Don't beat yourself up. In 2-man, you have to get what you can get. It is very difficult.
In 3-man, if there is a scoring play in the key, to be honest, all three guys should have a look. The question is, who has the best look? If the L is ballside, quite often they will have the best look, but if a post player turns inside, away from the L, quite often the C or T has a better look.
Same with calling across the key. If L does not get ball side, and the post player turns towards the basket, often the L has a better look than the C.
So it all depends on where you are positioned with respect to your partners, and who has the best angle. It's always best to stay in your designated primary areas, but the best crews know who has the best look and takes them.
