TRANSITION SHOULD NOT EQUAL MORE TURNOVERS

"The most important thing in the break is to get there with the ball, and then work to get a good shot...Everybody says, 'If you run, you're going to have more turnovers.' I never accepted that. If you can handle the ball you can handle the ball. If you can handle the ball under the pressure of good half-court defense, you sure as hell ought to be able to handle it in full-court play against very little pressure."
