Good teams will rotate, and good defenders who are quicker will deny out to
30' and can still deny the back door. Also, they will rotate from the opposite block shutting down the BD. Besides lack of quickness, we lack of a true point guard that can see the options and make our opponents pay with good passes anticipating rotations and slips.

If you have guys that are less athletic (BYU) they have to be knock down shooters with range like Toolsen or creative passers like Haws, and beasts inside like Yoeli. Which We didn't consistently have.

Opponents knew they could deny the pass and handoff without penalty and push us out to 30'. Difficult to make entry passes with a guy in your face 25' out.

Besides denying passes, most P5 would switch screens and handoffs. If we tried to slip the screens they rotated well. A good point guard has to be one step ahead and make the NEXT pass - to the guy who's man rotated not the back door or screen slipper. That takes a lot of communication, practice and guys with pretty high IQ ala Haws.
