freeze 1914 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have said it once ( and got hammered by HJ fans and probably will gt hammered again) but you cant run that press against every team, especially a very athletic team like Silsbee. Silsbee destroyed that press majority of the game. until HJ get physical with these athletic teams they will play, its nothing Coach Sutherland will be able to do from the sideline. They got out powered for 3 quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoFo Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 From what I saw HJ did not protect the ball, did not move the ball like they usually do. (Zjori was wide open in the corner many times and did not get the ball). HJ did not rebound well even when we had the bigger team on the floor. Silsbee cut through the lane to the basket with very little problems. Silsbee played more physical in 3 of the 4 quarters. All in all Silsbee out played HJ and deserved the win. Also would like to point out it was a great atmosphere and HJ and Silsbee fans both got their money's worth and both sides of the team and fans were stellar in their sportsmanship. Looking forward to round 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggiesAreWe Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 A couple of firsts for me last night. First time I have ever seen any Silsbee team give up 37 points in one quarter. Also was the first time I have ever witnessed an HJ team never have a lead at any time during the game. After the 8-0 start for Silsbee (a lead that eventually hit 23 in the 3rd Q), the closest HJ got to Silsbee was 4 points with 7 seconds left in game (80-76). Silsbee has to stop squandering these big leads. Will eventually comeback to bite them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the scoreboard went blank in the 4th Q., you would have thought HJ had the lead and Silsbee was playing catchup. Lots of rushed and forced shots.

ST413 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 The Tigers did a lot of favors for HJ in that last quarter. Granted increased intensity by HJ was a cause in some of it. Poor decisions on the Tigers part played a big part as well. Several senseless fouls sending Hj to the line and way too many short offensive possessions as well as a loss of defensive intensity.

But that had little to do with us running down and hurrying shots or making poor fouls in the center of or back court.

Therefore, there were benefits from them at certain points and penalties for them at other points. The referees interpreted those actions differently later in the game. Bottom line is still that Silsbee was fully responsible for the good they did in three quarters and HJ was fully responsible for the good they did in the last quarter rather than because Silsbee got called for some fouls. Truth be told, I too would have preferred Silsbee not get called for the fouls you mentioned because HJ was starting to make a few threes and I would much rather have had HJ have additional field goal opportunities than to make every other free throw they took.

ST413 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Whether they were fouls in the first half doesn't matter. They definitely were in the second. My point was that in the fourth quarter the biggest opponent the hawks had was the clock. We needed to play good defense without reaching or trying for the tough steals and stopping that clock. We needed good offensive possessions to keep that clock running. Yes hj started hitting 3's but not everyone was going to go in. Could the game still have gotten close.....sure. We just didn't need to help by stopping the clock so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
