You've got this kind of backwards, somehow. In 3-whistle, the half of the lane that is closer to the C is not dual coverage, it is the C's primary and you should try
* to hold your whistle when there's contact there.
In 2-whistle, that area is the Lead's primary and you should
not defer to the Trail when there's contact there. A 2-whistle game is not the time for the Lead to practice holding his/her whistle to give a partner first shot at the call.
So turn it around. In your 2-whistle game be aggressive as the Lead on plays in the paint. In your 3-whistle games, force your C to be aggressive on those plays.
*Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try. (Hey, Episode III just came out. . .)
