First,
I don't think your reason for going strong side should be any different this year then last. You should go strong side because you need to. Your need should not be based on the ball coming below the freethrow line and inside the arc. It should be because the ball AND post are over there. To me the only time you square up and take the ball in that area is if you are already over there.
For Instance
I am working normal and the ball is on T side of the court. Team likes to dump the ball into the post on that side. The post player is over there so I go to officiate the post. If the ball enters the "NEW" area in dicsussion, I as L am supposed to pick it up.
In My pregame the L will only pick it up if it's passed in there. If it's dribbled I think the T needs to stay with it.(they have the benefit of seeing the whole play).
So I am open for discussion on this subject.
