Pittsburgh at UNC game thread—Saturday 8 Feb 2025

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Cadeau another circus shot but Corhen responds 62-60

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble a running bank shot from the left and he is fouled at the last tv break 62-62

 

[NathanFielder]

Think UNC has played better today. Story of the season coming up here. How will they execute in the last 4 minutes to finish a close game?

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble a tt 63-62

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Lowe is fouled and at the stripe he gets two to drop but Lubin continues his big game with a hoop and another assist to Cadeau

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Lowe a layup after Davis misses a short jumper 66-65

 

[DaveChapelle]

Dammit Lubin

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Defensive stop for Carolina as Powell blocks a pass and the Tar Heels call a time out to set up a play with a minute to go

 

[NathanFielder]

9-1-1 possession works out for RJ there. By coincidence, they get a 2-for-1 too.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Davis a 16 foot jumper over Lowe and Pitt takes its last time out 67-66

 

[pittsburghheel]

Great play by Lubin to get the ball back but his inability to make a free-throw makes him a late game liability.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Nice defense as Lowe misses two from in close and he fouls out fouling Lubin who misses the front end of the important one and one but Lubin’s hustle keeps the ball with UNC

 

[Oak ridger]

Oh well, this team can't make a free throw.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Washington a better free throw shooter comes in but then Trimble also misses the front end of an important one and one. Damm that’s why it is called FREE THROWS

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

Lubin and Trimble just missed two front ends of a 1 and 1…now Pitt has a chance to win it. Gah Dammitttt

 

[DaveChapelle]

Trimble with the choke job

Washington isn't a good FT shooter

 

[Oak ridger]

Snake bitten again. Team has bad hands.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Trimble and Powell need to be the stoppers

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

ALMOST got a steal

 

[NorCalTarheel]

Trimble with the choke job

And then nearly wins it with his defense

 

[TarHeelFanJ]

WE SURVIVE

 

[NathanFielder]

Good for them to pull that thing out. The final-minute execution was pretty shambolic on both sides, lol.

 

[IDUNK4HEELS]

Carolina survives but they got a giant break as Leggett is bumped by Cadeau

 

[NorCalTarheel]

W is a W.

 

[NathanFielder]

Carolina survives but they got a giant break as Leggett is bumped by Cadeau

He also traveled when he initially got the ball on the final possession.

 

[DaveChapelle]

Carolina survives but they got a giant break as Leggett is bumped by Cadeau

Leggett initiated that contact. Elliot stood straight. Cadeau has stopped multiple game winners this year.

 

[DSouthr]

In thru the nose, out thru the mouth... If nothing else, this UNC team will keep you on the edge of your seat.

A "giant break" lmao, that was not a foul if that is what you are implying...
