`After Sumner went out with his Season ending injury on Sunday, both Ponds and Lovett went to the hoop much more forcefully than they had all game. they had stopped doing that as aggressively as in previous games. There are few BE guards that can stop their speed to the basket, if they get screens and lose the defender.
I like Ponds running the offense better than lovett as I think he is a better passer and, varies his moves more than Marcus. Ponds will stop and put up a floater and that keeps the defenses guessing. I also think Ponds doesn't get enough touches if Lovett runs the offense. Ellison, also doesn't give it up enough, even though he accumulates more assists.
If I were Mullin, I would think about alternating who runs the offense on every play. That would further put pressure on the defense. Just my theory. I trust in Mullin completely and, we are just a few Frontcourt Players from becoming a top half contender in the BE next year.
