Stat line from the Tourney... 3 points, 1-6 from the field, 1-2 from the line, 5 rebounds. He is a solid defensive player, but his offensive deficiencies slow down our entire offense when he is in the game. Generally speaking he struggles creating for himself, and for others, and when pressured turns the ball over very easily. Now that wright is back, I don't care to see him in the game unless we need a specific defensive stop, or are playing a team with a taller guard. What do you all think?

Pitt is good, but lets not forget they were 10-8 in conf, not a superior team by any stretch of the imagination. This is a game we should have won. NO EXCUSES for the rebounding margin. Our front line played like they were 5'10.

I can not comprehend giving up so many offensive rebounds. Losing is ok, it happens, and Pitt is a good team. But getting dominated on the glass like that shows an absolute lack of effort and intensity.

Pathetic game. The rebounding numbers would make you think we were a team of 5'10 players.

awful ewing...dribble the ball of your chin. Wallace was wide open for a kick three, and begging for the ball.

We can not complain about calls, they shoot more ft's because they attack the rim.

By the way, this game should not be close, I have never seen a team shoot so poorly from the line.

Rivers with an awful game...unless we need him for a very specific defensive assignment, he should not play, esp. with wright back. He is dismal offensively.

The rebounding numbers are pathetic, and inexcusable. No excuses for giving up so many offensive rebounds.

inova attacked the rim, and we fouled them, esp. in the first half. We didnt attack the rim until the second, and when we did, fouls were called, as we attempted 12 ft's in the second half. Roy's 4th foul was bad, a questionable one on freeman, and one on summers i recall...but we also got away with a few. Vernon Macklin is a fouling machine, and he got away with a couple, he realistically had 7 or 8 fouls. Inexcusable on vern's part, esp. when Roy already had 4, and Ewing had just come off after twisting his ankle.

vern commits his 5th...so now our options for big men...ewing(hurt) roy(4 fouls). Vern with a pathetic effort.

vern is not playing smart. Hibbert has 4, ewing is hurt, so vern decides its a good time to commit stupid fouls, and he now has 4...we're out of big men.

we need to get out of a zone of D, they are a team of guards and 3pt shooters, playing zone doesnt make any sense, ask cuse' after yesterdays game.

nova is shooting more ft's because they are attacking the rim, until the last 2 mins we were not. To be honest, the ref's are doing a decent job, theyve missed a few calls but nothing major. Roy's 4th was a bad call, but we've been getting away with some as well. ATTACK THE RIM!

This is awful. We had to know that the smoking 3pt shooting wasnt going to continue. In the first half we had 8 TO's and way too many fouls...that trend continues, and now we cant shoot...awful, awful basketball. Roy getting his 4th is not good, but in all honesty, he is the worst player on the floor today, he isnt doing anything on either end other than fouling.
