I'm loving all the high school hoops action, but I gotta say, some of these scores are just too good to be true 
. Like, how did Hyde Park beat Phillips 58-27? 
Did they have a significant size advantage or something? And what's up with King crushing Dyett 63-20? Is that even possible on the court? 
Are coaches really that into OT battles now?
It's crazy how much high school hoops action is happening tonight. I mean, I've seen some tight games, but King taking down Dyett 63-20? That's a statement win right there 
I also love seeing teams like Simeon and Morgan Park doing well - it's always awesome to see the best of the best in Chicago sports dominating the competition 
just saw this crazy list of high school hoops scores 
it's like a never-ending highlight reel out there! how do coaches even keep track of all these stats? 
. The competitive spirit is really coming alive in Chicago, and I love it 
... what if the overemphasis on sports, especially high school basketball, is actually doing more harm than good? 
Meanwhile, we're neglecting their actual education and well-being. 
It's time for us to rethink our priorities and focus on what really matters - the kids' mental health and academic success shouldn't take a backseat to winning a game. 
...I'm sure that was a thrilling game for all 10 people watching 
Anyway, it's cool to see the smaller teams giving those powerhouse schools a run for their money. Maybe someone will even become a pro baller and make us all proud 
I mean, what's up with all these high school basketball games? It's like the whole city is just one big hoop fest 
. I'm pretty sure my couch has been broken in twice this week alone.
. I mean, Hyde Park beating Phillips 58-27 is basically like saying "I'm gonna crush you"... not that I've ever been in a sports game where I wasn't going to get crushed 
so many exciting wins and thrilling comebacks! It's clear that these teams are hungry for victory
