-	We again avoided a horrendous start, again saving that for the second part of the first half. Fortunately, Pitt was just as bad over that stretch and we were able to lead by a point at the half. At one point we missed 10 shots in a row, but they missed 8 of 9 in the same stretch.

-	Eddie Lampkin played out of his mind, pulling down 23 rebounds. He’s one of seven guys who have grabbed 23 rebounds in a game for us but the first since Derrick Coleman, (#44) in 1990, (Dave Bing had 25 in 1966 and Frank Reddout 34 in 1952: they missed a lot of shots in 1952).

-	He led us to a 48-31 edge on the boards, which is what Pitt used to do to us, even if there were some critical ones we didn’t get at the end.

-	We had 5 guys in double figures: how often were all five of them on the court at the same time? A lot of them got to play more because Starling was in foul trouble.

-	Petar Majstorovic was one of those double figure guys! He was 4 for 5 and even made a three.

-	Starling didn’t have a great game, but 4 rebounds and 5 assists improved the look of his line. Chris Bell was 4 for 9 on threes and scored 12 points. The rest of his line was all zeros, except for two turnovers.

-	We hit 11 threes, 34%. That could have won us some other games.

-	Lucas Taylor has again lost his shot, (0 for 4 from three: He started 1 for 13, then went 11 for 19 and he’s now missed 9 in a row: that’s 12 for 41, 29%).  But he was 5 for 8 inside the arc. Had 7 rebounds, an assist and a steal.

-	Elijah Moore hit a couple of threes and had a couple of assists. The beginning of something?

-	We slugged it out on pretty much even terms with a 14-6 team. But we’re still a 9-11 team.

9-11 and 13+ to go

LET’S GO ORANGE!
