GAME THREAD - Pitt vs Louisville .......

[UPitt '89]

Louisville guards have decided to emulate Artis and Young and dribble into traffic out of control.

 

[FieldHouse12]

Come on Cam

 

[TiredRam97]

I didn't like that JRob shot, and of course it leads to a transition 3.

 

[Delpanther]

If we hit our open shots we'd be up by 15-20

 

[LivinWell]

89 you seriously need a drink

 

[UPitt '89]

Louisville shooting 27% in the second half.

Need to keep it that way.

 

[UPitt '89]

89 you seriously need a drink

I need more than one.

 

[JD1976]

Ryan Luther leading a big run. Young on the bench.

 

[UPitt '89]

Young needs to Stay on the bench. Pitt up 11-3 since he went to the bench.

 

[UPitt '89]

....and of course... Luther comes out and Young is back in.

Ugh.

 

[FieldHouse12]

I have no fingernails left .

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

They aren't mutually exclusive. You can make the FGs *AND* make the FTs.

Also... if you are being fouled and at the line, you have less opportunities for FGs.

Of course they are...
So why harp on every opportunity to score 1 more point possession.. And not each opportunity to score 2 or 3 from every other missed shot, which are way more valuable???

You're obsessed and annoying

 

[UPitt '89]

Artis and Young combined for 7 turnovers.

Young comes in, and Pitt's run ends.

Not a coincidence.

 

[MartyInLawrenceville]

And a charge by Artis...smh...

 

[Delpanther]

Another dumb move by ArtisArtis

 

[Protes]

I didn't like that JRob shot, and of course it leads to a transition 3.

Had Jeter open underneath, too. Not JRob's best decision there.

 

[TiredRam97]

Onuako should have been T'd up there.

 

[UPitt '89]

Of course they are...
So why harp on every opportunity to score 1 more point possession.. And not each opportunity to score 2 or 3 from every other missed shot, which are way more valuable???

Because one way of scoring is uncontested. It is called "free" for a reason.

You don't expect to make all your 2s and 3s when there's a team contesting you.

 

[TiredRam97]

Take Luther out of the game, 8-0 LVille run. Keep forcing Jeter out there Dixon!

 

[UPitt '89]

It is not a coincidence that Young comes back in, and Pitt fails to get a single good scoring opportunity and fails to defend the rim.

Put Luther back in!

 

[PittPoker]

Okay Jamie, this lineup now sucks!!!

 

[UPitt '89]

Louisville hasn't pressed Pitt at all in this game. Watch Pitino pull it out in the final minutes and Pitt won't be ready.

 

[UPitt '89]

Young finally contributes to the effort. Now make the damn FT.

 

[PittPoker]

SEE THIS IS WHY WE NEED A NEW COACH. DIXON TAKES HIS BEST PLAYER TONIGHT OUT, FORCES JETER IN AND YOUNG BACK AND NOW WE JUST BLEW THE 8 POINT LEAD. RIDICULOUS!!!

 

[UPitt '89]

Imagine where'd we'd be with all the points that Young has left on the floor today.

 

[TiredRam97]

I'm holding Dixon accountable for this impending loss for pulling Luther.

 

[PittPoker]

Close game now, would be nice JRob gets hot late.

 

[TiredRam97]

Need a better pass from Jones.

 

[Delpanther]

We've pissed away more opportunities to score in this game

 

[PittPoker]

I'm holding Dixon accountable for this impending loss for pulling Luther.

He needs to go. If we lose this is all on him.

 

[iMissTheOldDays]

GOD DAMNIT

 

[JD1976]

Damn! 2 on 1 break and fumbled out of bounds with a chance to lead.

 

[TiredRam97]

Those 7 missed FT's would be useful about now.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Need a better pass from Jones.

Pass was fine.
Luther lost it on the way up.

 

[iMissTheOldDays]

This is it man we cannot lose this game I don't care what anyone says we are at home we need it and they are handing it to us

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Those 7 missed FT's would be useful about now.

As would stopping any of the 6 out of 8 Threes

 

[TiredRam97]

There's Harry getting lost in the zone again.

 

[Fan101]

J Rob needs to make some 3's down the stretch....

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

As would stopping any of the 6 out of 8 Threes

Or that one

 

[TiredRam97]

What in the blue hell was that set?
