Just watching USC game right now, and one of the announcers mentioned how much pressure the advance pass up the floor puts on the defense.
We dribble to ball up court a lot, mostly Smith or Eli. When we were hot, we were pushing that ball up court a lot more frequently with the pass, not just dribbling and running. Would be nice to get defenses on their heels a bit with some quick transitions, easy buckets. Control the tempo by changing up the pace here and there.
At some point, we will come up against a team that gets hot, and we will have to match that. That could be LSU, or could be later (hopefully!).
On a different note, really crazy how Brown has just disappeared. The problem with that is not only do we lose his production, we lose his emotion that comes with it. Really going to need him to find something.
