**HAMSHIRE-FANNETT @ SILSBEE Broadcast**/ TIGERS WIN 86-48!

[AggiesAreWe]

The #7 state ranked, #1 SETXsports Silsbee Tigers will play host to the Hamshire-Fannett Longhorns TONIGHT at the Tiger Den on the campus of Silsbee High school. The Longhorns (14-13, 3-4) are trying to keep their playoff hopes alive after defeating Bridge City Saturday, 64-52. The Tigers (26-2, 7-0) come off a dominating win over WOS, winning 73-46, to remain undefeated in district play and to extend their current win streak to 15 games. Silsbee can clinch the #1 seed and at least a co-district championship with a win over the Horns. HF needs to win at least 2 of their remaining 3 to have a shot at the playoffs. In the last meeting, Silsbee squeaked out a 64-57 win over the Horns.

[/quote]Why? IF HF cut down on errors, control the boards on both ends, hustle on defense, intelligent substitutions, push the ball up the floor  instead of walking into their press; they have a good chance of making a good statement tonight.

And make a decent percentage of attempted shots?

Bluedove this is my prediction. What's yours?

[/quote]All my predictions usually come true. So I will remain quiet. Well okay, I think Silsbee wants to send a message out tonight that HF doesn't belong in the same gym with them. For HF to win, they gotta go dedicate a 100% hustle, smart play and tough mental focus to the game (discipline and maturity). Once HF gets down and frustrated the game is over. Silsbee wins.

HF already had their statement game against Silsbee.  I think Silsbee comes back and makes a statement of their own tonight.  I'm gonna say Silsbee wins big, 80-44.  And yes, I'll gladly come and eat some crow if i'm badly wrong.

[AggiesAreWe]

All I know is, I have spoken to a few of the Tiger players and bullets, you are right, Silsbee will make a statement tonight. They want to show that last game with HF was bit of a fluke.

I see Silsbee winning by 25+.

[/quote]When Silsbee played HJ the first time, it was a party atmosphere.  Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with that, for the players were loose and not uptight before the game.

But when they came to HJ, they were much more focused.... none of the pre-game antics like the first game. 


I think tonight you're going to see that same focused team intending to put HF away early.

[/quote]I saw Silsbee at HF with "party atmosphere"  @ 1st game. But I hope HF bust a few balloons tonite ;)

[/quote]Thats what I'm saying. Silsbee has a statement to make tonite. Now they have something to play for..bad combination when this happens.

[/quote]Fluke? Silsbee came in with no purpose the first game. Kinda like how Galveston Ball came to play Silsbee that night ;)

[AggiesAreWe]

Another good example of Silsbee being more focused was the game this past Saturday with WOS. The first time, Silsbee beat WOS in Silsbee by only 9 points. The next time (Saturday at WOS) the Tigers jumped out to a 17-4 lead and never looked back on their way to a 73-46 win. This also was Coach Travis Williams first game back. The players seem to be much more focused now and I look for better play from this team from here on out. Silsbee will also get one of their key reserves back this Friday which will help them greatly down the stretch.


Another key fact in tonight's game, Prentice Lane will play. He did not play against HF the last time, nursing an injury. Prentice is playing very well of late and I see another great game from him tonight.

The difference in that comparison is Galveston Ball does not beat Silsbee without their head coach, second best player and key reserve not there. Where as Silsbee did just that against the Longhorns in HF. ;)

[/quote]Is his ankle (or is knee?) still hurting?  I thought I saw him almost come up lame in the last HJ game.

I certainly said that. It's just too hard on me seeing my HJ friends get disappointed again for the 3rd time. ;) ;D Two times is enough.

Besides, if that were to happen, Coldspring may take care of that possiblity before it happens. ;)
