Basket Line ...

In a real game, using common sense, if I'm the new Trail, I will set myself up depending on the the timeout position of my partner.

If he's tableside for a thirty second timeout, I will be ready to administer on the endline opposite tableside. If he's opposite tableside for a sixty second timeout, I will be ready to administer on the endline tableside.

Keeps my partner (on the jump ball circle) from having to cross the basket line.

No citations for this, never instructed to do this, it's just me.
