Miami vs. Pittsburgh: Preview, Odds & How to Watch

View as article
First and foremost, all wins are good wins, especially in the conference. UNC struggled with FSU as well. Early conference games are always tough as every team still has hope.
The elder statesmen showed their value. Reneau is a really good player just as he was at IU.

I watched Donaldson play a lot last year with Michigan. Tonight is who he is; an inconsistent scorer who really turns it on in close games, and especially late in close games. Yes I would love for him to be as aggressive all game as he is late in games, but that isn’t who he is, and I wrote the same thing before the season started. But Donaldson is a winner; at Auburn, at Michigan and will be this season at Miami.

Weird game full of like 3-4 huge runs by both teams. The bench was awful

Marcus loss was big. At least we get/got Dante back.

88 has been mostly disappointing for me. He’s way too streaky for a European prospect. 11 is borderline unplayable. Noam just doesn’t play enough for any sort of sample size. He seems to have good vision but Jai doesn’t seem to trust him. Maybe I’ve got that bit wrong.

The rest of the bench is practice filler. Although Laboy hit a couple of good looking 3s in garbage time last go

We can't shoot. Once teams figure that out, it's going to be tough to score in conference play. That said, tonight was a good comeback, salute to Coach Lucas for pressing the right buttons coming out of halftime.

FT shooting won the game tonight, without it, there's no way Miami could have won this ballgame. Pitt was bad from the charity stripe, Miami connected, those points mattered.

True outside threat is the Achilles heel of this team.... wish Coach Lucas had prioritized signing at least one legitimate 3pt threat...

.. come tourney time, we are going to run up against some minnow team that goes off from the 3pt line and we not have any answers ...
