We've looked good so far. Active on D and some good passing.
 
Tough sequence, and shows why a backup point guard and forward depth is so necessary. Xavier picks up his second on a questionable call. Murphy subs in, immediately gets blown by off the dribble for an easy layup, hesitates and proceeds to clank a three on the other end, and then is late getting back and UVA gets another layup. Then, Trey actually fires a really nice pass into Hamilton, who can’t catch it and turns it over two possessions after getting two shots blocked.
 
I don't like that long 2 from Murphy. Makes no sense to take that shot if not completely wide open.
 
Yeah, that "and one" call when we were up 12-9 was awful. This is not supposed to be the NBA!
Yea he clearly fouled him before the ball even came close to leaving his hands. These refs get worse and worse each game.
 
God awful turnover by X there with a chance to hold the ball until the final seconds of the half to tie the game.

Overall not a bad half. Pitt played pretty good defense and forced a bunch of turnovers. This will be a close game Pitt will have a chance to win.
 
At times, and much too often, Trey place with a very low IQ.
Not a bad half. Murphy missed 3 very make able shots. Others took some bad shots. Lost their 3 point shooters a couple of times.

Hustle and offensive rebounds keeping us in game.

Like every other game we play, we need to play smarter.
 
Champagnie hit a couple shots late in the half hopefully that gets him going. Need a better half from him scoring if Pitt’s gonna win this game.
 
Effective screens is at 1 the entire first half for Pitt . TB set it and X drove for a successful layup .

Too bad KS Isn’t here he could get the Patriots wr coach to come in and show Pitt how to run successful pick plays !

2 points in the first 7 minutes of this half and down 11 now is gonna be hard to overcome. Pitt just continues to have one of these long droughts every single game for around 5-7 minutes usually which just kills any chance they have to win.
 
Pitt is down by 11-12 points yet they continue to hold the ball until about 5 seconds left on the shot clock and won’t take any 3’s to try and cut into this lead.
 
I just don't see how he fits next year. He's 4th in line in the backcourt at best.

He was worth a flyer because why not. Had nobody else. But they need way higher level players than him. He’s not nearly skilled enough. He’s totally one dimensional and that dimension isn’t all that great. Not at this level anyway.
 
Bench is 0-8, 1 point. Really hoping we have a legit 8 deep with the freshmen next year, don't know if that's unrealistic.
