Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2449351, member: 405"] I have to ask - why aren't we running more [U]this [/U]year? We started out running more, but then Frank started putting the brakes on whenever he heads down the floor and pulls it out to set up our (awful) half court offense. I have to think that's on Boeheim, who has probably reamed Frank out about turnovers. But if you are risk averse at PG, then you don't try to make that risky pass on the break, or you don't take it to the rim. That's what I see out there. Now, with Ennis, you could almost understand his reluctance to run the fast break, because he was slow footed and so good at finding people in the half court. But we are averaging probably the fewest assists per made basket that I can ever remember as a team. I can understand Boeheim wanting to control tempo because we don't have enough shooters, but you can't turn down chances for easy buckets. [/QUOTE]
