It “FEELS” like we have quite a few ridiculous to good shooters on this team. We ”MAY” have the best guard play that Pitt has ever had.
I would include last year but you can’t because really it is a different team, but why are we fighting to be in the top 5 of the conference and praying we make the tournament?
Back in the era of #1 seeding and Sweet Sixteen, we sometimes had a pretty good shooter and maybe a great shooter in Sam. We usually had one pretty decent guard but not necessarily as adept at scoring as J-Lowe and Bub.
Our secondary starters and guys off the bench don’t seem inherently different then as compared to today.
Our 5s were “PROBABLY” more impactful back then.
The competition that we face is a bit watered down compared to some of those heady days.
I am thrilled where we are rising from the ashes but once in a while I wonder with the tools and equipment we have why we are not like we were back then?
Are things more over hyped today with social media and maybe the reflection I am seeing of this team is not truly reality?
Thoughts?
