Lightbulb I disagree.

If the entry pass is imminent, then you run if necessary. What you don't want to happen is to be halfway across the lane as the big guy spins right into the defender's chest and you're straight-lined behind the defender. If the ball has settled high enough that you have time to walk briskly then that's what you do. But if you need to get there quicker, then that's what you do. JMO.
I am going to have to disagree with you on this one and totally agree with Tony. I have never been advised to run during a rotation. Not only will your partner possible miss your rotation, you should already be in some kind of position that walking will get you where you need to be. In other words, if you have closed down already, getting to the other side takes a much shorter time.

Peace
