So...in 2019? 2020? 2021?
Love Dirk, but we've got a roster that should be running, but Rick forces us to play halfcourt so Dirk can keep up. With a guy with the athleticism of Dennis Smith, we should be pushing it all 94 feet. As much as people hate Powell, the dude runs it well and that leads to a lot of free oops and runouts. Barnes is good on the break as well. We're also looking at drafting Bamba, Jackson Jr., Porter Jr., or Bagley, or Bridges-- all of whom are built to run.
Really hope we pick up the pace next season-- until we realize that we're not making the playoffs. Then I hope we hamstring ourselves again by forcing a run-first team to slow it down.
