Pitt-ND Game Thread

It was more than 8 minutes in before Pitt’s best offensive player got the ball for an offensive play.

8 points in ten minutes is not good. Need to create better shots..well, and then actually make them.
 
We shoot 3's like we're good at them. No effort to get good shots. No effort to free up our best shooter. When our best shooter finally gets it, he drives, forces it and throws up prayer.

If we can't score more than 80 against this team, how can we expect to beat anyone else on the schedule? And we're not scoring 80 today. If we get to 20 this half, we'll be lucky. ND is a really bad team. And they are dragging us down to their level.
 
Good to see ball movement on 2 of their last series. And playing offense off of good defense.

This game shouldn't be close, but it is. ND's defense is keeping them in the game because they can't score.

Our ball movement wasn't bad all half. We just weren't hitting 3's and set back by some bad shot selection. Plus, 4-8 form the line. Luckily, ND isn't shooting any better than us. I think we need to continue with the 3-guard lineup. Ish's ability to penetrate really helps us. As long as he doesn't force and kicks the ball out, it should yield some open looks.
 
Potentially big 3rd foul on Bub. Needed his D on Burton. Jaland can't seem to keep with him. Let's see if Ish can handle him.
 
3 on Burton. Can't see ND winning without him now. They should just keep him in the game.
 
Very hard for me to get a read on this team this season. Hard to trust this team but when they get hot.
I suppose 5-6 in the ACC with this schedule so far ain't too bad.
 
Lowe goes to the dressing room injured and Bub commits a dumb foul to end his night. Not smart.
 
Leggett was the difference today. His rebounds and assists along with consistent scoring willed Pitt to this win. 12 pts, 5 rebounds, 2 assists. Pretty good night.

We'll need to clean some things up on defense against a much better NCState team to win that one on the road. ND scored 38 in the second half, and they are scoring challenged.
 
Lowe was kinda quiet but he got 11 pts., 4 rebounds, 5 assists.

We had 12 turnovers, which any other night would have been a disaster. But ND sucks pretty bad.
 
Nice win but it was pretty sloppy. Another ice cold shooting start. Thankfully, we were playing ND who really isn't very good. Gotta play better but getting a W is always a good thing.

One of the best crowds of the Capel era. Got to meet Carl Krauser. Our back court continues to be a strength
 
Nice to put a couple wins together .
Too bad we couldn’t pulled off the Miami comeback

They are mediocre & inconsistent, That basically puts them in the same boat as the rest of the ACC. Outside of UNC & Duke, the rest of the league really doesn't have the players.
