Just as an example, you mention turning to the ball and the T yielding and taking the paint. This begs all kinds of questions about how long you stay strong side and what you watch when you're there.

Perhaps if you, or anybody, would talk about:
* When do you come strong side?
* What are you watching for when you're there?
* How does being strong side change your area?
* When do you return to your original side?
* How does all of this affect the T?
If you undersand when to come over for 3 man then you have answers for the first 4 questions. When the L comes over I as T like to take a step or 2 around the arc to referee the paint & far side action, and to be prepared in case I'm asked to help on a far side OOB call. Not too hard really.
From the things stated earlier, I'm guessing that I don't completely understand number 2. When I come strong side, I'm almost entirely concerned with the post play. Which means that I'm positioned looking through the strong side post players looking back into the lane. But it sounds like there are times when you want to take the whole strong side, south of the free throw line?

Unlike three man where you initiate a rotation and everybody shifts primaries, in two man there is no rotation and my primary is still the lane and back on the weak side. Or at least it seems that way to me. What am I missing?
