Referee th defense. If you feel like you are watching the ball too much you probably are... It's the defender, (primary and secondary you need to watch) you know where he ball is going. ( some place to the basket) Learn to read the plays you need to know when screens are coming.. etc.

When the ball is in your primary you have the ball but it may be you just need to expand your vision a little, You may need to take a step back and open up.

Where are all the players? You do not have to ref all 10 players if they are in the area. If ball is your lead has off ball calls. You just have to pick up the screens and drives from up high...

I have noticed that the biggest rookie mistake is that they watch the ball- off ball is so hard... Once you learn good off ball coverage you wont care what the ball does. Heck when I go to a NBA or college game, or even another hS game, I watch off ball. That's where the action is---
