3)The partner who starts the count should try and maintain it. It's harder than hell imo to figure out where the count is if you didn't start it. Quick look at your partner. If your partner keeps his count going, let him finish it. If your partner doesn't have a count, start your's if it's applicable.
Just one old guy's opinion.

JR - Thanks for the references. I agree with your thoughts thats it's hard to put a count on for a defender doing nothing other than standing 5' 11" away from the A1.
On 3, I was saying that IF A1 comes into my primary say from T to C and 1 ) T does not have a count on and 2 ) I have no idea if LFP was ever established, I really shouldnt have a count unless B1 get the chance to meet the req of LGP. Agreed?
Another curve ball here....You have a count, A1 dribbling w/ ball at the elbow. At your 4 count, he drives as if to start a layup. Suspend the count right? What if he then passes? Immediate 5 because you suspended the count?
I know this stuff sounds basic. I understand the rule, what I am looking for here is a concensus on how the rule is applied in practice.
