That's what I saw, too. Devo had no sense of playing as a POINT guard. No distribution. There was zero ball movement on our possessions. Just a bunch of forced shots by everyone based on failed one on one moves. And on the defensive side, we gave up tons of wide open, stand still threes. Pitt wasn't talented enough to do anything except wait for a pass after an over commitment in the zone, but they were good enough to hit 'warm up threes' as we sailed by, far too late to affect he shots.

Plus, weird lineups, probably as Blackwell struggled to find ANYONE who could hit a shot. I thought southerland should have been in earlier, but I wonder if there is some sort of challenge to integrating a player who hasn't been with this kind of team for the entire time. How do they divvy up the winning pot? Maybe that was an unfortunate consideration for James' minutes when the concentration should have been just on advancing regardless?

Oh, well. Always good seeing our guys. I thought, before it started, that we were going to need a steady outside shooter, as we seemed to have an imbalance with a lot of size. Yes, Rautins or DNich would have been valuable.

Baye really was one of the best of our players. As was Devo, but only in game one. Against Pitt, not so much.
