In all of the Tyler Ennis in hindsight retrospectives people really overlook the fact that he was really really bad at throwing a post entry pass.  He didn't know how to create the proper angle, where to throw the ball and more importantly when to throw the ball.  Additionally he never looked to pass on the pick n roll, he always shot or took it to the rim.

The other problem for Rak is that Melo sets that we ran last year really depended on CJ being the dominant guy and Rak was used as a decoy to free CJ up on the baseline just like we used Melo.  If we used Rak last year like we do this year he would have clogged up all the space in the paint for CJ and Grant who were perceived by coach as better offensive players. JB's offense is all about the small forward and guards dominating the ball and the stretch 4 getting the ball at the free throw line.  To JB's credit he's adapted his O this year to feature Rak but I do wonder what would have happened if we did so last year.  The results were good the few times we tried it but Ennis wouldn't stick with it.
