This is prime time for Dion, KJo, & Scoop to show why they are the best players on the court. 
 
No more fadeaway jumpers & ill advised 3 pointers, it's time to use your speed & strength to drive the ball down the opponents' throats on nearly every possession. They have been trying to play from the outside in, & it's not necessary.
 
They may not have a strong center, but they have dribble drive speed to draw the defense away from the hole, where the guards can dish to an open RAK or BMK at the rim. Even if the defenders don't cheat up, our guys will just keep going in for the layup. We can score an automatic 60 -65 points per game just on these types of plays, not counting any fast break points we will get. You can also feed more open jump shooters from this.
 
If we face an especially quick defender, you bring in a picker to clear him out for the drive. 
 
I am still shocked they are not doing this enough, & it's a waste of talent. You can be effective in a zone or man defense with this.
