This is correct. L will go ball side to cover post action when ball is below free throw line on trail side and there is post action on T side. This puts L in best possible position to view post players in anticipation of entry pass from wing. L focuses on action in the paint and retains same primary coverage. T still has same primary coverage, if there is a shot attempt or skip pass T can take a step in to help with weakside coverage. In these situation L will wait until best opportunity to return to strong side coverage. If there is a transition while L is on T side, T will transition to new L same side and L will become the new trail while going over to side opposite new L. Hope this helps.
