Even if we do not make the playoffs this year, this style of play will take advantage of strengths of many players on this flawed roster...

...it will therefore better showcase our players for possible future upgrades through trades...
Our flawed players will excell and increase their trade value as they can compete by shear athleticism in this free flowing system...

(this system will avoid relying on a single traditional pg to distribute, setting up halfcourt isolation plays and straight up 1 on 1 defense {instead you will see more cooperation help-D} - thereby hiding many of this roster's prominant flaws - this free flowing style will make players appear better than they are... like the bench players that scored in Frey's place in Summer league).

This style will should inflate their numbers, hide their deficiencies, and make individual players look better than they are... like many of the role players on the Sun's and Clippers and other running teams...

It is a win/win proposition...

it's funny, it's the same offense as in indiana to a T.
This is from 2002

Indiana - Coach Isaiah Thomas will unveil the Pacers new "Quick Offense" that he has been working on all summer. The offense is a combination of the triangle offense, the motion offense, and the UCLA shuffle offense, some of the most used offenses in modern basketball. With the up-tempo pace the Pacers plan to play, this offense should be a good way to utilize all of their talent.

Isiah is dumb, just inept
He needs a quick offense. When your roster consists of nothing but shooters and scorers you have to find a way to get them shots.

That's why the presence of Lee, Balkman, and to a lesser degree Collins should help ease the ball hogging problem.

Balkman might get some time because we have no 3's. QRich is a big SG and Woods is unsigned. Lee isnt a SF by any stretch, but he will probably see minutes there for the above reasons.

Collins isnt getting a minute with Marbury, Francis, Nate, Crawford and Q at the guard spots. To make it more fun for him all those guys are signed >3 years except Nate. Ah... the fun never stops when discussing the roster.
