However, I've seen more coaches NOT use it for this purpose than use it.
I distinctly remember playing Rec League when I was younger and we were up by three with a few secs to go (before the 3 point arc was used). Our coach directed us into a 2-1-2 defense and had us stand at attention and not move. The other team inbounded the ball, went the length of the court and tried to draw the foul by having their point guard run right through our center (who was standing at attention). WHAM! Offensive fouls - winner, winner chicken dinner.
Now that I look back on it....I can't believe, at that level, they didn't call a block!
