Central still has the same team they started the season with, Silsbee does not. Is Central playing better basketball than they were early in the season? YES!! But Silsbee was basically fielding a JV team those first 3 weeks of the season and now have their full compliment of a varsity team (4 varsity players before, 14 now). Three of Silsbee's top 5 scorers (1. Elam, 2. Holmes, 4. Reed) were still playing football and 4 of the first 5 off the bench(Jackson, Barnes, Brydson, Scott) were still in football those first 3 weeks. Personnel wise, Silsbee is no where near the team they were those first 3 weeks than what they are now. You cannot make that claim with Central.Silsbee has grown much more as a team than Central. That is a fact, not opinion.[/quote] Remember, Central started the season with 2 players that have never played a high school game in their lives. These two players started vs Silsbee...[b]an EXPERIENCED Silsbee team that had players on the court that was on last year's deep playoff run team.[/b][/quote]Two players for Silsbee (Wilson and Dobbins) was all that played against Central that was on Silsbee's deep playoff team last year. TWO!! Every other player were JV or freshmen players the year before. (besides Thomas who left Silsbee last year in December to go back to PA Memorial).[/quote]...and I'm willing to bet they were impact players that night and the rest of the games those football players were absent in...

All we said was Silsbee was better prepared for a game like this because they played better competition early on while HJ is so use to blowing teams out their sense of urgency is not where it should have been.

BADSANTA Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yes Silsbee lost to Lee! We all know Silsbee's football playets practiced one time before that game. Central lost to Silsbee's JV. Kountze beat Silsbee JV. Nederland beat Silsbee. HJ blew out Nederland. Who really has the best team in the area? If Silsbee haf a full team all year, their record could be 23-3 . I think tney would have lost one in thr YMBL, 1 in the Bulldog classic, and one to somebody else.

Typical fan[/quote]Since you are predicting a Silsbee victory in round two, I assume you also project WOS to win the second round as well because both teams are more athletic and HJ cant play with athletic teams, right? Most all teams lose some games and yet you would have us believe that HJ losing some is because of their scheduling "deficiency". The goal of the season ( rather than pleasing you with their scheduling) is to take the personnel that one has as as far in the playoffs as possible. In recent times, nobody has done a better job of that. You just happen to be one of those who resent the fact that a very small school from a one horse town can be a contender year in and year out and you are trying your best to discredit it. The record is there and you simply can do nothing about that because at playoff time all of the scheduling excuses and workout excuses (plus whatever Dove can come up with next) disappear. If there were a way to handicap high school basketball and make adjustments for student enrollment, the school would look even better. If I am a typical fan I guess that makes you a typical hater.

freeze 1914 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'm not hating at all, I'm just speaking how I feel. Silsbee will win round 2 because we have seen that HJ cant play with more athletic teams. I didnt say WOS because I have not seen them play this season. And Silsbee is more prepared for tight game situations because majority of HJ's 20+ wins have been blowouts and not close wins. So from this season,( not a past season), if the Silsbee game happens to be close throughout the contest, I'm going with the more physical and deeper team, whih happens to be Silsbee.
