Now, we all know the plays where the Lead should NOT have a whistle will outnumber the others by a mile. Having come to that conclusion, what should that Lead plan for, to call across the lane slow whistle and all or not call across the lane? Common sense would say to plan not to make calls across the lane. Since the OP may get confused with backside help, stop right there! Don't call across the paint. If you feel like you just have to look over there, rotate over there. If you feel like you have to look out top too...well then you are watching the ball and that is a whole different subject.  |
Agreed in a basic sense to say don't call across the lane, but if I am C there is a skip and a quick drive out of my primary (not time to rotate) and B1 reaches in and grabs A1's arm and I am straightlined and don't get it then I would hope to hell that the L would help me out...better to have a late whistle than no whistle if it IS a foul...but correct, if you have to default into "don't call across the lane" and "do", then yeah stay out of there...
