When you watch teams in the process of winning. the ball is moving, the players are moving. What I remember most from Ernie is hearing him constantly shouting, "Move". Purdue is not a speed machine, but their movement, ball, player, created open shots at the basket and on the perimeter, also put them in position for the offensive rebounds. A lot easier to do everything when you're active, rather than 4 guys standing still waiting for the ball. Bamba should have a red light anytime he's more than 3 feet from the basket. Shelstad needs to shoot, but as Point, the responsibility of getting the offense to move is his. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
