Tylers hands are really bad

Well he can hardly see to be fair

How does Pitt only have 6 fouls this half?

 

[OttoinGrotto]

If you could harness the energy from the frustration Rak feels when he gets clobbered in the paint, you could power Manlius for 6 months.

Freaking artis

he's a great player

Roberson's face looks like Apollo Creed's in the hospital at the beginning of Rocky 2.

 

[Libero2]

Just not enough offense today. Missed way to many open shots. That's the story.

Its unreal.

The moment Pitt went up 10 early in the 2nd half, this game was effectively over. Did we ever even get the lead down to 4?

 

[longislandcuse]

It's not a coincidence some scrub goes off on us every other game. Zone defense is garbage and we have no other option. It's pathetic.

 

[GFTakedown]

Is it best to sit Cooney right now because he can't defend nor shoot with his back issues?

That is fair. Im frustrated. But i do think he has bad hands. Fumbles a lot.

That and pitt is just hitting everything. They absolutely love playing vs zone.

 

[Alsacs]

The zone and lack of on ball pressure and Pitt late shot clock execution made a comeback hard. I mean we just let them take 28 seconds on the shot clock every possession.

 

[Libero2]

Its unreal.

I'd also like to point out we had four called in a 75 second stretch

 

[NineOneSeven]

It's amazing how we just can't get stops seemingly all half.

Like usual, we lose games in the last few mins of the first, and first few minutes of the second.

And because our defense is so poor, we can never overcome it.

This is just like duke.

W

we have 14 offensive rebounds Pitt has 8 we are just not making shots.

That may be what the stats say. But there was a about a five minute sequence there where Pitt just opened up their lead with a sequence of 2nd chance points.

But agreed. We cannot score consistently. This ones is as good as over as i see it.

As was said by another, we've all seen this Pitt game over and over.

Hes a zone killer. You know the type.

We need a 2nd defense. And more shooters. Lol and a healthy roster.

We have attempted 18 free throws and Pitt only 4. I'm not worried about the officiating.

 

[NineOneSeven]

I wish Chris jones was suspended again

 

[We Are Syracuse]

I'm so sick of all zone, all the time.

Really is painful to watch

 

[NineOneSeven]

KEEP COONEY OUT

 

[Orangezoo]

Should be and 1 on that

 

[supp]

Roberson's face looks like Apollo Creed's in the hospital at the beginning of Rocky 2.

They sure made him pay for that early effort on the offensive boards. JTIII can't hold a match to Dixon. Dixon is Big John's real son. They should switch mascots with G'town.

 

[JAXCUSE]

Press looks good.

I just hate we only use it at desperation time...
