No Rookiedude, I don't use it. That's why they allow us to bounce the ball to the player now. I give the player a stop sign, telling him not to move. Then I back out and bounce the ball. The L should be focusing on the lane, not counting and chopping the clock.
Yeah, that's how I like to do it also Tony.
I guess I was just trying to figure out where this mechanic came from. Maybe it is a women's college mechanic...come to think of it a partner of mine use to do women's college and he is one of the guys I saw using it.

Thanks.
