I was at the Gonzaga game last night. They push the ball after most defensive rebounds. Positives - 1. they got several uncontested layups due to confusion on the defensive end. 2. They got a number of 8 foot jumpers as they were slowed near the basket. 3. They got several totally uncontested three's as the defense was not organized. 4. They picked up a few fouls due to the defensive player put in a bad defensive position. Negatives - two turnovers.

IMO, with DTJ there is no reason for CKK not to get two/three players who can benefit from running. There are probably 10 assists just waiting there if we can pick up the pace at appropriate times.

DJ should be flanked by at least two guys who can play this way effectively and efficiently!
