i watched the second half and was entertained. did anybody think perrantes wasn't taking the last shot ? i was curious as to why the student section was called the "oakland zoo". i googled this :

"The [B]Oakland Zoo[/B] is the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student_cheering_section']student cheering section[/URL] for the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Pittsburgh']University of Pittsburgh[/URL] [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_Panthers_men%27s_basketball']men's[/URL] and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_Panthers_women%27s_basketball']women's[/URL] basketball teams. The Zoo cheers on the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_Panthers_men%27s_basketball']Panthers[/URL]from the bottom tier of the stands at the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petersen_Events_Center']Petersen Events Center[/URL], primarily across from the teams' benches and on the baselines under the baskets. The "Pete" holds a rowdy crowd of 1,500 students that are typically uniformly clad in gold t-shirts, and the Zoo student section is consistently sold out for Panthers home games. The Oakland Zoo is named after [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Oakland_(Pittsburgh)']Oakland[/URL], the neighborhood in which the university is located. The name "Oakland Zoo" is used for the basketball cheering sections only; the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_Panthers_football']football[/URL] cheering section has often used the title, "The Panther Pitt."

i can't explain the shark (dolphin) other than a[I] bachelor[/I] reference.
