Message: [QUOTE="SUFan44, post: 1731265, member: 39"] Our basketball team has always excelled when in transition. This year's team did not excel in that area because we didn't have A) a center that could rebound effectively enough so that one of our guards could leak out and B) a guard that could make a good decision on the fast break consistently. Gbinije was decent but not as good as others have been in the past. I think with Battle/Richardson/Howard, you have 3 guys who have the ability to take it coast to coast. And with Chukwu/Lydon/Roberson along the back line, those three should be able to gobble up more rebounds defensively so our guards can get some easy buckets when a three-pointer goes up and misses. I agree with you fundamentally that our offense isn't all that great in the half court, but it can work if you have guys who are willing to share the ball and make the right play, while also having the right personnel. Look at 2009-10. [/QUOTE]
