Louisville game thread

[Scruffy the Panther]

Young hot so far, everyone else isn't.

Also, Onuaku has some powerful sideburns.

 

[pittizit]

Too many turnovers

 

[LeftCoastPanther]

Turnovers early. Louisville's length is giving Pitt early trouble.

 

[Pav9870]

Need to stop the unforced turnovers. Look tight.

 

[noelr]

Ugly tos missed bunnies

 

[TiredRam97]

This is awful basketball.

 

[noelr]

Old school pitt play. 3 bad shots, 3 off rebs and a bucket. Took 60 secs

 

[Pav9870]

Notice how the hand check is no longer an automatic foul.

 

[TiredRam97]

Chris Jones needs a blow.

 

[pittizit]

Chris Jones sucking it

 

[Protes]

We are beating ourselves right now. Need to settle it down and get some better looks.

 

[Piranha]

We always play like garbage against 'Ville. Frustrating.

 

[UPitt '89]

The game is a turnover fest.

Louisville is making Pitt play hectic in our half-court offense. Need to settle things down.

 

[Delpanther]

Chris Jones has made enough mistakes already for 2 games. Louisville quickness giving Pitt fits

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Not a good couple of minutes from jones.
We will need him, though

 

[LeftCoastPanther]

What a bad turnover by Jones. The guys need to settle down.

 

[JD1976]

Jones. Yikes.

 

[noelr]

Tennis game. Unforced errors

 

[pittizit]

5 turnovers already...0-4 from 3

 

[NCLee]

Jones with 3 turnovers and air ball and a brick. Not good so far hope he turns it around!

 

[PittPoker]

Pitt still can't handle Louisville's press - been like that for years now.

 

[noelr]

I cannot believe they make coaches talk during tos now.

 

[Delpanther]

Gotta rebound stronger than this

 

[UPitt '89]

We have more turnovers in 13 minutes than we had in the past two games combined.

I'm not exaggerating. We do.

 

[TiredRam97]

Louisville isn't even that good. What the hell are these guys doing?

 

[Delpanther]

Man this offense is ragged. Our guard play needs to improve..

 

[DT_PITT]

This L-ville defense has been awesome. We haven't been bad either, but can't keep letting their bigs catch it so deep.

 

[PittPoker]

Damn we look bad right now. Can't handle Louiville's press, too many turnovers, no inside shots.

 

[Pav9870]

As pretty as the start at ND was, this one is just as ugly. Team does not look confident on offense at all.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

We know this team has a counter punch...
Let's see how we react.

 

[pittizit]

Get Artis back in the game...these freshman looked scared...

 

[DT_PITT]

Louisville isn't even that good. What the hell are these guys doing?

They are getting after it on D. Give the Cards credit, but we must respond.

 

[Delpanther]

We have more turnovers in 13 minutes than we had in the past two games combined.

I'm not exaggerating. We do.

Yes, it's true. Our guards are struggling

 

[PittPoker]

This is where James always struggles. Not quick enough against these kinds of teams. Looks out of sync.

 

[UPitt '89]

Louisville isn't even that good. What the hell are these guys doing?

Louisville decided to try to play an old, ugly BE game.

And we're obliging them. It's time for Pitt to play *OUR* game, instead of theirs.

Louisville is dictating the pace at both ends.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

We are feeding into this mythical press and just firing up bad shots and unforced turnovers. Settle down. What is happening now is the crowd is feeding off of this and now L'ville is feeding off of the crowd thinking they are doing this to us. Pitt is doing this to Pitt.

 

[Piranha]

We always look scared and play passive against them. Young and Artis are the only ones doing anything offensively.

 

[JD1976]

Louisville really has played awesome D so far. We will see if they can sustain.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

This is where James always struggles. Not quick enough against these kinds of teams. Looks out of sync.

You mean can't play 1 on 3 ?
Yeah, I agree.

 

[drgags]

Just seams like a road game start. Pitt bench giving nothing. Guys need to just move.

 

[pittzap]

Louisville dove for the ball, grabbed it, rolled out of bounds and there was still 1 second on the shot clock.

Why did they call a shot clock violation? They got possession. Should be our ball.

 

[Protes]

Chris Jones sucking it

Every time he has to handle the ball I hold my breadth.
