Seems like Rose's offense played slower in his first years
With guys like Cummard, Plaisted, Keena Young etc. Seemed as though the teams looked more comfortable in half court sets than they do now. I haven't looked at the data for proof, just my recollection. Plus it seems that Rose's teams used to be money in closing out games during the last few years in the MWC, but that could have largely been the Jimmer effect.

Just some random thoughts. Love Rose and his general style of play, but the team seems to play a little "too" fast often times, and seems lost in the halfcourt more so than in years past. Wish Rose could tweak the system a bit to find a little more balance, but that is hard to do. The 2015 GS Warriors are a pretty good example of how fast offense can succeed in the half court, but of course they have some pretty unique players.

I worry about the development of our bigs in the pipeline and the top players in general. Seems like something is missing. Of course losing Mika was a huge factor, along with Austin and Aytes.
