Maybe I was just getting more than my share of close calls. I don't mind going to the AP arrow on occassion, but not every time the ball lands OOB in my primary.

Do you mean in closely double-touched situations? As in, two opponents touching the ball near-simultaneous? For me, it happens more when I'm the Lead than when I am the Trail, and more in girls games than in boys. My theory is that first, Boys are able to jump higher and grab stronger than girls are. Secondly, this happens mostly during rebounds of a missed shot. So again, more as a Lead, more in girls games than in boys.
I know I just opened myself up for debates. I got a few minutes before i gotta get ready for my game tonight
