THJ is singlehandedly killing our team tonight.

The zebras need to step their game up.

Anytime we shoot less than 20% from three it's going to be difficult for us to win a lot of games. Hopefully the shots start falling soon.

Stauskas needs to knock down a couple shots to get us on top. Not sure we pull away in this game.

Omg are they in the bonus already

Finally a call for us.

That was pure from GR3.

Fuk that ref specifically.

McGary is looking a little inelegant.

bit

These refs have been pretty terrible. That is NOT a charge. Not even close.

come on.

LOL ball meet face.

Oh you bet Dixon worked over the refs during halftime. The foul differential now is ridiculous in Pitt's favor as it was in Michigan's favor the 1st half. 

McGary needs to harness his ANGAR

Let's do this

That was a flop.

Time for GR3 to take over this game

We just can't get a break to tie it. It's unreal.

To the lead tonigjt

lead here and keep it

When we get to the line, we gotta convert.

Calm down 'yall we got this!

There you go THJ.  Let's get something going now.

Timmmmaayyy

GO bLuE !!!

After watching those first three games this game feels incredibly low scoring.

that guy is cool in my book

Have graduated from serviceable to annoying this half

If the defense can force tough shots and a few more turnovers, I like GR III and THJ taking over and winning the close one.

Our youth is really telling.

keep using the 1-3-1 pitt does not know what to do with themselves

We have the lead ermagherd

zomg a lead! Take a picture while it lasts

!!!!!

Man, GRIII has a pretty, pretty J.

This sure doesn't feel like a game in November.

<3

GRIII!!!!!!

About time we had a run! 

you are so fucking lucky we're not leading by more....let's put these punks away

Man, I love McGary. Did you see his absolute insanity coming off the bench. I have a feeling he's going to be my new favorite player. Super raw, but I see the 6'10'' Novak comparisons.

Here's where we start to do our thing, keep pushing on offense and suffocating them on defense!

It sure is going to be fun to watch this team get better...  No limit to what they can accomplish.

YEHS!

Buckets falling now

is it customary for the PA announcer to announce the score after every basket? If I was at the game I'd find it annoying.

Pitt has missed soooo many easy shots

We've had our struggles on offense tonight, but I must say I'm impressed with our defense.  Absolutely smothering at moments tonight. 

Suddenly, the game went from frustratingly close, to excitingly close. FINSH.

This is a good game for a young team. Big stage against a quality opponent with adversity and they are reacting well. A game to build off of.

It really shows the resolve of our guys to break that tie and take the lead. Also JB is coaching really well regardless of what other people wo have never played a lock of basketball in their life have stated

Michigan turning it up right now.  Go Blue!

this daggar in Pitt's back now yo!!!!

These are the type of games that toughen our team up.

Call the back door alley oop play. Especially if we get a stop here. Kill their spirit.

The kids!

Wait - they called a foul on McGary there?

The ball

That was a phantom foul there.

Terrible call on that foul, his arms were not even touched on his drive, BS.

all I know is I want one of those Adidas shirts they're wearing for warmups.......... anyone seen them online??

I there a continuation rule anymore? Doesn't seem like it.

Dat Offensive Rebounding.

Great offensive rebounding on these last two possessions.

Once this game? Please?

...

THJ waking up these last 10 minutes good to see. Closer.

has stepped it up in the 2nd half yo!!!

We lookin' good, I like teams that finish strong

Smh...

Morgan utilize a pump fake on those offensive rebounds. Power it up big fella!

The zone is noticeably better this year with the length of some of the young kids, it's so much harder to throw across it with kids like Stauskas and Robinson.

Beating Pitt doesn't count as beating someone?

Stauskas has solidified a spot in the starting 5 at this point. Mitch at the sixth man and vogrich there to spell whoever depending on the size we are looking for in the rotation

How the hell did Hardaway even know where he WAS on that shot?

TH JUUNAH

WE ON

The Garden is in Big Ten country now!

That 1-3-1 is amazing.

We may be pretty good this year???

That foul was a bit silly there by Burke.

Our rebounding has won this game for us if we hold on

no need to foul there buddy

Lessons learned, good to build on, nice win.

NIK STAUSKAS IS OUR SEX CANNON.

Burke...why?

That hurt

Trey's shot selection there wasn't any better than the last foul he took. 

Why

Burke hasn't made great decisions this game

Why?!

!!!!!

Last minute and a half has been half assed, no reason it should be a 3 point game right now.

Wtf burke? No way beilein drew up that shot, also damn horford is in street clothes, that can't be good

This is Amaker stuff!

I am a large fan of Robinson III and Stauskas

Make. Free. Throws.

Mitch vocal

Clutch free throws by GRIII

We on

McGary for Head Cheerleader.

That foul call was a gift...

Just make our FTs...

If GRII had come to play with the Fab Five like he considered after the fact.

some awesome FT shooting down the stretch....by everybody

man, we are gonna be so good this year

Some huge free throws down the stretch.  It's nice to see.

I love Dakich ragging on the refs. Get outta the huddles!

M 87 - K State 62

Jeez, we are catching some breaks late in the game.

Christmas season started early for this officiating crew. 

After TB's first free throw to put Mich up 58-62. Interesting, given that the CW is that his defense is preventing him from starting.

And stauskas is liquid gold

Stauskas is just robotic from the line.

SPIKE!

clutch free throws not defense

Good grief...

Why foul there???

There Burke goes again

You're playing for Michigan, not the Knicks!

These announcers seem to really like Pitt.

not playing for our team tonight?

That would have been a foul in prison.

We have tried to hand the game away. Luckily the refs haven't let us.

Holy shit we are lucky, we may win this game and its important to win tough ugly games but damn this game certainly doesn't inspire confidence

money bucket

BEAT OHIO

Game

Blouses

Beat Ohio chants lol, love it.

AND THE BEAT OHIO CHANTS BEGIN!

Awesome

Haha Beat Ohio!!!

Love the "Beat Ohio" chant in MSG.

Nice chant

BEAT OHIO!!!

Gotta love it. 

beat ohio

Beat Ohio

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE BEAT OHIO CHANT AT THE END.

Michigan... you must learn from this. Build off of this. Nice tough effort, but not the SMARTEST. Closed it out with clutch free throws and some big stops (around when they finally took over the lead). But they didn't play very smart in the final minutes. Good win. Learn from it.

ALSO, BEAT OHIO! *CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP*!

BEAT OHIO!!!!!!

Beat Ohio!

Tough battle, good experience for the team.

Now BEAT OHIO!!!

Beat Ohio!

Goodnight!

Thanks for the foul, Pitt. 

I liked the free throw shooting from the team overall today. It'll go a long way in the tournament.

Also, Beat Ohio. YAIS.

"BEAT OHIO" chant warms my heart.  

Go Blue.

So isn't this the first time we've won at MSG under Beilein?  Pretty good accomplishment I'd say.

Great win! Go Blue! BEAT OHIO!

Beat Ohio!

I think in the long run this will end up being a good win for our tournament resume. Pitt has a decent team, even if we didn't play our best.
