Can we please make a few more stops?

 

[Stanzi]

Jesus even when we play defense they just chuck it up and fucking make it.

 

[thedukeofearl]

JoeW stops the pain

For a while

Huge basket

 

[Cableman]

We're over rated, that's for sure but it's still early

 

[99topdawg]

60% shooting vs. 42%. If that evens out at all, we're fine.

 

[GoHawks24]

Pitt on pace for 92 points. Back to thinking that we don't need to play defense. That didn't last long.

 

[judzeehawk]

Naturally it went in. Hawks better show up this second half or they'll be run out of Carver. All my excitement is gone. That didn't take long.

 

[tmess1989]

Dribble penetration is killing us.

 

[STILLBUSTER]

I will say this...no f-ing way Pitt gonna stay as hot as they’ve been. Although, they are making shooting ad scoring look pretty easy right now

 

[ForeverHawk]

I don’t know how some of you get through Iowa basketball games without having a stroke or heart attack. Down by 6 at half, Pitt shot lights out, Iowa didn’t play well. Relax during half, we’ll see what the 2nd half brings.

 

[mopkins]

Iowa with 7 turnovers and got out rebounded. Only in this game because they're shooting 53% from 3

 

[SheagleHawk]

Well I hope Tyler has been keeping up with the books bc there is zero chance he gets drafted.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Surely they can't play like this the second half

Everything going their way

Not looking good, Lads

Severe reality check

 

[LicThawk]

Not sure how u cant get some bodies in the paint. that's lack of aggression.

 

[smhawk]

No sure why jordan was out there for defense only possession

 

[TheIowaHawkGuy]

This loss will help bring fans back...

 

[Stanzi]

Getting out rebounded by a much smaller team, too.

 

[lightning1]

It's really frustrating watching this game because it feels like watching last year's team. No semblance of an offense. Lazy ass defense.

It's hard to get a team to commit to playing good defense for an entire season, that never put much effort into it before. Fran has to dog them in every practice, to make sure they don't slide back into old habits. He has to bench them in games when they return to bad habits.

 

[SheagleHawk]

Why do we just let teams rain open threes?

Bc every team we play has guards that can break down our guards at will. After they beat their man it's an easy kick out to guys standing wide open on the perimeter

Layups are a high % shot. If you can't stop that you stink at defense.
