Pitt vs Miss St game thread

[pittbb80]

So much for being the worst 3-point shooting team in the country, LOL.

Classic As a Pitt fan we see this in every sport. Team or player have or season high in an area the stink at. Not a great start for the panthers

 

[JD1976]

Who was the guy at Turner that thought Avery Johnson would make for a good commentator?

I like him.

 

[The Ole Six-Fiver]

Of course Miss St will have a career day shooting the three against us.

Then go 3 for 27 in the next one, lol

 

[KennyTheKangaroo]

Sigh

 

[Pittisit4me]

Lol. MSU looks like they have a bunch of Steph Currys. No bricklaying so far.

 

[JD1976]

Worst 3 point shooting team in the country doesn’t mean you shouldn’t actually try to defend the arc

 

[thebadby2]

Just like we all expected, the worst three-pt shooting team in the country is lights out from beyond the arc to begin the game.

It’s like they’re shooting warm ups. No defense on those shots whatsoever. That will have to change. Fast

 

[Sam Young 23]

Yes. Exactly. Put a hand up

 

[Sam Young 23]

Zero defense being played

 

[thebadby2]

Diaz is killing is in there defensively and on the boards. Hapless

 

[Parkview57]

i know they hit a few but Pitt looks a lot better than they

 

[lostnite66]

God is Diaz weak.

wil miss fed fed for sure

 

[BballinsiderfromPitt]

if Diaz Graham isn’t making 4 3’s per game he’s useless.

 

[HailToPitt725]

How doesn’t Diaz Graham score off of that??

 

[The Ole Six-Fiver]

It’s like they’re shooting warm ups. No defense on those shots whatsoever. That will have to change. Fast

It hasn’t changed in 7 years

 

[Sam Young 23]

Much better def

 

[thebadby2]

How doesn’t Diaz Graham score off of that??

Panic and weakness

 

[Pitt2006]

There is a reason both of these teams are in the first four, but feel like Pitt is controlling pace and tempo. Just need shots to start falling.

 

[SteelCityChamps]

G. Diaz Graham whiffing in offense, but made a nice deflection on defense.

 

[Protes]

How doesn’t Diaz Graham score off of that??

Brutal. Missed opportunities the last few minutes. Terrible turnover by Burton earlier on the long pass down court, too.

 

[PPanthers1]

How doesn’t Diaz Graham score off of that??

He plays so soft

 

[Pitt_Boss]

MSU putting up some bricks now

 

[HailToPitt725]

I like him.

I think he can make some good points from time to time, but he just seems a bit unprepared to me. Just my opinion.

 

[DruidTM]

We’re actually not playing poorly here. Getting some rebounds … just need to hit more shots

 

[TD_6082]

This is some ugly basketball

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

How doesn’t Diaz Graham score off of that??

He just had to go straight up and score.

 

[Pitt_Boss]

It’s funny tho, Pitt fans were saying for days that of course MSU was going to make threes against us and social media was drilling the Pitt fans as miserable whiners. But lol we just know

 

[DruidTM]

These ACC refs are killing us. Calling way too many fouls on us.

Troll alert 🚨

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

MSU putting up some bricks now

It's opposite day. 4-6 on threes, 1-6 on twos.

 

[Black Panther]

Of course Miss St will have a career day shooting the three against us.

Seems they did the same thing to us in the NIT game back in 2001.I can still hear the Dick Groat WOW s

The effort and movement on offense are there so far.

 

[LGP1989]

JDG will settle in, let him get some minutes here. Kid is 19 and going up against a grown man in the biggest stage on this sport.

 

[thebadby2]

Really bad bailout foul by JB there

 

[The Ole Six-Fiver]

Crap. Burton with two stupid cheapies

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Good foul. Like to get them when there's two seconds on the shot clock and their back is to the basket.

And #2 = Fisch Time.

 

[thebadby2]

JDG will settle in, let him get some minutes here. Kid is 19 and going up against a grown man in the biggest stage on this sport.

He’s physically way out of his league in this game.

 

[TD_6082]

Did I hear Texas A&M?

 

[The Ole Six-Fiver]

Texas A&M? Same colors I guess

 

[D Able]

Good luck to you guys tonight! Let’s Go Pitt!!!! Represent the ACC! From a BC fan.

 

[HailToPitt725]

I’m surprised Miss State isn’t feeding inside more. They seem to be fine with swinging it around the perimeter for an open look.
