PITT/CUSE InGame Thread

'Cuse off too a dominating start but Pitt is starting to calm down and slow the game down. Thoughts?

[BoutDemCowboys]

slowwww down is fine with me as I have the under...... This syracuse team has gotten off to a firy start! Melo is too big of a presence in the middle! Watch out!

[Ambition]

My Pitt +7.5 1H isn't looking to well right now

This wasn't a good start for the under takers.

[BoutDemCowboys]

U got time....... Not a bad bet at all. Syracuses depth will slaughter Pitt in the second half!

[Ambition]

Yeah I do, Pitt is battling back right now and playing well and making 'Cuse take outside shots.

[Ambition]

The way 'Cuse plays defense so well makes Pitt continue to pass the ball around and waste the shot clock down to below 5 almost every possession and could mean a lot less possessions for both teams.

[Ambition]

WOW!

[alamo]

Both teams running and gunning and shooting with shot clock on 25s+

Yeah they are starting to play a fast tempo game right now but early on Pitt was taking very long to shoot and was forcing shots.

[Ambition]

Totally irrelevant to this thread but just won my bet for the Celtics v OKC game that the Celtics would be the first team to score 10

[alamo]

Both teams have shot the ball atrociously this half. This game is going to be in the 150+ if they pick it up 2h

Hahaha congrats! If I happen to blow the under on this Cuse game I could care less, as long as Cuse smokes em!

[Ambition]

Yeah these teams have shot poorly and the 1H total is still pretty high for such a bad shooting performance.

My Pitt +7.5 1H is out the window, I don't see that happening the way this game is playing out.

[alamo]

50 shots attemped and there's still 2mins plus change left in the qtr. Enough said what im doing for 2h

[BoutDemCowboys]

Cuse at 2 half? Im thinking yes!

[Ambition]

Wow what a shot!

[BoutDemCowboys]

Whoever has Pitt+7.5 1st half must be shitting themselves! wow

[Ambition]

I need the score to stay like this and I will win my bet!

[Ambition]

Wow...

[BoutDemCowboys]

Wow losing by the hook. Efff that man! Im hittin Cuse 2nd half. Havent seeen a line yet

[BoutDemCowboys]

Dion Waiters blew that spread for ya

[BigDofBA]

Hit the under for the first half by 1.5 points. Pretty awesome that the final length of the court shot hit the front of the rim at the buzzer.

I've already been beaten by three half court shots this year so I was expecting it there.

[Ambition]

Dion Waiters blew that spread for ya

Yes he did. That was bad defense as well. The 1H total was 61.

[BoutDemCowboys]

Ouch! but good win for ya today BigDofBA!

[Ambition]

What are you guys doing for the 2H? 'Cuse is -5.5 and the O/U is 73.

[BoutDemCowboys]

Im thinking of pounding -5.5! Pitt will get tired and get ran out of the gym 2nd Half!


Anyone else on suggestions?

[BigDofBA]

Ouch! but good win for ya today BigDofBA!

Thanks man.

The worst beat of my life had to be when I had Oklahoma +1 against Washington State this year. OU was "winning" by one point and was holding for the last shot. With three seconds go in the half, OU "missed a dunk", the ball squirted right the Washington State guard. He heaved a 3/4 quarter shot that went in to beat me by one point at the buzzer. I don't think I will ever get over that.

You think you have a guaranteed winner when you're up 2 holding the ball for the last shot. Guess not.

[Ambition]

Hmmm I don't know who to take...

That would mean that 'Cuse would have to win by 16+

O/U went to 73.5 now

[BoutDemCowboys]

Shiitttt I remember that! Thats a tough one to swallow!

[BoutDemCowboys]

YEah I agree with ya 16+ is alot..... But honestly Cuse looks good, Pitt doesnt look awful, Cuse could easily outplay them 2nd half. Maybe just not touch it.

[Ambition]

I'm leaning towards 'Cuse -5.5 because that 1H was dominated by them, IMO.

[Ambition]

I've decided not to make a play for the 2H and just root for my u136 play.

[BigDofBA]

I think Cuse rolls them in the second half. Pitt threw in a few lucky threes to keep it respectable.

[BoutDemCowboys]

Yeah fuk it im in on it! Lets get it!
