Pitt vs UVA Gamethread

This game is frustrating Pitt down NOT by any insurmountable score or anything but everything Virginia gets looks entirely too easy ?
 
Pitt needs to pick up the pace and go for quick foul outs
 
This is an offensively challenged Virginia team and they are shooting 70 percent this half. Embarrassing
Defense!

Commentators got it right. First to 60 wins. Good fight, just don’t have a full roster to push past a team like UVA.

UVA isn’t good though. This isn’t like at their place where it was a good loss. No game plan besides give the ball to Hugley every single time? Someone else has to score. With how many touches he got early, he was exhausted, couldn’t play well late and ended up with 7 turnovers.
 
Just so little basketball talent on this team. I'm amazed we've kept as many games close as we have. We are the 2021 Steelers of college basketball.

Why give ball to hugley? Because we don’t have the players to beat even a down UVA.

I understand why he gets the ball. I’m questioning giving it to him every single time, making him the playmaker for the team, and his minute usage. His efficiency, which is just ok as is, is gonna get worse in February. He would make the same impact on the game with 5 less minutes and be refreshed. You have to do SOMETHING to try and develop some other options
 
Maybe you don't understand what happens when the refs call nonstop fouls. 🤔
Yah, nice call. I guess it was all those fouls that made us look clueless handling ball screens and getting pinned down on screens several times giving easy lanes to the basket. Maybe we would have had a couple guys foul out if we hacked them instead of letting them make uncontested layups. No team, even a team with real talent, unlike Virginia, should ever shoot 70 percent in a half. Don't blame the refs for our inability to stay in front of our man. That was the same defense we played against the Cuse and got whacked and the Cuse actually has some kids who can score.
