But--I noticed I was not dropping down to help with the back-side rebounding action like I normally do on other shots when at trail. I kinds froze out there leaving my partner to handle any subsequent action on the rebounding.

David, on the three point shot, this is a problem for me too, as girls tend to bunch up around the ball. What I try to remember to do is to step directly toward the sideline, and about two steps toward the endline, and turn to situate myself more like a center in 3-whistle. This way I can keep a view toward the rebounding, and also have the shooter in my peripheral vision. When I do it right, it works pretty well.
