I thought this team played better once they ran up the floor more in the first half

Wonder why they start their offense so slowly at times.
I'm not asking them to be Houston or State but they should get their offense in an attack position much sooner in the shot clock.

We have bigs that can run
Wings like Lee McD and Timmy when he returns who can fill the wing or corner 3

It's the PG.

Jack is a vet steady PG but he doesn't push the ball at all. Frank does but can't make the decisions for big minutes and role yet.

If we want to make the playoffs (1 win out right now) we need more offense. This can easily be accomplished if we get a PG that can push the ball.

By the way Jeff Hornachek has said many times he wants them to run up the court more but the starters don't. Yesterday was the first time I saw Jack and Lee do it in the first half and Frank came in and did it even more. However second half we reverted.

103 points a game is not enough in today's league. We need to get into our offense much sooner. It easily can be the difference in being a 37 win and 42 win team at seasons end IE playoffs or lottery

We don't have the roster that fits his system. Even when jack and frank pick up the pace, the rest of the team does not, kp, lee, kanter, lance, they don't run the floor.
THJ is the only player that knows how to consistently play up tempo
