Rudy isn't capable of throwing the ball up ahead unless their is a clear path. Rudy trying to split a small gap with a throw ahead pass is asking for trouble and 99/100 result in a turnover.
The game against the pacers was close to the best we have looked all season and was certainly the fastest we have played. This coincided with Rudy picking up his 10th rebound with a minute left on the clock and our guards getting more rebounds then they are used to. If not for the Pacers hitting some tough three's this game would have been a massive blow out. Now not every game would be played out like the one against Indiana and some will be slower and that will serve a greater purpose in achieving the W, however it is a far to simplistic view to suggest that Rudy get every rebound and us to not incorporate different ways of operating our offense. The more flexible we are and the different styles we can play make us a more dangerous team, so to not try it would be a waste. If it fails then it fails, might lose a couple of regular season games but if its successful that could be the difference during a playoff series, especially against a team like Memphis who are older and could be ran off the floor. On the other hand against a Houston or GSW you want to slow the game down.
