Run and Gun(Up tempo) BYU Basketball Offense
Written by: JohnBYU hasn’t looked like the run and gun offense and even up tempo isn’t quite what I’d say either. BYU just doesn’t have the athletes to do that. The Phoenix Suns are the best thing I could think of as far as a run and gun offense and I don’t see any Amare or Marion on BYU’s team and all of our guards are a long shot from Nash(although Balderson is also Canadian).
I will say that from the few games I’ve seen video or live and more specifically in the second half of the Utah game they really did a good job getting the ball down to Plaisted so he could do some work. I think Plaisted is rushing the shot and needs to have a little more patience down there. Also, he needs to work on delivering the ball from the post. This will come with time and more importantly when the double teams start coming. I like this a lot better than Ainge running down court, kicking it to Rose and him throwing up the 3.
