It is ok for the L to come across in 2-man NFHS mechanics but I got burnt in a state championship game.
Ball settled in the post position, I had come across for the post action. A1 a little taller and heavier than B1 but B1 just playing good defense, playing straight up moving her feet, not allowing A1 to get to the basket. A1 makes a bad decision and threw the ball into the middle of a busy key and I was blocked out. Ball went OOB on my side line, which I called but had no idea who touched it last and neither did my partner (had I not come across the play would have been obvious to me I believe but at the same time I would not have had a good look at the post action and neither would the T). We went with AP but a big play in a 1-point game.
