the floor,shoot the three and pass to a guy coming off of a screen?  I
think Dee and Dana can contribute. Rick`s style is a Tony Delk type player,
 a former  point guard that won a national championship.  This should tell
you the type point guard he is looking for.

Unfortunately the NBA's version of the Run & Shoot,  as in the NFL,  has
failed miserably.  Just ask Jerry Tarkanian & Paul Westhead who had
successful college programs with this style but were major flops in the
NBA.  Defense is a key to success.
