Pitt-Clemson Game Thread

[JD1976]

FWIW it's the video feed looks good on MSG. Maybe someone at Root needs to check the satellite.

 

[Protes]

...and that may have been one of the absolute worst TO's I ever saw JRob make.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

And so it begins...
Nap time by the Panthers in the first half

 

[Pav9870]

We have to have the worst 3 point defense in the league. Everyone hits them against us.

 

[JD1976]

This performance won't help quiet the Robinson is slow and no good crowd.

 

[DT_PITT]

One day, we'll actually stay attached to shooters on the perimeter.
One day.
Failed philosophy by Dixon.

All the perimeter shots are wide open. Part philosophy, but this group has never rotated well either.

 

[Delpanther]

The O stinks so far as does the PG

 

[NCLee]

Nice game by our senior point guard

We have to be the worst team in America at not going to hot hand

 

[pittizit]

5 points in last 8 minutes

 

[PittPoker]

Same thing game after game, sloppy ball handling, bad shots, horrible defense. This is getting old. JRob with 0 points to boot.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

All the perimeter shots are wide open. Part philosophy, but this group has never rotated well either.

The help off is absolutely scheme, and it's killed us for years

 

[DT_PITT]

Gonna have to get some stops or this will get very, very ugly.

 

[PittPoker]

I didn't want to say it but yeah, sigh... doing nothing

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

I'm prepared for ugly

 

[pittizit]

Already is ugly

 

[King Of All Message Boards]

All the perimeter shots are wide open. Part philosophy, but this group has never rotated well either.

And when there is a guy there to defend they get the Raftery blow by.

 

[Pav9870]

Wow, do they look tentative and hesitant.

 

[DT_PITT]

The help off is absolutely scheme, and it's killed us for years

There are plenty of examples of rotation too.

 

[pittizit]

How bout a fin rebound just once

 

[PittPoker]

This performance won't help quiet the Robinson is slow and no good crowd.

Regardless of his lack of "flash", this kind of game by him so far is unacceptable. He is a senior and our point guard. It's sad.

 

[Pav9870]

How easy was that entry pass for the 3 point play. Inexcusably, lousy defense.

 

[Piranha]

At least Luther showed up. Most of them look to be going through the motions.

 

[PittPoker]

What was that by Wilson? That shot was awful.

 

[DT_PITT]

These last four minutes will decide the game. If we are down double digits, I think this one is over.

 

[pittizit]

Yep over if they down plus 12

 

[Piranha]

Young and Luther showed up - everyone else looks stuck in mud.

 

[Pav9870]

How can this team continue to look so disinterested in defense game after game?

 

[PittPoker]

Lol Young shooting 3's now. Is that in the game plan? Plus refs of course adding to the Pitt frustration by calling every little foul on us inside. No fouls forever on Clemson.

 

[JD1976]

Good to see Luther playing well at least.

 

[Protes]

What was that by Wilson? That shot was awful.

He simply is not a PG; can't run the offense and bad decision making.

 

[33pitt99]

I didn't want to say it but yeah, sigh... doing nothing

You, PittPoker, didn't want to say it??? Now there's a good one!

 

[whirlybird optio]

Get it to 10 at the half, you're in the game

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

They are over playing passing lanes.
Have to attack.

Artis has to sit

 

[PittPoker]

He simply is not a PG; can't run the offense and bad decision making.

Aside from that 2nd half at FSU, he has done next to nothing in recent conference games. So far tonight though I don't even have an answer.

 

[goalieman]

We need to start getting to the line.

To do that we need to either drive to the hoop or get it down low.

 

[PittPoker]

Clemson is just toying with us. The announcers are right, our guys are just standing around on offense. They look so disinterested.

 

[JD1976]

Clemson must be wondering how they aren't up by 20. Let's be honest , they are playing great.

 

[NCanton Panther]

Bad JRob has definitely showed up so far tonight.

And why are we so stubborn to feed the one guy who obviously has the hot hand. Luther makes 3 buckets, 2 of the 3's looking effortless and nothing but net. But then he is set up wide open for a 3 with no Clemson guy anywhere in site, JRob looks at him but refuses to pass it to him and goes the other way instead. And then we obviously have called plays for Cam Johnson and others, everyone except the guy with the hot hand. Makes no sense.

 

[PittPoker]

Wilson has a lot of potential.

 

[Pav9870]

Artis is not going to the NBA next year.

 

[pittizit]

Artis just sucks it tonite
