My concern is you can leave a sideline exposed as the manual has you position your umpire toward the uncovered sideline.
What if you get a block and the ball goes toward that sideline?

CANADIAN MECHANICS:
This is also the formation for 5-man FGA in Canada.
The R is supposed to go to wide side, but I prefer the short (empty) side to cover the sideline if needed.
