Guest ladyraider03 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 With the holidays over, thought it was time to start talking about this game Friday night. Lumberton, a onetime ranked team, against Vidor, the streakiest team in Texas. This week of practice will benefit Lumberton and allow them to figure out their late struggles and get back to playing how they did the first month of the season. I have seen Vidor play a few times and after watching them, my Lady Raiders have the better dribblers and will turn Vidor's press into fast breaks. As for #14 and #3 for Vidor, the defense will be ready to handle them and will hold them to under 20 each. I do not understand how they are considered great players when all they do are shoot threes and drive and miss 3/4 of the time. This is also their first road test and do not think the freshman Jacks will be able to handle the crowd noise. All in all, my Lady Raiders should be ready for this game and not overlook it like some Beaumont team against Vidor and win by 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HFfan5 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 ::) I can assure if not both, at least one of those girls will score 20+ friday night. Might be close in the 1st half but I see a score somewhere along the lines of 68-40 friday night and not in the favor of the team wearing baby blue ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underarmor Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 vidor gets a lot of shots maybe not the kind we are used to seeing but i think philosophy is shoot 100 times and make 35% plus free throws and you score 75. Should be enough to win if you play defense and that is what is deceiving about vidor, they do play defense. Make no mistake Richmond may be one of the best players in the area.75-52 vidor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ladyraider03 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Well besides Richmond, who does Vidor have? #3 only shoots if she thirty feet away, I think #20 something is a freshman and this is her first away game versus a good team. Then #4 plays like she is out on the playground she just takes playing out of control to a whole new level. Seriously who does Vidor even have and the defense outside of the press is horrible. The coach needs to take less time in practice on threes and spend at least five minutes on defense without fouling. The Lady Raiders have no reason to lose to team of this caliber. Our girls should be able to jump all their passes and easily break the press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People always want to say, everything we do wrong, but we work our butt off year round to be where we are. And 18 and 5 that doesn't sound streaky to me. We've played in multiple away games, against very good teams, and done just fine. Oh and, we go over defense all the time. But I'll let the game do the rest of the talking. Better see you there.

Don't get on here bashing our team. They are a family and they are very proud of what they have accomplished and what they will accomplish this season. Until you learn what family is, then you have no idea what these girls can accomplish. Sometimes all it takes to win a game is heart...RANKINGS mean nothing!

WelcomeToTheBoneyard Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 I have to say this to the Lady Pirates that read this...You are a great team and a great group of young ladies. You don't need anyone telling you otherwise. Rankings mean absolutely nothing. You could be #1 in the state, but if you don't have character, heart, and determination it means nothing. You may never see a ranking in your high school days, but you will ALWAYS be able to take with you what Coach Jacks has taught and that is working together as a FAMILY and CHARACTER, HEART, AND DETERMINATION!!!

Lumberton is improved, but let's not get carried away. There are way too many holes in this logic to even try to cover up. Good luck to your girls though. I think Vidor has a chance to move up to the #2 playoff spot if they continue to play well in what I believe is the last year of the Jacks era. Fast paced team that will not at all be effected by the "crowd noise" @ Lumberton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vhsladypirates Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Not TWO very good teams, just ONE. And those lady pirates deserve every bit of recognition. They have worked their tails off and it shows. While they were playing in the Barbers Hill tournament last weekend, Lumberton wasn't playing at all. I predict Lady pirates will get in their groove and shut down Lumberton with one of their many presses and score big as they swoosh the ball on lady raiders heads over and over. We win by 20+ and that's with 3rd string in. Heck Lumberton lost to Buna and vidor beat Buna by 20 and that's with #3 having an "off" night. Good luck defending #3 & #14. All around good players. I think thetorribiddle said it very well. The scoreboard will do all the talking as raiders walk away tonight in awe of the might Lady Pirates. Then on to give central a taste of their game Tuesday as they win over them too. They are a pleasure to watch. All playing together as one big heart...one big F A M I L YDetermination + Dedication + Guts = Vidor Lady Pirates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest flyonwall12 Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 Coach Jacks is not going to leave Vidor after the season. Why would he want to? He is at a place where the community supports him. While Vidor may graduate Richmond, Biddle, and a few other varsity players, Allison is going to be a senior next year and Amber and the other varsity players are only going to get better. This is his third year and the team is finally starting to show the full effects of his system, along with its implementation in the lower levels. This is probably right up there with some best teams he has coached, but what makes this team different is how close they are. Next year's team may not be able to replicate what this year's team does, but Jacks is not a coach that is going to win and run, he is one that take on the challenge.And this thread is not about if Jacks is going to leave or not it is about the game tonight, which will be hard fought but Vidor should be able to win by 17. Let's keep the rumor mill at bay until March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, the results have been opposite of predicted. This sounds like a fan who has been drinking lots of sour grape juice. Lumberton may win tonight. Anything can happen on any given night. And Vidor can have bad offensive streaks (as can any team that relies on the deep ball). But so far this year, Vidor has played much better than Lumberton. And if you cannot see the skills that each of the Lady Pirates bring to the table, then you are blinded from drinking the Hatorade. None of the girls are perfect, but they all bring more than 1 skill to the table. Now, I will admit that I am a Pirate fan. But I think I can still be objective. Go Lady Pirate.
