This is the kind of topic that makes basketball so interesting. Even when you have players with the inclination, physical makeup, and skill to run, there are other factors. Rebounds* are certainly key, but even when you rebound, positioning and good outlet passes are critical. Our positioning recently has been compromised by the overall poor rebounding of our bigs. Even when our front court players did rebound, my recollection is Bazz and Boat circling back to get the ball. Our front court have been poor outlet passers...hence KO may have aborted the running approach.
If Hamilton collected a rebound and saw a lane, he was gone. Purvis likes to get up a full head of steam. Boat seemed like he wanted to go and Bazz loved to throw the bomb down court.
*There are some that will say that we used to run off of made shots. While we feasted on this for a number of years, I think that to a large extent, opposing coaches know this about us and prepare for it.
