You don't beat a press by keeping the ball where the defense is. You beat it by getting the ball and offensive players where the defense aint.

It wouldn't go where the defense is. It would go to that sideline where the trap (three players, remember) is now behind the play.
But I'm obviously wrong. I mean, I started this thought with the wonderment that no one does this, so clearly it's not useful.
Now you know why I'm a (low-level) ref, and not a coach (at any level).
