I don't remember but a couple or three issues in bring the ball up court ONCE IT WAS IN PLAY. The hard part was getting it in bounds and safely into our hands. We had few assists because (1) our 3pt shots weren't going in (so a pass to an open 3 wasn't an assist), even if open and (2) it was tough to pass inside. I wouldn't blame this loss on the PG play.
(I do wish we'd found a way to burn them on putting a big, slow player defending on the inbounds. If Cam or whomever had run back fast (making the opponent run), we might have been able to get some passes to the inside, or at least tire out their limited bigs and use our depth to advantage later in the game.)
At the start of the 2nd half, I noticed our two first shots were set up on the three, draw the defender, and then step in for a bit shorter shot. Maybe we should have done more of that.
After today, I think we can agree that the answer to this question posed by BBC is yes.
