***Pitt @ Va Tech Game Thread***

[GomerTV]

We're getting beat in EVERY statistic

 

[GomerTV]

Maybe the wins we have were an illusion or lucky and this team is really closer to a 0.500 team overall. I'll reserve judgement until I see what they do in the second half. If they don't blow the doors off this VT team, this is going to be a long season after a promising start.

Just going through the motions right now. Getting outrebounded, outcoached, outscored, playing piss poor defense against a bad team.

Sounds like football.

We're getting beat in EVERY statistic

Except turnovers (7 each) and FT's (neither team shot a single one!).

 

[PittPanther44]

Sounds like football.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say we see a different team in the second half, and win going away. Just seen too much good so far this year to concede that the last game and a half is who we are.

 

[TIGER-PAUL]

Miss St gave everyone an early blueprint. Jeff has to coach out of it against the bad teams.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Copy-paste from football. Hot start, get ranked #18, play like utter s**t from that point onwards.

The old 7th win curse.

Jeff coaching… LOL.

thought we had 8

 

[JD1976]

I think one of those were Jorge, but the box score is blaming GDG - lol

Way too much GDG. He needs to sit more.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Absolutely no strength on this team. Please send the String Bean Brothers back to Veggieland after this season.

 

[Protes]

We finally have a fast-break opportunity and instead of attacking the rim, we pass back out for a 3. #smh

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Way too much GDG. He needs to sit more.

I honestly don't think he would start for most mid-majors. Decent piece to have off the bench, but he doesn't excel at any one position well enough to start on a good team.

 

[pittbb80]

GDG with another brick. He hasn’t made a three since the 8th grade picnic

 

[pittbb80]

This team lives and dies by the three

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Put a fork in this season. Wayyyyyyyy too deficient at the 4 and 5.

 

[SteelBowl70]

VT is letting Pitt back in but we say no thanks

 

[SteelBowl70]

VT 7-18 shooting 3s and Pitt 4-20
Twins are 0-6 - just STOP

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Heyyyyy, GDG! Guess the ball does fit in that little orange circle thingy after all.

 

[pittbb80]

Corem sleep walking. Dude barely has a pulse

 

[SteelBowl70]

3 chances to tie the game or lead and 3 clangs
5-23

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Lowe had like three better looks on the way to that contested layup.

 

[Protes]

How was that not a shooting foul on Cummings?

 

[DruidTM]

A LOT of shots just not going down

That’s not helping

 

[Pitt666]

5 straight games away from Pete. Regression to the mean will happen eventually.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

We should be able to beat this team on the moon. No excuses.

 

[Dewey Eye]

We are in the bonus. Drive to the damn hoop

 

[pittbb80]

Given the circumstances this game is worse than Miss st

 

[DruidTM]

We can’t hit 3s

They can

 

[pittbb80]

Stick a fork in this team.

 

[pittbb80]

Brick layer GDG

 

[PittAU]

5/27 from 3. Let’s shoot some more!

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Being too good for the NIT looks pretty funny now. That might end up being Capel's second-best season in like a ten year tenure.

 

[pittbb80]

Body language is awful. They are beaten

 

[DruidTM]

Someone remove the Saran Wrap off our hoop please

 

[Gep Dawg]

I don’t understand how you come back out after a butt kicking and sleep walk in the follow up to a bad team

 

[pittbb80]

I think we can put the Lowe to the NBA after this year talk to the rest.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

5/27 from 3. Let’s shoot some more!

We do nothing well that travels. If the threes aren't falling, we can lose to arguably the worst team in a power conference. And we are.

 

[SteelCityChamps]

When you have no inside threat all the outside shots are defended.

 

[pittbb80]

I don’t understand how you come back out after a butt kicking and sleep walk in the follow up to a bad team

Because you lack any type of toughness at the 3,4 and 5. Shut down the guard penetration and make them shoot threes. That’s the key to stopping this team. The have no other scoring options

 

[PittPharm2002]

Offense is so out of sync
Defense not much better
