are so valuable because they leave the offensive player with the ball just a few feet away from the hoop. Most of the time, wouldn't you want to just go right up with it?

Of course there are times when you're surrounded by defenders after bringing down the board and if you've got wide open shooter, then sure pass it out. But my guess is at least half the time, you're better off just going right back up with it--especially if you're Keba.
