[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Another point, look at the free throws. We won without our usual free throw advantage. Huge.

Much needed win. Thanks for bringing the wagons back boys.

Where's Charlie?

Watching replays of the EWU upset on repeat. Too much happiness on this board for him.

You have to give Crean credit here. Defense was much improved. To beat a very good team where yogi and jbj were basically non factors is a statement.

I like this team, Holt is the real deal (VIDEO GAME STYLE GEM), SINGLE DiGIT TURNOVERS BABY!

[Alford Bailey 12,841]

Defense looked better but Pitt still missed alot of open looks. Gotta keep workin on the D. Liked the way the guys fought. Emmitt, WOW. We found our inside presence.

I don't remember Charlie being so grumpy on the ESPN boards in 2012... Eh, it's probably because we had a good team, and because all the trolls on there were worse.

I think Holt will be a major piece going forward. To me he looks more natural and aware than HMP right now. Hartman looks like a permanent part of the rotation and Johnson may end up being our best all around player before he's finished.

[Alford Bailey 12,841]

Missed part of the first half. Did Stan play?

maybe he'll meet the prozac doobie brothers

I'd like to see us keep the rotation with these 8:

1. Yogi
2. JBJ
3. RoJo
4. Troy
5. Hanner
6. NZ
7. Holt
8. Hartman

At this point make the others earn PT by beating out one of these in practice. There's no need to play 11 guys in a game.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

The pace of play creates the need for more than 8.

61% from the stripe is UNACCEPTABLE. Forget the "we make more than our opponents shoot" mantra. Just make the freebies that you get. Not making those FTs is giving points away.

 

Troy was out of control a lot tonight, and Stan should still be in the locker/film room. Holt stepped up huge tonight.

 

Over all, not a bad effort!

Not a typical Pitt team of the last few years but yea, I'll give him credit. Giving Holt those minutes was huge.

Define "play". He managed to log 5 minutes, 2 boards, 2 assists and zero points. Unfortunately, his stat line makes his effort look better that I thought it was.

I'd still keep Max in there

Cable is out where I'm at so I couldn't watch but sounds like Holt knocked dead! Anyone tell me whether Holt and Perea played at the same time much? Against bigger teams I think that's an option they'll need.
