if you have the best team and/or home court, play fast. If you have an inferior team, play slow.
i don't agree with that.
The fast paced tactic have their different strength and weaknesses, even with the same main focus. So you should take the one which fits best for the team, while usually the slow tactic makes troble when you are inferior because you get especially in the beginning not the looks your team is searching for which results in many bad shots.
