Cards v. PITT

[Bardman]

Ugh, the WF game in a different arena so far. Cards can’t hit their outside shots and are struggling when getting the ball down low. They have kept the game close so far. Nyla…?? 2-3 TOs and she is 2-2 with hitting the side of the backboard.

 

[Bardman]

Every facet of the game - BAD.

 

[KozmasAgain]

I am unable to watch the game because I am traveling. The fact that we only have 21 points in the first half is not good. I was afraid that the WF game was going to show our opponents how bad we are in a half court game. Against WF we let them control the tempo I guess the same thing is happening in this game.

 

[PushupMan]

Didn’t realize that this one started at 6. Cards playing good defense here in the third quarter and have tied it up at 31. Out scoring Pitt 10-3.

 

[PushupMan]

Cards are crushing Pitt on the boards, but are ice cold from the floor (30% overall and just 14% from 3pt). Cards lead 35-33 going to the fourth quarter. Gonna have to grind this one out to get the W.

 

[Bardman]

Half-court offense is not very good.

 

[KozmasAgain]

I don’t understand why we aren’t pushing the ball up court faster and controlling the tempo. This is the same thing we did against WF and it will eventually catch up with us.

 

[PushupMan]

Offensive explosion! We were 3-21 from 3pt at one point, now 7-27 and lead by 10 (51-41).

 

[Bardman]

That wasn’t a flagrant foul. Good lord.

 

[Bardman]

Their ‘star’ center plows through people and doesn’t get called for much at all.

 

[Bardman]

Total BS. That gray haired ref is the worst.

 

[KozmasAgain]

Nothing unusual there I expect that to happen against us.

 

[PushupMan]

The “intentional/flagrant” foul interpretation is just odd. Neither of those “intentional” fouls were intentional or flagrant. I’m sure they hurt, but that’s not what the rule is intended for.

Cards have blown up for 44 points in the second half and have put the Panthers away. Now the big question is, can we give Georgia Tech a game?

 

[KozmasAgain]

The Ga Tech game will tell us where this team really is.
