refs were bad on both sides for the most part though, but they blew some key calls.

I am done with this basketball forum. This is my last post. Congrats CH on the big win and congrats Mr. Official for ruining the sport for me

They need an accountability system. I wish they would implement one.  I didnt see the game, I dont know how the calls went, for CH or for Woodville or just plain bad.  But, there is nothing anyone can do about it.  They have all the power and basically own the game.  Until something is done, we will continue to get games that are called bad.
I could tell you horror stories from other websites, where officials blantantly kicked the coach out of the game.  The coach can hardly have a discussion with the official and he gets ejected.  Not even a discussion.  The coach and officials should have a working dialouge.

I have watched several high school games this year, and I can't even describe to you how disgusted I am with refs. In the NBA, guys get away with a lot of stuff that is basic basketball; travel, carry, moving screen, etc. That has now trickled down into college and now high school. EastTexasBB, I couldn't agree with you more...for a change. Coaches can't have a discussion with the ref without the refs getting an attitude and trying to throw the coach out or tech him up. Cool-breeze, I'm like you...it's hard to even watch this game we all love. And I'm not making excuses for Woodville losing, I wasn't even there so props to CH with their win and most likely the district championship.

While there definetly needs to be an accountability system for basketball officials, from the information I gathered on last nights game, both teams shot an equal 19 FT's.  That is about as even as you can get.  I heard some more interesting facts about the game that would refute some previous comments as well but for sake of argument I will just leave them out.  I would think both teams shooting 19 FT's and the game on Woodvilles homecourt would speak volumes.  If we are not going to accept excuses when these two teams play at one place lets do the same at the other.  That is in all fairness.

The game can always be blamed on the refs however as bad as they may be it is the players who must decide the outcome of this game.  In this case,  Woodville was without their best ball handler Darrin Sells who fouled out with four minutes to play.  At that point, Woodville held the lead.  Over the next four minutes, the Eagles committed 5 turnovers, missed 6 of 9 shots from the floor and converted only 2 of 7 free throws.  Add this to Central converting 7 of 8 from the line and a huge three with 1:11 to play and you have a Woodville loss despite the referees.  Central outscored Woodville 14 to 8 over the final four minutes and earned the win.

Since you mentioned I heard that Sells made a huge mental error and picked up that charge with 4 minutes to go.  PG has got to be smarted than that.  He has got tot know you need him in there for ballhandling and protecting the lead than trying to score which I am guessing is when he picked up his 5th was on the way to the basket.  If they had the lead, just pull it out and be smart.  If you have the lead, you have them where YOU want them and can dictate what they do.  Evidentally Woodville didnt do that to close the game out.  That should put CH by themselves in 1st, and Woden in 2nd with Woodville because Woden has the win over them but they have the same amount of losses.

There are always two sides to every story.  Trust me on this one.  Personally and socially.  I can understand both sides.  I was not there and did not see the charge/block?  I am just giving the opinions of some CH fans and how they saw the play.  They saw it as a charge. I dont know.  Either way, there should be an accountability system for the officials and the game cant be played over, so it is best to just go on and get ready for the next game.
