GAME THREAD - Pitt vs UNC ......

[Pittx9]

Pretty unfortunate James didn't get the continuation there. And one would've been big.

 

[Pittx9]

It's not just that they are turning it over, their turnovers have been stupid and unnecessary.

 

[PittPoker]

We are outclassed and overmatched.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Not everything is defense and turnover ratio.

When you give up seven baskets in eight possessions defense has at least a little something to do with that.

 

[Black_Man_Panther]

This is embarrassing on so many levels. I think Dixon has lost it. He looks like he doesn't even want to be there.

 

[Protes]

I wonder what Kitchcart is sitting behind our bench thinking right now ...

Hopefully, "Wow, I'm 100 times better than James Robinson."

 

[pittman71]

That would be funny.

At his news conference, Dixon said: "we played so bad, I resign."

after the season is over of course

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Um..
10 of UNC's points are off of turnovers.

And Unc is shooting 67% from distance and ambit 60% from the field.

That is the issues.

 

[Pittx9]

Robinson needs to keep driving to the hoop. Eliminate jump shots and he can be productive.

 

[gopitt10]

That was the first foul shot Pitt attempted in over 30 minutes of gameplay going back to Miami game

When you give up seven baskets in eight possessions defense has at least a little something to do with that.

When you have 6 possessions where a shot doesn't hit the rim, offense does too.

Let's actually see how the season ends, yes?

 

[Pav9870]

Is Artis ever not the last one back on defense?

 

[pittman71]

Let's actually see how the season ends, yes?

yes

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

Jeez bad TO on Young right there.

 

[Pittx9]

Mike Young is the worst ball handler/dribbler I've ever seen.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Jeez bad TO on Young right there.

Don't worry about turnovers or defense

 

[NCLee]

It would be nice if Mike young would make an extra pass once in a whike

 

[Delpanther]

Young"s not as good as he thinks he is

 

[Black_Man_Panther]

Haha... Robinson. You Robinson lover's had to love that one.

 

[Delpanther]

These grad transfer centers are just too terrific

 

[Pittx9]

Once again.... they make the game close then fall over and die.

 

[Protes]

Killer mistake by JRob with chance to cut it to 23-19. Dumb shot leads to easy breakout.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Turnovers don't matter.
Nor giving up uncontested threes

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

Wow. Like watching a mediocre AA team against Allderdice.

 

[Pav9870]

Talking about poor play, Gary McGhee was infinitely better on offense than Odoba.

 

[33pitt99]

Young"s not as good as he thinks he is

Could not agree more.

 

[NCanton Panther]

This sure isn't a lapse on defense so far, bad offense is definitely the culprit. We're giving them so many easy baskets in transition off of our stupid turnovers.

They have also hit their share of 3's so far, which you can give them credit for or blame on bad D?

 

[Pres.]

And Unc is shooting 67% from distance and ambit 60% from the field.

That is the issues.

hahaha. Right. Otherwise Pitt is dominating. JIG. giggle.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Of course it does. But then again part of that is because of turnovers, and you'd like us all to believe that they don't matter.

 

[Piranha]

It is ridiculous that we start our offense near half court.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

Turnovers don't matter.
Nor giving up uncontested threes

That was a 26 footer. And the TO's yeah, they suck. But you posted your post when it was 17 to 4 and we couldn't get a shot off.

 

[infinitypanther]

Those Nelson-Ododa and Young turnovers have become all too common this season. How many times have we had a guy try to force offense when it wasn't there and turn the ball over or miss a bad shot that started a fast break for the other team?

 

[Protes]

Ododa grabs the RB and every fan is saying "Give it up! Give it up!" Instead he attacks and travels.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

Of course it does. But then again part of that is because of turnovers, and you'd like us all to believe that they don't matter.

LOL what a joke.

Agree. It's not really the defense right now. They are just playing so insanely dumb offensively, that UNC can basically score at will.

 

[pittman71]

Many of these guys are trying and hustling so it is hard to really get mad at them, they are just going against better players

 

[Pittx9]

ANO should have never even entered this game.

 

[pittizit]

Just bad all around....JD...take a long look at any other offers

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

And 10 of they 17 were off turnovers.

 

[eastcoasthoops]

Disjointed. Everywhere.
