Fast Break vs. Press Break

Heard a great way of looking at the fast break.  If the other team misses then your team runs like crazy trying to get a quick layup and/or shot in transition before the defense sets itself up.  If the other team scores then you have a secondary ball handler take it in to a primary ball handler and bring it up in a 'flow' type of action.  The coaching staff wants to run but the onus is on the defense to stop the opponent.  If the other team's offense can't be stopped then we really can't run and we will have to take our time b/c we are going to have to score repeatedly to stay in the game.
