Not saying I get there everytime, but it's pretty darn close! Assignors & coaches alike certainly notice ones hustle when doing this, compared to backpeddaling or consistently trailing the play.
So I'm trail near division line and suddenly a steal and a throw down court to a streaking 18 year old male athlete and I'm expected to be in position 'A' to accept play?

On a steal, I may have a tussle for ball right in front of me. I'm not immediately bailing out and leaving the 'scene'. I understand hustling into position, but I think your clinicians are being a little unrealistic.
