running is a basic function of any sport

If you ever notice Charles Barkley running back up the court away from your vantage point, you have to notice how artfully he runs. He is moving like everyone else but with more grace. Bobby Doerr's moves were so well coordinated it was an exhilarating experience just watching him move over to scoop up a routine ground ball. Like Barkley he sort of flowed with events to connect them all together.
