If the C was helping on the press, there had to be other matchups than what was happening right in front of the T. I don't see how the C can see something right in front of the T by the feet if the C is doing his job and watching the other matchups.

My vision doesn't magically stop working at the edges of my primary. IF I've got my area coverd and CAN see some things out of it, how is it a bad thing to offer secondary coverage on that stuff? Again....I've got my area covered properly.
For all we know, the only matchups the C had to cover could have all near the endline with no one above the FT line or at mid-court...naturally leading his vision towards the throwin spot.
