Yeah I'll believe the transition when I see it. We haven't run in 4-5 years. This team is constructed to win half court rock fights. If everything else happens we should be better than an 8 seed.
I'm not really sure what you mean by 'run', but for me what we're talking about is quick offense and this past year's team was the highest scoring group we've had since 09-10, which I would consider one of the top offenses since the late 80s. Regardless, while I'm not sure last year's team was a run-and-gun fastbreak team, they scored well and they scored often in either transition (break/secondary break) or early shotclock situations. And that was with no depth.
I tend to agree we're unlikely to see the tempo and high-flying offense we saw in the late 80s and I also agree that it's a bit of wait and see situation with this group, but I actually think last year's offense was pretty effective in transition, all things considered.
